Jazz Basics
Fundamentals of Improvisation for the Young Musician
Peter Blair.
Now there's a well-sequenced approach for your young musicians to begin
improvising! If your students have tried the Jamey Aebersold books, but found
themselves in too deep, this is the answer. Jazz Basics is designed to work with the
full ensemble and is a preliminary step to the Aebersold series. The score (not the
parts) includes two CDs full of aural exercises and performance examples. It has an
in-depth approach to the rhythm section, including comprehensive books for Guitar,
Bass, Piano and Drums. There are seven units of learning and six complete charts
that are playable with just a handful of players: 1 trumpet; 1 alto sax, 1 tenor sax,
and 1 trombone. The CD (in the score only) can double as rhythm section if needed.
Alternative instrumentation for clarinet, flute and horn is also provided.

Standard of Excellence Advanced
Jazz Ensemble Method
Dean Sorenson & Bruce Pearson.
Here is the sequel to the groundbreaking pedagogy introduced in the Standard of
Excellence Jazz Ensemble Method. This comprehensive method can be used by
students who have completed the first book, or any student with intermediate-level
instrumental skills and at least one year of jazz ensemble experience. Building upon
the skills introduced in the first book, the Advanced method focuses on improvisation
and its integration into full jazz ensemble performance. Each student book comes
with a demonstration/accompaniment CD and continues the non-theoretical, aurally-
based approach of the first book. It's perfect for advanced middle and high school
jazz ensembles or students of any age who have played in jazz ensembles but never
formally studied improvisation. The 500+ page Director's Score includes everything
in the student books, plus Director Tips, Student Enrichments, duplicable Listening
Worksheets and Rhythm Studies, a Jazz Ensemble Director's Guide, Glossary of Jazz
Terms and two CDs! It's not just a method, it's a curriculum! Your students and your
jazz ensemble as a whole will reap huge rewards with this!
