Become an all-round exceptional pianist. The Jazz Piano Player: Autumn Leaves is a 15-piece book full of classic jazz numbers like “Summertime” “My Funny Valentine: Autumn Leaves” and “I Get A Kick Out Of You”. You get even more than these excellent pieces though. Cultivate your solo skills with this collection designed to help you into jazz playing and improvisation. Get involved with jazz jam sessions. The Autumn Leaves collection is made up of two formats. One is the complete arrangement but the other is a stripped-back version designed for you to improvise around with only the melody lyrics and basic chord structure. With both included in their standard keys you are all set to play them as part of a jazz group. Discover the freedom of jazz playing.
Master the Jazz Standards Get to grips with the Golden Age of song writing. John Kember has arranged this collection by the likes of Gershwin and Arlen with the idea of introducing piano students to what are respected as the jazz standards. Learning to improvise around such classics gives you a solid jazz basis to pull out and play with others. With the basic chord structure youll understand the progressions and gain a more general understanding of playing in this style.
