With Reading Key Jazz Rhythms: French Horn Book & CD set by Fred Lipsius, you will learn essential jazz rhythms first hand from world-class professionals! Reading Key Jazz Rhythms is a collection of 24 easy to medium level jazz etudes, and 24 simplified guide tone versions of the etudes. They are ideal for learning the basic language of jazz, swing phrasing, and articulation. A perfect tool for preparing for the jazz ensemble or for any other ensemble/orchestra which performs jazz related music (pops orchestras, musical, studio, movie scores, concert and marching bands, etc.). Each etude is based on a specific rhythm or a combination of rhythmic figures. Some etudes sound like very lyrical improvised jazz solos, while others are more like a melody to a standard. On the accompanying CD the soloist demonstrates the 24 melodious etudes together with a professional rhythm section. You can also improvise along with the play-along tracks using the chord symbols. The guide tones are the essential or defining notes for each given chord type. So if improvising is new to you, and you find yourself getting lost, you can always return to a guide tone and play rhythmically around it. Any etude and its corresponding simplified guide tone version can be played together as a duet (with or without the CD accompaniment) with your teacher or a friend.

In diesem Lehrwerk wird der erklarende Text bewusst in den Vordergrund geruckt. Schuler und Lehrer werden umfassend uber didaktisch-methodische, musikalische und technische Fragen informiert. Die Ubungsstucke und Lieder - jeweils fur Horn in B und F beginnend im kleinsten Tonumfang mit systematischer Einfuhrung der Ventile - sollen den Spass am Hornblasen fordern. Theoretische Abhandlungen uber Ansatz, Atmung etc. sind an den Schluss gestellt, damit die praktischen Anleitungen fur den Anfanger nicht unterbrochen werden. Musikalische Grundkenntnisse werden aus zweierlei Grunden vorausgesetzt: Zum einen erweist es sich haufig, dass Hornschuler bereits in der musikalischen Fruherziehung das Notenlesen gelernt haben und zum anderen, dass bei vielen Horn das zweite Instrument ist, das sie spielen wollen. Im 2. Band findet sich geeignetes Unterrichtsmaterial sowie entsprechende Literatur, womit der gerade den Anfangsschwierigkeiten entwachsene Hornschuler seine Technik auf lockere und spielerische Weise stetig vervollkommnen kann. In allen 12 Tonarten gibt es leichtere und schwierigere Ubungen, die Lehrer und Schuler dem jeweiligen Ausbildungsstand entsprechend auswahlen konnen.
