Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate guitarist, this book/CD pack will help you to understand and learn the art of jazz chord soloing in four stages. Four jazz standards are presented, each with four arrangements atvarying levels of difficulty: a beginner's arrangement, using mostly first-position chords - an intermediate arrangement, using moveable chords and featuring a more developed chord vocabulary - an advanced arrangement, includingample chord substitutions and reharmonization - an improvisational chord solo that leaves the melody behind. This teaches how to improvise a chord solo over a given set of changes. Plenty of information is presented along the waythat will teach you how to build your own chord solos as well as understand and play jazz progressions.
