Das Jazz Theorie Buch ist wohl das umfangreichste Werk seiner Art. Es ist ähnlich aufgebaut wie der vom selben Autor bei Advance Music erschienene Bestseller Das Jazz Piano Buch und genauso praxisbezogen. Theoretische Sachverhalte werden immer anhand musikalischer Beispiele und Transkriptionen von berühmten Aufnahmen der Jazzgeschichte erklärt.

Von den theoretischen Grundlagen wie Intervalle, Akkord/Skalen-Theorie (Dur, Moll, Vermindert, Ganzton, Bebop, Pentatonik etc.) über die II-V-I Verbindung, Blues und Rhythm Changes bis hin zu Salsa und Latin Jazz werden in 24 Kapitel alle wichtigen Themen ausführlich behandelt. Daneben enthält das Buch nützliche Information über die Interpretation von Lead Sheets (Melodie mit Akkordsymbolen), eine ausführliche Repertoire-Liste mit Quellenangaben und Hinweisen auf Play-Along-Aufnahmen und eine Diskographie. Vier höchst interessante Kapitel mit mehr als 100 Seiten sind dem Thema Reharmonisation gewidmet.

Titles: Teil I Theorie: Akkorde und Skalen * Teil II Improvisation: Das Spielen über Changes * Teil III Reharmonisation * Teil IV Das Repertoire * Teil V Sonstiges.

Das Jazz Piano Buch behandelt fundamentale Techniken und fortgeschrittene Spielweisen der Zeitspanne von Bud Powell bis zur Gegenwart.

Der Aufbau dieses Buches ist etwas ungewöhnlich. Anstatt alle Voicings in einem Kapitel und den ganzen Theoriekomplex in einem anderen Kapitel zu behandeln, wechseln sich die Themen im Verlauf dieses Buches ab. Einfachere Sachverhalte schreiten zu komplexeren Techniken fort.

Musiktheoretische Fragen werden immer anhand von Transkriptionen und Stücken erläutert, die von Jazzmusikern häufig gespielt werden. Die Auswahl reicht von Standards wie Just Friends bis zu Wayne Shorters ungewöhnlicher und wunderschöner Ballade Infant Eyes.

Obwohl sich Das Jazz Piano Buch in erster Linie an Pianisten wendet, erleichtern die visuellen Vorteile, die das Piano bietet, allen anderen Instrumentalisten und Vokalisten den Zugang zur Harmonik des Jazz.

Es ist jedoch keine Lehnstuhllektüre, sondern ein Buch, das zum Üben und Erforschen am Piano inspiriert.

Aus dem Inhalt: Intervalle und Dreiklänge ein Überblick; die Modi der Durskala und die II-V-I Verbindung; dreistimmige Voicings; sus und phrygische Akkorde; das Erweitern von dreistimmigen Voicings; Tritonussubstitution; Left-Hand Voicings; alterierte Töne in Left-Hand Voicings; Skalentheorie; Skalen in der Praxis; So What-Akkorde; Quartenakkorde; Upper Structures; pentatonische Skalen; Voicings; Stride und Bud Powell Voicings; Viertonskalen; Blockakkorde; Salsa und Latin Jazz; Comping; Üben; Hören; eine ausführliche Diskographie.

Composer note: The idea for a piano concerto for the Boston Symphony was instigated by Robert Levin, the great Mozart scholar and pianist. The idea was evidently embraced by BSO Artistic Administrator Tony Fogg and supported by Music Director James Levine. Much of the concerto was composed during the summer of 2004 at the American Academy in Rome in a secluded studio hidden within the Academy walls. While much of the composing took place far from home, the concerto comes out as a particularly “American” piece, shot through with vernacular elements. As in many of my compositions, simple, familiar musical ideas are the starting point. A shape, a melodic fragment, a rhythm, a chord, a texture, or a sonority may ignite the appetite for exploration. How such simple insignificant things can be altered, elaborated, extended, and combined becomes the exciting challenge of composition. I also want the finished work to breathe in a natural way, to progress spontaneously, organically, moving toward a transformation of the musical substance in ways unimaginable to me when I began the journey. Transformation is the goal, with the intention of achieving an altered state of perception and exposure that I am otherwise unable to achieve. “Chiavi in mano” – the title of the concerto – is the mantra used by automobile salesmen and realtors in Italy: Buy the house or the car and the keys are yours. But the more pertinent reason for the title is the fact that the piano writing is designed to fall “under the hand” and no matter how difficult it may be, it remains physically comfortable and devoid of stress. In other words: “Keys in hand.” –Yehudi Wyner, December 13, 2004.
