Description

This theoretical book is meant to improve contemporary jazz styles techniques for all musician players of modern jazz.

We will divide this book into scale exercises, arpeggio exercises, jazz line phrases as well as contemporary chord progressions. Exercises consist of jazz solos by great musicians such Miles Davis, Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Freddy Hubbard, Woody Shaw, Wayne Shorter, Joe Henderson, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Joe Farrel, Dave Liebman. Bob Berg, Michael and Randy Brecker, Jerry Bergonzi, George Garzone,Tom Harrel, Chris Potter, Brad Mehldau, Joey Calderazzo, Kenny Garret, Branford Marsalis, Walt Weiskopf, Rich Perry, Seamus Blake, Alex Sipiagin and many others well known musicians these days.

The majority of theses exercises should be transposed to all twelve tones, so we can achieve perfect coordination> Major chords, Minos chords and Dominant chords will be extended to their highest level, in scales, arpeggios and chromatic form. There will not be key signature centers, so we will work all exercises in accidental way.

These exercises were made as an extension of my first book Imprivise Now (Charles Colin Publications). There are as well many improvisational lines transcribed from some of the previously mentioned musicians.

History
In jazz, the bass instrument functions –as the bridge between rhythm and harmony– provide a strong beat and the root notes of the chords. In the early history of jazz, the instruments used in this foundational role were the string bass, the tuba and the bass saxophone.Jazz bass is the use of the double bass or bass guitar to improvise accompaniment (“comping”) basslines and solos in a jazz or jazz fusionstyle. Players began using the double bass in jazz in the 1890s to supply the low-pitched walking basslines that outlined the chord progressions of the songs. From the 1920s and 1930s Swing and big band era, through 1940s Bebop and 1950s Hard Bop, to the 1960s-era “free jazz” movement, the resonant, woody sound of the double bass anchored everything from small jazz combos to large jazz big bands.
Beginning in the early 1950s, some jazz bass players began to use the electric bass guitar in place of the double bass. The electric bass, which was easier to amplify to loud volumes onstage, gained particular prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970s jazz subgenre which blended jazz with the powerfully amplified electric instruments of rock music, creating jazz fusion.
Most jazz bassists specialize in either the double bass or the electric bass, although the ability to “double” (play both instruments) is common. A small number of players, such as Stanley Clarke and John Patitucci, have achieved virtuoso skill on both instruments. Whether a jazz bassist is “comping” (accompanying) with a walking bassline or soloing, or playing on a double bass or an electric bass, they usually aim to create a rhythmic drive and “timefeel” that creates a sense of swing and groove.Typically when playing jazz music, it is preferred to be played on a standard small or medium bore tenor trombone with no extra attachments, as it will give the brightest sound and is more comfortable
to play for longer periods of time in the extreme ranges of the instrument that you tend to hit playing jazz music. There are certain techniques that trombone players will prominently find in jazz music, or jazz inspired music, such as growling, scooping, falling, flutter tongue, use of mutes, multiphonics, and even recently with some players, distortion effects. Also, when working on techniques many musicians use specific scales to help apply techniques, and also to practice scales to use while soloing:The trombone is a musical instrument from the brass instrument family. Trombone’s first premiere in jazz was with Dixieland Jazz as a supporting role within the Dixie Group. This role later grew into the spotlight as players such as J.J. Johnson and Jack Teagarden began to experiment more with the instrument, finding that it can fill in roles along with the saxophone and trumpet in Bebop Jazz. The trombone has since grown to be featured in standard big band group setups with 3 to 4 trombones depending on the arrangement. Even today the trombone is still growing in popularity with groups and in music with different techniques being attempted and brought up. The trombone is not easy to play for left handed people, although well known trombone player Slide Hampton was a professional player that used a left-handed grip and style. A person who plays the trombone is called a trombone player or a trombonist. Also, when working on techniques many musicians use specific scales to help apply techniques, and also to practice scales to use while soloing.
