Nuova edizione basata sul manoscritto autografo-This edition has to be considered an homage to Manuel María Ponce for the 70th anniversary of his death. The purpose is to correct through the comparison with the autographs the many alterations of the text that are in the first (and unique) Peer edition of 1953. Since this is an educational collection a great importance is given to fingerings. However it is meant in a colourful way often non predictable with various passages or single notes in high positions with an expressive purpose aiming at increasing the value of these Preludes written in a simple language clear but full of slight nuances. Obviously these fingerings are only suggestions and they can be adapted to the many technical and educational needs. In this edition we have preferred to use the original title 6 Preludios Fáciles and not the one used in the 1953 edition 6 Preludios Cortos.This edition has to be considered an homage to Manuel María Ponce for the 70th anniversary of his death.

Par CHRISTIANSEN COREY. Miles Davis was one of the most innovative musicians of the 20th century. This book will shed some insight into the music and soloing devices he used during his earlier periods. First, to help the student better understand Miles' early bebop style of improvising, the authors discuss the use of guide tones, bebop scales, three to flat nine, targeting, and other techniques commonly used in the bebop language. Then the text presents numerous one-, two-, and three-measure jazz lines in Miles' style grouped by the harmony over which they can be used. The accompanying play-along CD provides the rhythm parts for each section, including a track for each section that modulates through the cycle of fourths, helping you master the phrases in all keys. By combining various lines, musicians will be able to mix and match numerous combinations of these lines to play over ii-V-I progressions, turnarounds, and other harmonic situations. Incorporate these essential jazz lines into your vocabulary and you will be able to create your own lines in the style of Miles Davis. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Jazz - Improvisation / Recueil / Guitare
