Alfred Releases New Guitar Method for Jazz Band

0

Alfred Music Publishing is set to release <em>Playing Guitar in Jazz Band</em>, a practical guide for students and teachers of jazz guitar, by David Sinclair. <em>Playing Guitar in Jazz Band</em> is for beginning or intermediate guitar students interested in joining a jazz band and the ideal companion for music teachers who want to better understand the role of the guitar in their ensemble.

Playing jazz guitar can be challenging, as the chord changes are often complex, yet the guitar parts should remain simple enough to avoid detracting from the overall sound of the band. This book breaks down that process by substituting difficult chord shapes with more flexible voicings that are designed to sound good on the guitar. The method also teaches a wide variety of rhythmic patterns and uses authentic chord charts that are exactly like the ones you will encounter in real-life situations. A CD demonstrating the examples in the book is included.

<em>Playing Guitar in Jazz Band</em> is now available as a book and CD set. Pick up your copy at a local music retail store, or buy it today at alfred.com.
