Une méthode claire, progressive, dynamique qui vous propose de découvrir les fondements de l?harmonie tonale dans le jazz.

L?ouvrage s?adresse à tous les instrumentistes qui désirent comprendre la façon dont sont construits les standards et pour qui les termes intervalle, cadence, tonalité, dominante secondaire ou substitution sont encore imprécis. Il se présente comme une véritable méthode progressive où chaque notion abordée est accompagnée d?exemples et d?une série d?exercices (avec leurs corrigés).

Cette approche d?un genre nouveau doit permettre au lecteur de :
? s?épanouir sans informations inutiles ;
? comprendre et s?approprier un thème par le biais de son analyse (cadences, emprunts, modulations, substitutions?) afin d?en changer pertinemment la structure et, éventuellement, d?en proposer une version personnelle ;
? se préparer à l?étude de notions plus complexes (que l?on trouvera dans le Tome 2).

Les accords et leurs enchaînements ont une histoire, ils obéissent à certaines « règles » que tout musicien de jazz (autodidacte ou instrumentiste chevronné) se doit de connaître afin de libérer sa créativité.

Ce sont ces principes que nous vous proposons de découvrir avec En Harmonie. / Livre / Agrafé /

Par WYATT KEITH / SCHROEDER. Un outil complet pour les musiciens. Ce livre a évolué au cours des années pendant lesquelles nous avons écrit, enseigné et corrigé le cours que nous dispensons au Musician Institute. Cet établissement est une école de musique qui met l'accent sur la scène plutôt que sur les cours magis C'est pourquoi, on étudie l'harmonie et la théorie de façon pratique plutôt que théorique ou intellectuelle. Le but de ce cours est simplement de permettre à tous ceux qui jouent d'un instrument de lire et comprendre une partition. Le but est de con suffisamment le langage pour ne pas avoir à trop s'arrêter sur ce qu'il faut faire : être en mesure de l'utiliser comme un instrument qui peut vous aider à penser plus musicalement et donc à jouer mieux et plus rapidement. C'est pourquoi les conceptcés dans ce livre ne remplacent ni une bonne maîtrise de l'instrument, ni l'expérience, une bonne oreille ou le style mais il vous fourni une structure qui uni tous ces éléments, faisant de vous un musicien accompli.

At just 34 years of age Théodore Dubois was installed as a professor of harmony at the Paris Conservatoire. Whilst much of his compositional works have disappeared from primary classical repertoire his teaching has had a lasting influence. Having taught successful composers including Paul Dukas it is clear that Dubois'' Treaty of Harmony is well-informed. This music theory study guide covers a considerable range of theoretical aspects from the varying musical clefs to the use of pedal notes as well many other harmonic devices with expertise. During the preface Dubois explains the need for hisbook stating that it fills the gaps in harmonic theory exercises which preceding guides had missed. With no harmonic elements left out this Théodore Dubois theory guide is necessary to accompany all music studies.
