25 jazz etudes is a book aimed at intermediate jazz students wanting something authentic to play over well known jazz standards.

It has long been recognised that to develop jazz vocabulary we should copy the masters of the music but what if our favourite player is simply too advanced for where we currently are in our musical development?

The 25 jazz etudes have been created with limited tricky passages, no high sustained playing but still uses great, authentic vocabulary.

Jazzy scales & patterns in all 12 keys - jazz etudes

Have you ever found yourself struggling to play in certain 'tricky keys'? Why are these keys so tricky? Simply because we've not played them as much as the easy ones! That's it, no other reason. By practicing enough in ALL keys we can really take our playing and improvising to the next level, always executing what ever ideas we hear or come up with, perfectly.

Jazzy scales & patterns in all 12 keys is aimed at intermediate players to develop their jazz technique in all 12 keys. The scales and patterns are written in such a way, that you could use parts of them within your solos. By developing your playing in the key centers and in a jazzy way, we can develop our technique along with our listening skills. The book culminates with a section on playing II-V-I's in the key centre. An etude of the famous standard 'Cherokee' has also been added as a bonus to show how you can use many of the exercises in the book in real life playing situations!
