Basic Piano Jazz / Rock Course Improvisation Books
Improvisation is a skill that can be learned by all students; it’s an important musical tool because it allows the performer to express their own individual feelings and develop their own unique creativity.
A course within a course, the Jazz/Rock Improvisation Books:
Your child - or you! - will be taught all of the necessary improvisational concepts, including dynamics, rhythms and scales, in simple, easy-to-learn steps. Each new skill is presented in a progressive order and followed by reinforcement exercises which allow students to try different interpretations. All of the Improvisation Books allow for Carolyne to play duet (jam!) along with your child as they are learning.
You are welcome to purchase any of these additional books and Carolyne will then incorporate them into your child's lesson.
For the greatest effect, one of each level (Lesson, Improvisation, Performance) should be worked on at the same time.
