Micco\u2019s Jazz Etudes & Exercises is a brand new play-a-long book for jazz students, committed \namateurs and professionals. These etudes have been written for the trumpet, trombone and \nsaxophone, but are also available in concert key for singers, pianists and guitarists. The book \nfeatures sixteen etudes based on six jazz tunes, each etude covering various scale and pattern \nexercises.<\/h4>\n
For five of the tunes I have written three etudes in different tempos (slow, medium and \nmedium-up or uptempo). This gives you the option to practice the easiest etude (no. 1) at the \nfastest tempo (no. 3) or reversely the most advanced etude (no. 3) at the slowest tempo (no. 1). \nIt\u2019s up to you! There is also a \u201djam track\u201d for each tune which enables you to trade fours or eights \nwith me. In addition, you will find tracks featuring only the rhythm section, allowing you to play the \nmelody and then improvise freely.<\/h4>\n
All the etudes have phrasing markings indicating how I articulate each phrase. However, feel free \nto come up with your own way of phrasing. In addition, the book includes a few jazz licks you can \npractice as well as exercises based on different scales. There is also an easy warm-up routine \nwhich has been written for the trumpet but may be used for all brass instruments. \nThe play-a-long recording features a live band: Teemu Eronen on the drums, Eerik Siikasaari on \nthe bass and me on the piano. It was recorded at Teemu\u2019s Klassikko studio by Hannu \nLamminm\u00e4ki. I later recorded the trumpet parts in my home studio.<\/h4>\n
The songs: \n1. Eddie Freelancer: A medium blues inspired by Freddie Freeloader from Miles \nDavis\u2019 Kind Of Blue album<\/h4>\n
2. Maybe Not: A medium-uptempo modal tune inspired by the Miles Davis classic So What<\/h4>\n
3. Groovy Hat: A funky bossa nova based on four scales.<\/h4>\n
4. I Got It: A simplified version of the George Gershwin classic I Got Rhythm with a different bridge \nand a New Orleans second line groove<\/h4>\n
5. Making O: A funky tune inspired by the saxophonist Maceo Parker, who is best know for his \nlong association with James Brown<\/h4>\n
6. Bluesy Minority: A swinging medium to medium-uptempo shuffle \nThis hard bop tune was inspired by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers as well as Cannonball \nAdderley.<\/h4>\n
