Ready to play - The roots of jazz

Description

George Speckert has once again created a collection of easy pieces which are fun to perform and sound attractive. The duets are comfortable to play, have an authentic jazz feel to them and are full of nuances; musicians and teachers will enjoy them as much as the listener. Marked rhythms and distinctive melodies give the pieces that special something.

The author George Speckert is renowned for his easy yet sonorous arrangements for mixed string ensembles. He is a composer, author, and teacher for multi-media production and e-learning.
