The goal
of Modal Jazz Composition
& Harmony, Volume 2 is to
continue the
dissemination of
information that presents
a path of study for the
aspiring jazz composer.
Where Volume 1 of the
book emphasized the
preparation of a modal
harmonic foundation, this
volume will introduce
concepts of melody
writing and a study of
the styles of jazz
compositions that are an
intrinsic addition to the
contemporary jazz
composer's repertoire.
Also included are
chapters on harmonization
and reharmonization
techniques---as many of
the concepts presented
reflect an influence of
Gil Evans, Duke Ellington
and Charles Mingus as
well as those of Herbie
Hancock---and on
pentatonic tunes that are
harmonized with a modal
harmonic foundation. As
with Volume 1, an
appendix with additional
peripheral information is
included for the student
desiring theoretical
explanation and
additional examples.
