Each volume includes a stand alone Jazz Soloist program with over 3 hours of jazz soloing. The Jazz Soloist comes in 3 complete volumes encompassing the full range of improvisational styles. Volumes 1 and 2 of cover mainstream jazz swing, bebop, and modern jazz. Volume 3 moves into other musical genres featuring Latin, blues, and jazz waltz styles. The Jazz Soloist helps you learn to solo like a professional jazz musician.
Musicians studying improvisation typically learn by copying other soloists performances.
There are several key ingredients for this process to work correctly, and they are all offered together in this program. You can hear the solos as they should be played, and play along with them, or mute the solo part and play along with the bass, piano and drums. The printout includes notation with chord symbols. Great jazz quartet performances including piano comping. An added bonus is in the 'piano comping' within the MIDI files that come with the program.
