These methods provide complete courses for players off all ages, guiding students from their first note to 'classics', together with compositions by contemporary writers. Each book is accompanied by high quality rhythm section tracks recorded on compact disc. Right from the start, students can enjoy authentic jazz sounds, playing in the company of professionals. With step-by-step instruction and a progression of specially written pieces, the fundamental elements of good technique are introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz. Improvisation is encouraged from an early stage and is given direction through the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice on ear-training and chord patterns. With supplementary suggestions for listening and reading, and an Appendix containing all the chord progressions for 'live' accompaniment of the tunes, The Jazz Methods are ideally suited to both students working alone and those learning with a teacher. John O'Neill has a solid understanding of jazz and how it can be taught. I highly recommend his educational jazz materials. (Jamey Aebersold) ...a rare opportunity for a new player (or a more experienced one) to develop a really musical facility. A rare addition to the jazz improvising library. (Lee Konitz, international jazz saxophone soloist) Following on from the best-selling Jazz Method for Saxophone, Developing Jazz Technique for Saxophone will help intermediate players take their jazz skills to a new level. The 22 pieces are written in a variety of jazz styles, including reggae, jazz waltz, bossa nova, calypso, New Orleans, South African, salsa, samba, blues and swing. Special emphasis is given to helping students improvise over chord sequences, such as the II-V-I progression. Idiomatic effects such as vibrato, subtone, glissandi and 'bending' notes are dealt with, and there is a special chapter on overtones. Several new scales are introduced, including the whole tone and diminished scales, and a special section on patterns contains many ideas for practising in all 12 keys. A superb rhythm section provides backing for all the pieces and exercises on the accompanying CD.

Even 40 years after his death, Louis Armstrong remains one of the most popular jazz trumpeters and singers of all time. In Louis Armstrong Medley, Naohiro Iwai has beautifully arranged Armstrong’s unmistakable version of the Russian folk song, Dark Eyes (1954). This is then followed by two of his greatest hits: the jazz standard, Georgia on My Mind (1930), which features a tenor saxophone solo, and When You’re Smiling (1929). Veertig jaar na zijn dood is Louis Armstrong nog steeds de bekendste jazztrompettist en -zanger ooit. Voor deze medley gebruikte Naohiro Iwai Dark Eyes, een van oorsprong Russisch volksliedje waaraan Armstrong in 1954 zijngeheel eigen touchgaf. Daarna volgen twee van zijn grootste hits uit jongere jaren: de jazzstandaard Georgia on My Mind uit 1930, die hier een solo voor de tenorsaxofoon bevat, en When You’re Smiling uit 1929.Louis Armstrong ist auch 40 Jahre nach seinem Tod einer der bekanntesten Jazztrompeter und -sänger.
