The Jazz Piano Player: Autumn Leaves

Description

The Jazz Piano Player: Autumn Leaves presents 15 jazz classics in an ingenious new format for jazz pianists. Each piece is presented in two formats: the first version includes melody, lyrics and basic chord structure, ideal for improvisation. The second version is a superb arrangement for piano solo, for intermediate level pianists.

All the songs are helpfully included in their standard keys, so pianists will be able to play with other jazz musicians. The free CD included features full performances of all the arrangements by pianist John Kember. An essential new resource for all jazz pianists - a great way in for players wanting to make a transition into jazz, as well as for pianists wanting to develop their own style.
