Brubeck: Nocturnes

This book of nocturnes is directed toward the music teachers who do not teach Jazz and to their students who are not yet committed to learn Jazz improvisations. Some of my piano books contain improvisations transcribed from my recordings important for jazz students who wish to study how improvisations develop from basic thematic and harmonic material. However these Nocturnes pensive in mood are complete in themselves and I hope they will serve as a bridge for the classical pianist to understand the music that is often the foundation for my Jazz performances. Dave Brubeck
