The first book to teach students to start soloing using rhythms instead of scales and chords. In a step-by-step fashion, Tom builds up the student's library of rhythmic figures and has them playing along with the accompanying audio to get the sound and feel of jazz soloing under their fingers. This Rhythm First method is more fun and therefore more successful in getting kids starting to improvise than any other approach. A must for any school band program! Audio is accessed online. |
