Volume 1 "How To Play Jazz" Piano (book & 2 CD)

Publisher: Jamey Aebersold
by Jamey Aebersold, adapted by Luke Gillespie

A new version of Jamey's world famous "Volume 1 - How To Play Jazz And Improvise" completely revised and tailored for you by jazz pianist Luke Gillespie.
Essential jazz fundamentals such as scale/chord relationships, note choices, etc. written to speak specifically to pianists. The musical examples have been rewritten and include suggested left-hand and two had voicing examples to be played with the CD tracks.

The play-a-long/demonstration CD includes special stereo separation, allowing the piano to be eliminated so that the student can play along with bassist Rufus Reid and drummer Jonathan Higgins. A second CD includes the same play-a-long tracks as the first CD, but at slower practice tempos. A complete package for the beginning jazz pianist! 106 pages, spiral bound for easy opening.
