First Place for Jazz
Introductory Method for Jazz Ensemble
Dean Sorenson.
First Place for Jazz is a comprehensive introductory jazz method and can be essential
for implementing a jazz ensemble curriculum. The book is divided into three sections
by key: Concert Bb, F, and Eb. Within each section the major, Mixolydian, Dorian, and
blues scales and correlated chords of that key are introduced through Jazz Starters,
Rhythm Section Spotlights, and Rhythm Sectionals. These enrichments prepare
students to play each of the twelve grade 1 and 2 Jazz Ensemble Charts and Lead
Sheets that are included in the book. Suitable for group or individual instruction, this
unique organization, combined with a host of innovative features including an online
Interactive Practice Studio and availability in SmartMusic, will provide bands with the
tools they need. Additional features include: Aurally Presented Scales (a foundation
for more advanced improvisation study); Progressive Pitch Sets (students learn to
walk before they run); One at a Time Chord Introduction (allows students to gradually
master their harmonic understanding); Rhythm Figures (taken from the included jazz
ensemble charts, helping students to develop an understanding of phrasing and
articulation); Improvisation Practice (giving students the opportunity to apply what
they have learned in the exercises); Let's Check Progress (motivates students by
allowing them to chart their growth); Spotlights (develops the individual skills required
of rhythm section players); Instrument-specific Recordings (provided online in the First
Place for Jazz Interactive Practice Studio for Jazz Starters exercises, charts and Lead
Sheets); Rhythm Sectionals (builds the rhythm section groove for the included Jazz
Ensemble Charts step-by-step) and much, much more! Essential for implementing a
comprehensive jazz curriculum, this method is built from the ground up!
