Description
Exploring Jazz Piano by Tim Richards is an in-depth guide for intermediate pianists. This volume introduces essential chord types used in jazz, including major and minor triads, seventh and ninth chords, and more.
The book covers various topics such as chord/scale relationships, modes, broken chord and scale patterns, pentatonic and blues scales, walking bass lines, Latin rhythms, and improvisation techniques. Alongside these concepts are 28 pieces by the author, including arrangements of well-known jazz standards, accompanied by transcribed solos from Thelonious Monk and Horace Silver.
Audio files for download feature performances of all pieces played by Tim Richards alone or with his trio, as well as play-along tracks that allow you to practice along. The book also includes numerous assignments and examples of improvisation, making it a valuable resource for those looking to improve their jazz piano skills.
