The Alfred Jazz Play-Along series goes beyond the other play-alongs! Some of the best jazz tunes written are arranged in an educational and fun setting, with sophisticated recordings by some of the top musicians in the country. Each volume has parts for C, Bb, Eb, and bass clef instruments and includes a sample jazz solo that is written out for you to listen to, play, and practice. The included CD has a demo and play-along track for each tune. The demo track, featuring a pro rhythm section and horn player, is a learning tool for the melodic concept, overall jazz style, and the sample jazz solo. The play-along track allows a soloist or group to learn and perform with the rhythm section. Specific improvisation tips and suggestions are included. A jazz solo is written out for each song--an invaluable asset that makes learning how to improvise easier. There is also a matching book for rhythm section featuring piano, bass, and drum parts!

This book teams up Grammy winner Lennie Niehaus and jazz trombonist Rick Simerly for a set of exciting jazz solos written for the intermediate trombone player. These 14 jazz solos were specially written for Jamey Aebersold's popular Volume 54 Maiden Voyage Play-A-Long and since they are by Lennie, you know they swing and are fun to play! To make it even better, we've included a Play-A-Long/demonstration CD with jazz trombone master Rick Simerly playing the solos with the Volume 54 accompaniment tracks to demonstrate proper jazz feel and interpretation. Lennie writes, Rick plays. You listen, play and learn. Enjoy!
