an excellent guide
19 Mar 2006
Format:Paperback
I found this book particularly appealing and useful as it was not the usual weighty, daunting volume as are many other books on improvisation. It is also simple to use, clearly laid out and sequential. The exercises can be easily managed by the average amateur player and they give an invaluable insight into how improvisational skills can be developed in relatively simple understandable terms. Most importantly, the authors do not assume at the outset that you are of Juilliard School standard!

Good book, but you better know theory first!
14 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
I bought the book to build and enhance my improv skills. I've been playing the trumpet for 20 years part-time professionally and figured that I could jump right into the book and start jamming. I was wrong. Despite being a musician for this long, I never had an understanding of chord structures, and I found out quickly that you must understand chords if you want to use this book. So, I had to buy a music theory book first and now this book is making more sense to me. I give it 5 stars for usefulness and quality, but 3 for assuming that you know chords first.

Good book

Format:Paperback
Very interesting book. It is worth reading, but a quite high level is recommended to really appreciate it. In any case, the accompanying CD is great; you will really feel like playing with a small jazz ensemble.
