Jazz Lessons with Giants

Doron Orenstein
0/5 ( ratings)
The Jazz Lessons with Giants e-book features Bob Mintzer, David Liebman, and Bob Sheppard sharing hours of tips, techniques, exercises, and jazz wisdom that will keep you busy for years to come.

This book is indeed absolutely jam-stuffed with mountains of juicy tidbits that will turn you into the player who gets the other musicians saying, “Hey man, what was that thing you played in the last chorus?” You’ll learn the essential qualities necessary to approach this music the way the pros do it.

Some of the topics covered:

MASTERING MELODIC DEVELOPMENT
* How to create an endless stream of melodic material from just a few notes
* How to quadruple your musical vocabulary with the tasteful use of patterns based on intervals
* How to get that hip and modern “post-Coltrane” sound
* How the relationship between written melodies to improvised solos works
* How to create melodies that successfully outline modern and complex chord progressions

EXPANDING YOUR SENSE OF HARMONY
* How chord changes to standard tunes are constructed
* How to blow people’s minds by playing alternate chord changes over a tune
* Demystifying the science of reharmonizing tunes
* Finding hip and fascinating new sounds by working with modes

OPENING YOUR EARS UP TO NEW SOUNDS
* No more wondering if you’re hearing enough of what you’re playing before you play it
* Using an unbelievably powerful transcription method, you’ll get to live inside the mind of any jazz genius.
* How to use fun and simple techniques to prepare you for getting through tunes that you don’t actually know
* How to listen to jazz analytically so that you can soak up and digest every last ounce of jazz greatness
* How to gain the super power of being able to hear individual notes within a cluster of notes

EXPRESSIVE RHYTHM, ARTICULATION AND PHRASING
* How to keep rock-solid time
* How to work with your relationship to the beat and create your own personal time feel
* What the ingredients to world-class jazz phrasing are
* The critical steps that you need to take in order to come up with your own playing style

BURNIN’ DOWN THE BAND STAND IN SMALL GROUP
* How to bring your audience to life by interacting with your band mates in an energy-shifting manner
* How to accelerate the process of learning to play together tightly and gracefully, even without rehearsal
* You’ll discover what it means to make spontaneous musical magic happen as often possible.
