About the Book
JP for B contains a
wealth of information that will help anyone learn techniques of playing and
studying jazz piano. The book is broken into 7 chapters which
are:
*Notation and Basic Chord Concepts
*Scales &
Relationships to Chords
*Fingers on the Keys and the Blues
*ii-V-I and
More Notation
*Extensions and Alterations
*Rhythmic Concepts
*Final
Thoughts
If some of that sounds like
Greek to you, don't worry! JPforB contains lots and lots of easy-to-understand explanations and
examples!
JPforB contains many useful
tables and appendices which will be very useful as reference
tools.
JPforB provides fun practice
sheets to help you easily grasp all the concepts in the book, such
as notes, chords, key signatures, etc.
MP3 Files
are also provided for you to practice your new
skills!
As I said in the "about the
author" section, I intentionally created the book for multiple levels of
music ability and piano proficiency so that any
non-musical student could easily teach him or herself, while the
advanced piano students would also be very challenged by the concepts
in my book.
Warmly,
Daniel Fritz
