The Jazz
Theory Workbook is a
primer in jazz theory,
intended to prepare the
student for the serious
study of jazz
improvisation,
arrangement, and
composition. The focus is
on the harmonic language
of jazz, especially the
harmonic practices which
coalesced in the bebop
and post-bop periods of
the 1940s and 1950s when
bebop and standard tunes
formed the core of the
mainstream repertoire.
The harmonic language of
that period is still the
framework on which
contemporary jazz
musicians build. Included
are many musical examples
and written assignments
for practice in the
theoretical skills.
Appropriate exercises are
provided to reinforce
theoretical concepts by
immediate application to
the instrument.
