Bass Works is Brown's second book of original compositions, and includes a companion CD of him performing all 10 pieces from the book. For this publication, he has enhanced his own legendary artistry with accompaniment by outstanding artists on piano, cello, drums and percussion. As with his first book, Compositions for Bass, the companion CD can be utilized as a play-a-long. Brown's work has earned strong endorsements from Bass Player Magazine and the Boston Globe, in addition to such jazz greats as bassist Henry Grimes, trumpeter Cecil Bridgewater, renowned classical bass soloist Gary Karr, and Neil Courtney, assistant principal bassist of the Philadelphia Orchestra. This publication is a must for bassists, and has great listening value for other musicians as well as non-musicians. The inspiration behind both books was to contribute to the repertoire of material available for bass soloists. It was also my goal to compose pieces that I thought musicians might find fun and interesting to play, and to include challenging pieces to elevate their technical skills -Tyrone Brown

Jazz Conception is a new and exciting way for players at all levels to learn the language of jazz! Each book/CD set features 21 solo etudes based on chord changes to standards and blues.
The same 21 etudes transposed and adapted for the main jazz instruments.
See and hear how a well known soloist phrases and articulates and play along with or without the soloist on the CD.
Play along with one of todays finest, swinging New York rhythm sections: Mike LeDonne on piano, Dennis Irwin on bass, and Kenny Washington on drums.
Start out fairly easy, then get progressively more difficult.
Use the etudes as a bridge to solos of the masters that are usually more complicated and involved.
Learn melodies and lines that will give you a solid jazz vocabulary and musicality.
Use the book/CD sets for private lessons, for self-study, or in any combination up to a full jazz ensemble, including flute and clarinet.
If you are more advanced you may want to use the book to develop your sight reading abilities, for transcribing the etudes off the CD (then check against the book) or for just having fun playing along with a great jazz rhythm section.
Use as an improvisation study, learning how to construct a swinging, logical solo ' works especially well in combination with the Study Guide.
The Jazz Conception Series is also perfectly suited for the class room. It can be used to develop younger students jazz style in a big band or small group. In an improvisation class the teacher can use the etudes as studies in improvisation. The Study Guide provides an analysis of each etude, along with practice assignments for each etude.
