Description
Jazz Theory & Workbook by Lilian Dericq and Etienne Guereau is an in-depth guide for instrumentalists looking to understand the construction of jazz standards. It's also a valuable resource for arrangers and composers seeking new writing tools. This structured method presents each concept clearly, using musical examples to illustrate key concepts before consolidating them with written exercises. The book progresses from a comprehensive presentation of intervals to an in-depth review of synthetic modes, covering both vertical and horizontal approaches to jazz harmony. By exploring the interplay between chord progressions and linear mechanisms, this workbook aims to provide a nuanced understanding of jazz music's unique sound and expressiveness.
