Welcome to the exciting world of jazz! This book will help you get started by introducing the important elements of jazz style and improvisation. You'll also learn basic jazz theory and some highlights of the history of jazz. The exercises and compositions in this book can be played by a full jazz ensemble, or individually with the two CDs included with the book (each book includes the CDs except for the conductor's score). Listening to good jazz players is an extremely important way to learn, and playing along with the CD is an excellent way to hear how jazz is played. The full band arrangements in this book include "sample" improvised solos for study and reference. "Essential Elements For Jazz Ensemble: A Comprehensive Method For Jazz Style And Improvisation" is available for: flute, clarinet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, trumpet, trombone, French horn, tuba, guitar, bass, drums, C treble/vibes, piano, and conductor.
