""Practical Jazz Theory for Improvisation"" is a jazz theory text with an emphasis on improvisation. Originally conceived as the Jazz Theory/Improvisation text and curriculum for the 2014 National Jazz Workshop, it has already been adopted by several university jazz programs. This book begins at a level accessible by students just beginning in jazz, with reference appendices to fill any fundamental music theory knowledge, yet progresses systematically in technical and conceptual content well beyond all but the most advanced college improvisation classes. With notated examples and exercises demonstrating all concepts as well free downloadable play-along tracks for all exercises, this book will have students playing the material almost immediately. While not required, the available 300+ page companion book, ""Practical Jazz Theory for Improvisation Exercise Workbook"" (available in treble and bass clef) has all exercises notated in all keys to allow for quicker technical and aural advancement.

Guitar Theory Handbook by Pete Swann Pdf

As I read through this book, it started as an "I knew that, I knew that..." experience. But as the pages turned, even the most knowledgeable musician would start to say, "well I knew that too, but I wasn't aware of where that came from" or "now I've never thought of it that way before". Soon I was saying, "now I never knew that" and "there's an inversion I've never encountered" and "so that's how that works!" Note by note, scale by scale, mode by mode and chord by chord Pete Swann uncovers, demystifies and unclouds the reasons why music works the way it does. Its laid out in a clear and logical manner. Believe me, there's enough knowledge between the covers of this book to keep you busy for the rest of this lifetime and halfway through the next one. - Wendell Fergusson, multiple Juno and multiple CCMA Guitar Player of the year winner
