Perfect for the student of Jazz. --Michael Brecker ?I encourage the jazz guitar students at the University of North Texas to emulate tenor saxophonists. Greg Fishman's book, Jazz Guitar Etudes, contains idiomatic bebop lines and will be a great tool for any guitar teacher with aspiring jazz guitarists. Thanks, Greg!? Fred Hamilton, professor of jazz guitar, University of North Texas ?These are great solos and etudes! I'm always telling my guitar students to learn lines and phrasing from horn players, and Greg Fishman's book is perfect for this approach. The book is nicely done and very well laid out.? Corey Christiansen Professor of Guitar, Utah State University, Visiting Professor, Indiana University This book is very well put together and very thorough. It gives guitar students the information necessary to obtain a vocabulary based on the bebop tradition, yet ultimately encourages them to improvise on these structures, creating their own lines and ideas. I commend you on meeting this challenge head-on, and for effectively clarifying these concepts in your liner notes. --Steve Cardenas Professor of Guitar, The New School, New York City, member of the Paul Motian Band and Charlie Haden Liberation Music Orchesra.

10 Duette im Stil von Romantik, Blues, Bossa Nova, samba, Pop und Folklore. Par JUERGEN KUMLEHN. This book is for all guitarists who are looking for something new to play and who don't want to limit themselves exclusively to the more traditional type of duet music that's available. Stylistically, the pieces range from romantic, blues and bossa nova to samba, pop and folklore. The included CD contains every piece in two different versions as well as a preparatory exercise. First, there's a complete version for listening with an expanded and properly mixed arrangement. In this version, supporting instruments such as percussion, electric piano, strings, or acoustic bass are added in an appropriate manner for the style and mixed in softly without distracting the focus from the two guitars. After every listening version, a 'picking pattern' follows: the rhythm guitar performs and stays with this picking pattern throughout the entire piece and it forms the common thread that represents the actual core of each composition. This pattern is also presented on the CD in a slow version of a representative section of each song which you can analyze and play along with. Finally, you'll find the play-along version. This version has been reduced to only the two guitars, with one guitar on the left channel and the other on the right. Written in notation and tablature. Text in English and German. / Niveau : Débutant à Intermédiaire / All Styles - Duets / Tablatures / Guitare Tablatures
