Intermediate Jazz Guitar
by Jody Fisher
The National Guitar Workshop's (USA) Jazz Guitar Method
This book is great for guitarists who have learned the basics of jazz harmony and improvisation. Topics include the ii-V-I progression, creating solo lines, altered chord formulas and "comping" in different jazz feels such as Latin, swing, ballad and even funk. Continuing the format of Beginning Jazz Guitar, every new concept is accompanied by etudes and songs for practice, and every chapter is clearly divided into harmony and improvisations lessons. Packed with literally hundreds of chord voicings and improv ideas, this book is a must for any serious student of jazz guitar.
All four books in this series are loaded with:
-
Examples in standard music notation and TAB
-
Full-length songs to practice
-
Large, easy-to-read scale and chord diagrams
Teachers and students alike will love the clearly organized lesson format.
