Not So Smooth Jazz
Masterclass Play-Along CD
Sheet music in Eb is in the magazine
Click
here for sheet music in Bb
(This is a very large file so please be patient in downloading the Bb part)
Welcome to this Masterclass play-along
CD on commercial and contemporary jazz playing. The topics to be discussed
are for use on smooth jazz, funk, rock, and rhythm and blues. Over
the past few months, it has been an absolute blast preparing the materials
for publication. It is my hope that players of all levels can gain
something from this presentation. Younger students should find the
material challenging yet obtainable. Teachers and experienced students
can find the play-along selections helpful in discovering more about
this extremely popular style.
I’m Skip Spratt and this is the first masterclass CD I have prepared
for publication in Saxophone Journal. I have been writing interviews
for the Saxophone Journal for the past few years and most of my subjects
have been icons on the NAC (National Adult Contemporary) charts since
the “smooth jazz” name tag appeared. Andy Snitzer, Ed Calle, Michael
Lington, and Warren Hill have all given their take on smooth jazz
in previous interviews. My pending interview with Steve Cole will
give readers another perspective on contemporary playing and the music
business. |
