The Jazz Sessions Series
is a tremendous collection of Jazz standards, classics and original
material by contemporary composers Alexander L'Estrange and Tom Pilling.
Each book is dedicated to a particular instrument but they are all able
to work in conjunction with each other in ensembles and Jazz bands,
providing an exciting and enjoyable repertoire. A professionally
recorded CD accompanies each book and contains play-along backing
tracks as a substitute for real life musicians. This allows for
practice at an individual's preferred pace and enables students to get
an authentic feel of the style.
One of the main purposes of Jazz Sessions is help encourage and develop
improvisational skills with a full written solo on one page and an
alternative, extended version for improvising.
- A great
introduction to experimentation and ideal preparation for ABRSM exams.
- Reflects a
variety of Jazz styles including swing, Latin, gospel and blues.
- Backing
Tracks give opportunity for confident and atmospheric performance.
- Carefully
tailored for intermediate musicians.
