Jim McNeely - The Art of Comping Piano
Language : English • German • French

"The Art of Comping" is a "hands-on" (first-of-its-kind) workbook which enables you to practice an often-neglected aspect of jazz piano playing.
The text points out important aspects of the comping and offers a number of specific suggestions and chord voicings for each tune.
You hear the author comp and you get a chance to comp with the same rhythm section, without the piano track.

Rhythm section: Jim McNeely - piano; Rufus Reid - bass; Victor Lewis - drums
