Step by step, this book guides you towards free improvisation in jazz, rock and pop. Each chapter is based on a simple piece of music that can be practised with a band on the play-along CD. There are also brief explanations of which notes sound good when improvising and why. Sample solos by experienced musicians serve as models for your own attempts. The method book can also be used in a band context at school or music school (from around two years’ instrumental tuition). Further editions are available for guitar, piano, C, E flat and instruments in the bass clef.
