Many students lead an independent musical life apart from their normal piano lessons; they play jazz or pop music and make some attempts at improvisation without it being possible for the teacher to intervene and to supervise matters of technique, fingering , phrasing etc. The purpose of this volume is to create an additional link between teacher and pupil by making avaliable some small exercises in current jazz and blues styles. An additional stimulus should thus be given to the pupil who has a liking for musical forms of this kind, but not at the expense of the teacher's supervision of the necessary technicalside of piano playing. A hort holiday from Classical sonatinas and studies should help him to get over a time of boredom, so that he will eventually return to tratitional material with even greater enthusiasm. And in several pieces there is an opportunity to improvise above the harmonic pattern in the left hand. Blues-Rock Number one * Funny Scales * Mixolydian Etude * Alberti-Blues * Triads * Blue Waltz * Zirkus-Rag * 5/4 Boogie * Daddy's Bop Rhythm * Sleep Well Blues.

Eduard Putz is concerned with crossing the boundaries between so-called 'serious' and light music. His 'Blues Fantasy for 6 cellos' is eminently suitable for this purpose, being expressive as well as passionate and virtuosic. It is a genuine synthesis of Jazz and contemporary styles not shallow wannabe-trendy * rather 'made-to-measure' for cello ensemble.

This is a unique jazz ensemble resource that includes music for rehearsal and performance that can be used to enable your band to sound more mature, become better sight-readers, and help students develop as confident improvisers. The book is divided into 3 sections that become progressively more challenging, both for the wind player and the rhythm section players. The rhythm section parts are completely written out, but also include chord changes to help students make the connection between fully notated parts and chords and slashes. One of the fundamental abilities that all great Jazz groups share is that they can play a swinging unison line so together that it sounds like one voice waving through time. The purpose of this book is to help beginning and intermediate ensembles develop this skill and zero in on the most basic form of Jazzâthe BLUES.

This method is designed for both the bassists and drummers and its purpose is to help them play together in almost all major musical styles: Rock, Blues, Funk, Rhythm and Blues, Disco/Dance, Reggae, Latin music, etc... The many grooves presented here, even if they can be practised alone, are intended to be played in a band, or at least by a bass/drum duo, either on stage or in a studio or simply among friends. Each example displays the bass line along with its tab and the drum score just below allowing to situate each instrument in relation to the other. In this way, the grooves can easily be read and analysed from both perspectives. For each style, you will begin practisingone bar, then two bar patterns... before tackling longer and more complex grooves. To put this into application, all you will have to do is use your own chord changes or those you like, as well as play the patterns you find interesting over these chords. On the CD, the bass examples are played on the left channel and the drums examples on the right channel. With a centred sound balance you will be able to hear both instruments!
