FIDDLE TUNES ON JAZZ CHANGES

Softcover Book with Online Audio Access

Series: Berklee Guide
Publisher: Berklee Press
Format: Softcover with Online Audio Access
Author: Matt Glaser

Develop jazz solos using melodic fragments from traditional fiddle tunes. These etudes show how melodic cells can be used to create extended improvisations. In each example, fragments of a traditional fiddle tune (Turkey in the Straw, Arkansas Traveler) are developed over jazz standard chord progressions. Each etude is preceded by a short introduction, discussing the development techniques at work. The online audio tracks feature swinging interpretations of each etude, and provide play-along tracks so that you can practice each concept.
