The Jazz Sessions Series is a tremendous collection of Jazz standards classics and original material by contemporary composers Alexander L’Estrange and Tom Pilling. Each book is dedicated to a particular instrument but they are all able to work in conjunction with each other in ensembles and Jazz bands providing an exciting and enjoyable repertoire. A professionally recorded CD accompanies each book and contains play-along backing tracks as a substitute for real life musicians. This allows for practice at an individual’s preferred pace and enables students to get an authentic feel of the style. One of the main purposes of Jazz Sessions is help encourage anddevelop improvisational skills with a full written solo on one page and an alternative extended version for improvising. A great introduction to experimentation and ideal preparation for ABRSM exams. Reflects a variety of Jazz styles including swing Latin gospel and blues. Backing Tracks give opportunity for confident and atmospheric performance. Carefully tailored for intermediate musicians.

44 Pieces By Rachmaninoff Scriabin Mussorgsky and Others-Nineteenth-century Europe's immersion into Romanticism fostered a 'back to nature' movement in which artists turned toward folk music for inspiration. This collection spotlights the works of important Russian composers who drew upon and popularized folk melodies of their native country. Forty-four stirring pieces reflect the influence of Russia's peasant songs as well as the tonality and rhythms of music from the Russo-Greek Orthodox Church and Tartar culture. Suitable for intermediate-level pianists of all ages this collection features contributions from Michael Glinka hailed a century ago as 'the father of Russian musical art.' Additional contributors includeAlexander Borodin Modest Mussorgsky Nikolas Rimsky-Korsakov Alexander Scriabin Sergei Rachmaninoff and other composers. Reprint of the Carl Fischer New York 1915 edition.
