The Jazz Piano School: The easy introduction to the world of jazz piano playing
including QR codes + audio download!
After the successful piano schools such as “The Bar Piano School”, “Pop Piano in Practice”, “Rock & Pop Piano” or “The School for Blues Piano”, Michael Gundlach started with “The Jazz Piano School”. School” has once again created an exceptional and practice-oriented textbook for piano enthusiasts.
In “The Jazz Piano School” Michael Gundlach shows step by step the construction of simple to complex jazz chords and combines them into the chord progressions typical of jazz. In addition, an initial introduction to jazz improvisation is provided using some of the most important scales. All theoretical explanations have been designed with direct practical application in mind and have been implemented and explained in the jazz pieces of this piano school. This makes the theory explained directly comprehensible and unnecessary teaching content is avoided.
