Jazz Guitar Structures: Boosting Your Solo Power

Rate this book
For guitarists, the technical learning curve for improvisation is fairly steep. For this reason, it is important to find multiple uses for the musical structures that you learn to execute. This approach decreases the learning curve considerably. This book and accompanying audio show you how to expand your improvisational vocabulary by combining small, easily identifiable melodic ideas (structures) into longer, more complex lines. The material is written in standard notation. Includes access to online audio.

A fresh new way to organize ones thinking utilizing scale snippets (structures) to suggest alternate scale sounds by beginning the structures on various scale tones. Very good info, however for the most part the book is written only in standard music notation which is difficult for the vast majority of guitar players to access. In 2010 ANY guitar book of this quality and at this price should have examples provided in guitar tabulature. For this reason I only give it three star
