The Jazz Method for Clarinet
Beschrijving
These methods provide complete courses for players of all ages,
guiding students from their first note to 'classics', together with
compositions by contemporary writers.
Each book is accompanied by high quality rhythm section tracks for
download. Right from the start, students can enjoy authentic jazz
sounds, playing in the company of professionals.
With step-by-step instruction and a progression of specially
written pieces, the fundamental elements of good technique are
introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz. Improvisation
is encouraged from an early stage and is given direction through
the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice on
ear-training and chord patterns. With supplementary suggestions for
listening and reading, and an Appendix containing all the chord
progressions for 'live' accompaniment of the tunes, "The Jazz
Methods" are ideally suited to both students working alone and
those learning with a teacher.
