Cutting the changes: Improvising via key centers (C bass)

Description

Cutting the Changes cuts the chord symbols out of soloing! Improvise over standard tunes using ONLY MAJOR SCALES!

There's no longer any reason to be afraid of improvising over the music of Gershwin, Porter, Lerner and Loewe, Mercer, Mandel, and others! For beginning to advanced improvisors, this method is ideal for classroom, private, or self-instruction, as well as music education and jazz pedagogy classes.
