The Phrasing for Trumpet book includes a play-along CD featuring trumpeter Victor Garcia playing each song with a world-class rhythm section, while Phrasing for Trombone features trombonist Russ Phillips. The CD's also include tracks featuring Greg Fishman demonstrating each song on alto saxophone, giving trumpet and trombone players the option of playing along with trumpet or alto saxophone. In addition, there are play-along tracks featuring just the rhythm section. These tracks are great for practicing the songs, chords, scales, voice-leading lines and soloing over the chords progressions. These books will provide valuable insights into a melodic approach to jazz improvisation. This book is recommended for players of all levels who wish to improve their tone, articulation, phrasing, and understanding of thematic development.
