Listening to and familiarizing myself with the recordings of several jazz musicians from the New York scene of the early 2000s, I noticed that the contrapuntal aspect manifests itself more and more frequently at the level of composition and improvisation. Although we find the manifestation of this concept at different times, notably in the playing of Fred Hersch or guitarist Ted Greene, its spontaneous, systematic and parameterized use seems to become characteristic of contemporary jazz, particularly in the playing of pianist Brad Mehldau. and guitarists such as Gilad Hekselman or Pasquale Grasso. I developed a deep interest in this concept and my efforts to assimilate it materialized in a doctoral thesis in interpretation, in an album, then in this method. We can hear the application of this concept throughout the album, released in the fall of 2021 on the Arte Boreal label: Sens unique. This collection exposes the methodological approach developed in order to conceive, analyze, and ultimately appropriate the contrapuntal aspect of two voices. The various educational tools and strategies presented in this method will allow the guitarist to quickly identify and then assimilate the many aspects relating to this subject.

This book is an attempt to capture the highlights of twenty-eight years of composing. Each of these 32 compositions is an expression, and as such -- an exposure, of a genuine part of myself which I present within the framework of jazz; my beloved art form. When I listen to this music I hear shades of my early classical and rock influences. It also brings to my mind my birth place, a small neighborhood outside of Haifa, Israel. I really hope that you will listen to these pieces come alive on my CDs All The Way To Sendai.

Many polyrhythms and polymeters simultaneous combinations of more than one rhythmic pattern exist in todays music, with some being so common they could be referred to as rhythm licks. This book presents a unique and comprehensive approach to polymetric applications of various rhythms over common chord progressions and song forms in 3/4 and 4/4, written primarily for instruments with chordal capabilities. Non-chordal instrumentalists interested in rhythmic development and contemporary phrasing may also benefit. Polymetric rhythms will force a variety of harmonic anticipations and delays which can have a profound and beneficial effect on harmonic, melodic, and improvisational phrasing. In addition, the focused attention and expanded awareness needed to master these exercises can also help in your sensitivity and response to the surrounding environment and your interactions with other musicians and audience.

In contrast to Llobet´s output of just 14 original works, his transcriptions for guitar number 118, a considerable quantity of an extremely high standard. These were a huge influence on the two generations of guitarists following Llobet some of whom mercilessly and anonymously plundered and disfigured them for their own use! Being also an accomplished pianist, Llobet was in a better position than any other of his contemporaries to transcribe the German Romantic Masters, as well as the piano music of Albéniz and Granados, among others. Transcribed by Llobet mainly during his formative years these transcriptions are masterpieces which transcend their original setting. In his early career, Segovia played many transcriptions of Llobet, eg Bach's Prélude in Dm, Sarabande, Bourrée, Gavotte. This volume is highly recommended.
