First Place for Jazz
Introductory Method for Jazz Ensemble
Dean Sorenson.
This comprehensive introductory jazz method can be essential for
implementing a jazz ensemble curriculum. The book is divided into
three sections by key: Concert B-flat, F, and E-flat. 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 12 grade 1 and 2 jazz ensemble charts
and lead sheets 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.

Jazz Ensemble Method

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
nontheoretical, 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, reproducible
listening worksheets and rhythm studies, a jazz ensemble director's
guide, a 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!
