Joe Pass - Essential Jazz Lines - Book and CD
Taught by Corey Christianson, contains a study of lines used by Joe Pass, broken down and grouped according to how Joe used them harmonically. The play-along CD exemplifies how these relate to a harmonic background. Each harmonic section contains a play-along recording in the original key and a play-along, moving in fourths, to help the student practice the lines in all twelve keys. Eventually, the student will learn to mix and match these ideas and create lines of their own. The more phrases and ideas a student has, the more they are able to improvise or juxtapose their ideas to create new melodies on their own.
