Saxophonist
John Coltrane was one of
the most innovative,
creative, and influential
jazz artists of the 20th
Century. Both
stylistically and
harmonically, he opened
doors for others to
follow. This book will
focus on the first period
of Coltranes career, when
he was with Miles Davis,
and the jazz vocabulary
he used. First, to help
the student better
understand Coltranes
bebop style of
improvising, the authors
discuss the use of guide
tones, bebop scales,
three to flat nine,
targeting, and other
techniques. Then the text
presents numerous one-,
two-, and three-measure
jazz lines in Coltranes
style in notation and
tablature grouped by the
harmony over which they
can be used. The
accompanying play-along
online audio 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 John Coltrane.
Includes access to online
audio.
