Product details
Please note that due restrictions of copyright we are only able to supply cassettes of recorded examples with this kit.
Consists of four cassette tapes and an
instructional book, divided into three sections. The first of
these provides a history of jazz in Australia. The second
explains and demonstrates the basic musical characteristics of
jazz performance and composition. The third exemplifies a number
of jazz styles through analyses and teaching activities
associated with a selection of pieces by Australian jazz
musicians.
Tape one provides historical examples (from World War I to the
Great Depression; from Swing to the end of World War II; postwar
to the Beatles; from 1964 to the present). Tape two provides
examples of theoretical points (swing feel; chord symbols;
voicing; bass lines; comping; blues harmonic progressions;
improvisation) and gives opportunities for students to improvise
as they study each aspect of jazz. Tape three contains the
recordings that are discussed in the notes, providing examples of
different jazz styles.
After the analysis of each piece there are activities in aural
analysis, performance and composition.
