Excellent Jazz Resource

Recommended Posts

Stumbled across [url="http://www.opus28.co.uk/jazzarticles.html"]this[/url] website, with a ton of free articles. Has some really great ideas, as well as how to apply them to your practice routine.

Some great discussions of bebop phrasing and note choice, as well as more complex modern stuff like hexatonic scales and synthetic scales based on melodies of tunes. Wicked!


EDIT- [url="http://davidvaldez.blogspot.com"]This blog[/url] is also a fantastic resource, with a lot of links to more of the modern jazz language (modes of the harmonic major anyone?)

Can't download here but looks exciting; will look at home. Thanks for the tip off, H.

Edit: the links open.

Some great stuff on here. I wish I had time to spend with it all. If this stuff had been around when I was a kid and could practice all day, who knows what may have come to pass.

The top link is the first result when googling "jason lyon jazz", and the the other link is the first result when googling "david valdez jazz saxophone". Maybe you can access them that way?
