BUILDING A JAZZ CHORD SOLO, A Guitarist's Guide to the Art of Chord Melody Playing. Fred Sokolow. CD TAB.

Series: Guitar Educational
Medium: Softcover with CD

Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate guitarist, this book/CD pack will help you to understand and learn the art of jazz chord soloing in four stages. Four jazz standards are presented, each with four arrangements at varying levels of difficulty: a beginner's arrangement, using mostly first-position chords - an intermediate arrangement, using moveable chords and featuring a more developed chord vocabulary - an advanced arrangement, including ample chord substitutions and reharmonization - an improvisational chord solo that leaves the melody behind. This teaches how to improvise a chord solo over a given set of changes. Plenty of information is presented along the way that will teach you how to build your own chord solos as well as understand and play jazz progressions. 55 pages

GUITAR: IMPROVISATION

Effective improvisation can add fun and individuality to guitar performances.

You'll learn how to: develop an expectation of sound - master the relationships between notes, modes and harmonies - improvise over jazz standards - identify pitch tendencies within chord progressions, and more. 128 pages.

Create more expressive solos

Effective improvisation can add fun and individuality to guitar solos. In Playing the Changes—Guitar, Mitch Seidman and Paul Del Nero present a unique improvisation strategy based on ear training and a linear interpretation of note relationships.

In this technique, improvised lines are derived from the harmonic construction of chord progressions. Learn how to choose appropriate notes by listening for the tendencies of pitches within modes and tetrachords—groupings of four notes in a scale. InPlaying the Changes—Guitar, you'll explore the possibilities of focused and linear improvisation, and develop your ability to create musically effective melodies with greater freedom and depth of expression.

Comprehensive, step-by-step instruction will guide you as you:

Develop an expectation of sound—an intuitive sense for which notes to choose and where your chosen notes will lead the melody.
Master the movement of notes over modes and harmonies.
Use and learn from the examples on the included CD.
Become comfortable improvising over jazz standards such as "Blue Bossa," "Tune Up," and "Long Ago and Far Away."
Create your own chord pads to use as you practice recognizing the tendencies of pitches within chord progressions.
Tablature included.
If you can read traditional notation and chord symbols, have a basic understanding of functional harmony and have a basic technical capability, you can use this book to learn how to improvise and become more expressive and creative in your music making.

BUZZ
"Very thoughtful and insightful book by Mitch Seidman and Paul Del Nero. This is geared to an intermediate to advanced level of student, but a beginner can certainly find good practice material. The tetrachord ideas are a unique way of addressing the problems of improvisation. If students apply themselves to the exercises, much progress can be made. Highly recommended!"

—Jack Wilkins, Guitarist and Educator

"Mitch Seidman and Paul Del Nero have assembled an impressive and comprehensive book of patterns, exercises, and etudes that really get inside the secrets to jazz improvisation and open up new possibilities to the guitarist at any level of their development. Complemented with a great sounding CD of many different examples, I know I. myself', will find it helpful for a long time to come. Great job, Mitch and Paul!"

—Duke Robillard, Award-Winning Blues Guitarist

"Playing the Changes is a nuts-and-bolts, hands-on method for soloing. Real concepts that will yield real results. A great piece of work!"

—Joe Beck, Jazz Guitarist

"Playing the Changes—Guitar: A Linear Approach to Improvising presents a great way to develop ear training, melodic and harmonic awareness, and the corresponding technique on the guitar. The clearly laid out and demystified program builds a sensitivity and understanding that will enrich any player's improvisational skills, transcending stylistic boundaries. A great contribution to a complete musician's education!"

—Howard Alden, Jazz Guitarist, Concord Recording Artist

Playing the Changes-Guitar

This book began as a series of core courses at Berklee College of Music, developed by
members of the Ear Training Department. In these classes, jazz improvisation students
learn to develop an intuitive, linear sense of improvisation. Some of these techniques have
evolved over centuries, and others have been developed fairly recently. As a method for
training musicians how to improvise, we have found this approach to be uniquely effective.
This book is intended for musicians who can read traditional notation and chord symbols,
have a basic understanding of functional harmony, and have a basic technical capability
on their instrument.
The essential idea is that using just a few notes effectively, in an improvisation, leads to
great musical freedom and depth of expression. By using a few carefully selected notes,
and by listening for where these notes naturally lead, your resulting improvised lines will
become more focused and linear, with natural-sounding resolutions.
In our method, note choices are based on modes and tetrachords (four-note groups,
discussed in lesson 2) that are derived from the chord progression's harmony. Our method
for using them will help you to find notes that will be musically effective, easy to
remember, and appropriate for your instrument, and it will lead you to many new ideas.
After introducing a few technical concepts in part I, the "Progressions" lessons of part II
are each based on a progression from the "jazz standards" repertoire. These patterns of
chords are at the heart of many tunes, and there are infinite ways in which they can be
varied. Individual chords can have variations, melodies can include notes that go beyond
the chords, and distinctive elements in the underlying groove can all lead to countless
possibilities. In addition, these progressions can be transposed to any key and played at
various tempos. Tunes can be created by combining several of these progressions, in
various formal structures. Mastering the ways that notes move over these progressions will
therefore help you as you learn new music.
Berklee has used this approach to train thousands of students to develop their musical
intuition. It has been refined over many years, and we have found it to be uniquely
effective and helpful.
We hope that it helps you to become more expressive and creative in your music making.
Notes about Chord Symbols
Chord symbols don't necessarily include tensions. Tensions may be included in the
notated and comping parts and solos.

About the Authors
The concepts in this book come from the curriculum developed by the creators of Berklee's Performance Ear Training courses. These concepts have been used to train thousands of musicians in improvisation.
