For more than a century, violinists have played jazz, swing, blues and similar improvisational styles. With its rich tone, considerable range, and bowed rhythms and phrasing, the violin offers a unique opportunity for a creative and personal statement as a musician. This book presents a broad sampling of the styles of major jazz violinists, from blues to bebop, from jug band to jazzgrass, from big-band swing to Texas swing. Tunes represent the styles of Stéphane Grappelli, Joe Venuti, Stuff Smith, Eddie South, Mark O'Connor, Benny Thomasson, Jean-Luc Ponty, and Darol Anger. Helpful jazz theory sections with exercises alternate with tunes that show how the theory works in practice. This book has two objectives: first, to present a broad, roughly chronological sampling of major jazz violinists and the styles associated with them, and secondly, to introduce the basics of jazz theory as applied to the violin. Whether consciously or intuitively, through critical listening or by practicing jazz patterns and exercises, the more knowledge of jazz you acquire, the better you will be able to think about the content of your playing without being bound by technical and theoretical aspects. This anthology was written to help provide that foundation. Interspersed with pragmatic jazz theory lessons, you'll find 28 original tunes in the style of various jazz violin luminaries. The book ends with an extensive discography of recommended jazz recordings with a violin focus. Mandolinists as well as other instrumentalists will find a wealth of useful information in this outstanding collection. Delightful broadcast-quality recordings of the repertoire are available online. Includes access to online audio. Written for intermediate to advanced violinists.

Contained within Etudes For Electric Guitar are twelve exciting pieces for solo Electric Guitar designed to improve your skill and technique, specially devised by renowned composer Kris Lennox.

Designed for intermediate guitarists, these twelve, completely original studies will help improve your technique and range by really focusing on certain aspects of your playing, such as fingering, rhythm and picking. These are challenging pieces, but if incorporated into a practice routine, they'll be hugely beneficial, as well as simply enjoyable to play. Author and composer Kris Lennox feels strongly about the etudes included in this collection of solo Guitar sheet music, and this is evident in his extensive written introductions, justifications and guidance notes for each study. He has noticed that the majority of electric guitarists can play the rhythm or lead parts of songs, while the electric Guitar is rarely thought of as its own solo instrument. With Etudes For Electric Guitar, Lennox hopes to change this, composing pieces that sound great, while also being technically challenging and entirely worthy of your time. You won't need any special equipment, just a standard electric Guitar and a willingness to learn and improve. The extensive notes give you essential tips on working through each study, making sure they are as beneficial as possible.Featuring twelve etudes, all in different keys, the notes are included in standard notation and tablature, so you don't have to know how to read music. There are also some fingering suggestions, so for particular stretches or complex passages, you can get help on where to put your fingers! The accompanying download card also gives you instant online access to studio-quality demonstrations, recorded by Kris Lennox himself, so you can hear exactly how each etude should sound. If you're feeling brave enough, you could attempt to play along with Lennox's recording, but be sure to start slowly! This collection of Etudes For Electric Guitar is a fantastic opportunity to play a set of twelve expertly-composed studies for solo Electric Guitar, the likes of which are difficult to find among today's PVG or tab songbooks. To improve your playing, or just to expand your repertoire beyond simple songs, Etudes For Electric Guitar by Kris Lennox is a creative collection of pieces that are both enjoyable to play and invaluable to your technique. / Guitare
