This updated second edition has been streamlined and modernized for the contemporary classroom. Whether you are a veteran jazz educator or a band director with minimal jazz experience, this resource offers field-tested strategies to help you offer the best possible training for your students. In addition to the many printed music examples in the book, there are over 150 MP3 audio recordings available for download that complement the text. "Doug Beach and I co- authored the first edition of Jazz Educators Handbook to assist band directors with disparate levels of jazz experience. Since that time, educators around the world have used our suggestions to help their students learn and enjoy jazz music. But since the original publishing date of 2002, teaching strategies have been continually transformed by daily advances in music technology. What hasn't changed is the human dynamic; jazz educators are still driven by passion for the music and the insatiable desire to teach. We hope the second edition's updated information, combined with your experience and instincts, will help jazz music to evolve for years to come." –Jeff Jarvis, co-author 2471446 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .55.00
