The goal of Modal Jazz Composition & Harmony, Volume 2 is to continue the dissemination of information that presents a path of study for the aspiring jazz composer. Where Volume 1 of the book emphasized the preparation of a modal harmonic foundation, this volume will introduce concepts of melody writing and a study of the styles of jazz compositions that are an intrinsic addition to the contemporary jazz composer's repertoire. Also included are chapters on harmonization and reharmonization techniques---as many of the concepts presented reflect an influence of Gil Evans, Duke Ellington and Charles Mingus as well as those of Herbie Hancock---and on pentatonic tunes that are harmonized with a modal harmonic foundation. As with Volume 1, an appendix with additional peripheral information is included for the student desiring theoretical explanation and additional examples. Titles: Chapter I: Melody * Chapter II: Reharmonization * Chapter III: Pentatonics * Appendices.

The goal of Modal Jazz Composition & Harmony, Volume 1 by Ron Miller is to show the student the means to develop latent creative abilities by offering the unfettered environment of the chromatic-modal system and free asymmetric form. The freedom of the approach will allow the composer to express him/herself in any style: post 50s jazz, ECM, fusion, pop, classical, etc., that is not tied to any harmonic particulars.

Un’ opera fondamentale che non può mancare negli scaffali di chi studia, pratica e compone musica oggi. Si tratta probabilmente a oggi del più riuscito sforzo di organizzare il linguaggio armonico modale, fornendo un metodo rigoroso e libertario allostesso tempo, che seguito con attenzione può dare risultati eccellenti a musicisti con vari livelli di preparazione.Ricco di esempi dalle convincenti sonorit , con passi propedeutici che portano il lettore a ottimi risultati, contestualizzati di volta in volta attraverso il collegamento a esempi tratti da opere pubblicate (anche dalla musica classica del primoNovecento). Nella sapiente traduzione di Roberto Spadoni la fondamentale opera di Miller diviene finalmente accessibile per svelare i molteplici universi dell’armonia modale.
