The Harmonic Approach. Beginning where the previous book finished, the acclaimed tutor Barry Finnerty has created yet another classic Serious Jazz Book for jazz soloists of all instruments. Barry Finnerty has worked as a recording artist with jazz legends like Miles Davis, The Brecker Brothers and the Crusaders. Taking the musical talents of virtuosi like these as his inspiration, he explains the key to better improvisation through a melodic approach to chord changes, how they interact and how they are used in context. Finnerty describes the possible uses and harmonic functions of a single note, not just to enhance your playing ability, but to show you the possibilities inherent in a different, harmonic approach to looking at particular notes. He also goes into detail on how to achieve melodic command of all the possible extensions and alterations of chords, as well as variations on common chord progressions. The Serious Jazz Book 2 will also help you effectively and practically apply the harmonic knowledge that you learned in the first volume. Not only this, but Finnerty features a great number of melodic examples that use all the chords and progressions previously learned. In this way, Finnerty expands upon and develops his previous edition to create an acclaimed guide to playing Serious Jazz as a solo musician

Collection : La Musique, c'est toi (You are the Music) Nombre de pages : 24 La musique, c'est toi est une série de recueils, souvent accompagnés de CD, regroupant des chansons qui sont porteuses d'enseignements musicaux spécifiques. Ces chansons encouragent le futur musicien, non seulement à apprendre, mais aussi à vivre la musique.
Les appareils auditif et vocal, tous deux régis par le système nerveux, induisent une interaction entre l'écoute et l'émission, notamment dans la perception de la hauteur des sons.
D'autre part, nous possédons tous un instrument de musique prodigieux et complexe, le corps, qui est trop souvent oublié par certains, voire gênant pour d'autres, lorsqu'il s'agit de bouger en musique. Il est donc intéressant d'associer à une mélodie, une expression corporelle, une gestuelle musicale.
Pour réunir ces deux notions, l'auteur propose des chansons simples et cocasses, dont les textes illustrent, selon les recueils, un phénomène musical particulier.
Etre la musique est l'objectif essentiel de ces recueils. La maîtrise progressive de points techniques, tels que la reconnaissance spontanée d'intervalles, d'accords, de rythmes et l'acquisition d'automatismes, permettront au musicien d'associer sans effort perception auditive, reconnaissance, interprétation.
Enfin, l'auteur invite les pianistes accompagnateurs à prendre, au gré de leur inspiration, autant de liberté avec les accompagnements écrits, qu'il a pu en prendre lors de l'enregistrement.
Joy Kane

Diplômée du Cleveland Institut of Music (Ohio) et de l'Institut International de rythmique Jaques-Dalcroze de Genève, Joy Kane s'est installée à Paris en 1981. Durant les vingt années pendant lesquelles elle a vécu et enseigné en France et en Europe, sollicitée pour ses ateliers de rythmique, d'improvisation et de technique vocale, ses interventions et stages dans les écoles de musique classique et de jazz, les centres polyphoniques ou même dans le cadre de l'Education nationale, ont soulevé l'enthousiasme de ses élèves, professeurs de musique et de danse, qui se sont arrachés ses morceaux pédagogiques.

Voici enfin regroupés et enregistrés, à la demande de nombreux enseignants, ces fameux morceaux, améliorés encore et encore, ainsi que des nouveaux, dans une série de recueils intitulée La musique, c'est toi.

A Manual of Techniques and Possibilities for the Adventurous Improvising Musician. Par KANE DAVID. Sure - everybody has an opinion on how to play ?outside?. But until now, no one has made an in-depth exploration of the commonalities and differences in how the greatest jazz players on the planet have incorporated their inspiring, harmony defying techniques. With Playing Outside the Chord, David Kane invokes a thoughtfully curated selection of transcribed phrases that take the reader beyond the simple mechanics of what is being played and offer revelatory insights into what the players are (or might be) thinking when they play it. It?s a daunting, seemingly impossible objective; yet here it is, beautifully examined, notated, and explained in an accessible way that every musician can understand. 'This book is a treasure trove, full of important information on chromaticism and its usage. From Bach to Schoenberg, Dave covers a lot of ground and the book is very well organized. He specifically addresses the melodic aspect of improvisation, including lines and phrases, rather than the usual emphasis on harmony. What's special is that he explores the ?feeling? and overall effect of the lines on the listener. This book is all you need as a working guide towards understanding the implications of 20th century jazz and classical music.? -David Liebman LEVEL-UP!!! If you?re feeling uninspired, stuck, or limited by your current play, this is the perfect book to help you break those chains, stimulate your creativity, and take your playing and composing in compelling new directions. Enthusiastically endorsed by modern jazz luminaries such as David Liebman and Richie Beirach, Playing Outside the Chord is devoted to melodic phrasing that transcends conventional chord/scale relationships. This exciting technique incorporating the theory and practice of horizontal playing and extended tonality pioneered by jazz titans such as Michael Brecker, Cory Henry, John Scofield, Brad Meldhau, and Jacob Collier is a vital component of the modern jazz performance and improvisation toolbox. Featuring over 200 musical examples gleaned from classic solos, plus 15 extensive transcriptions of legendary performances, this book is skillfully designed to clue you in on the theoretical basis of ?outside? play as practiced by these trail-blazing musicians. It systematically describes each type of technique used, including timing and source considerations, and by doing so unlocks a wealth of modern ideas that offer rich possibilities for the creative improviser. Kane?s insightful treatise on outside playing represents an important expansion of the ideas available to the dedicated student of improvisation. / Date parution : 2022-04-01/ Etude / Tout Instrument
