More Adventures in Jazz is perfect for intermediate to advanced students looking to improve their jazz skills. MAJ is challenging to read and contains 12-bar blues bass lines and complex chord structures.
Book Four continues to introduces new styles of music while teaching students how to create their own accompaniment patterns for use in countless other songs.
Book Three introduces new styles of music. There is a Klezmer two-beat feel, a pop ballad and a 12-bar blues to boot! The seemless integration of rhythm, ear training and improvisation makes learning how to improvise a joy rather than a chore.
Book Two continues where Book One left off, but now shows students how to accompany their own improvisation. The two-handed rhythms and ear-training exercises will improve your sight-reading abilities too!
Book One is perfect for the beginning student. The key to this book and the JazzKids program as a whole is the integration of important musical concepts with really fun pieces. Book One is divided into six units with four sub-units: Rhythm, Ear Training, The Song, Improvisation.
