| Halberstadt Mataphors for the Musician |
| A "perspective from a jazz pianist" that is helpful to all jazz musicians. This book was designed to be a supplement to books dedicated to jazz piano or jazz theory. While some of the book does focus primarily on piano, we felt that there were several "nuggets" of wisdom that can be applied to all musicians that play jazz. The theory described in this work is truly unique and has the potential to be very helpful to the reader. |

| Pease Jazz Composition |
| When you think of jazz composers, who comes to mind? Jelly Roll Morton, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, Bob Brookmeyer. This book is about what they (and many others) do. Jazz composition has evolved into a disciplined art that often evidences great emotional depth and breadth of sophistication. Berklee College of Music legend Ted Pease demystifies the processes involved in writing jazz tunes and in composing episodic and extended jazz works. Jazz Composition: Theory and Practice is a by-product of Pease's 25 years of teaching jazz composition. The accompanying CD helps demonstrate melody, harmony and rhythmic elements of jazz and also includes a variety of music-writing exercises focused on learning these same elements to help you begin producing your own effective jazz compositions. |
