Book Frank Vignola Walking the Bass Jazz Standard Progressions

Download or read book Frank Vignola Walking the Bass Jazz Standard Progressions written by Frank Vignola and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains ten walking bass lines to ten of the most common chord progressions from jazz standards. These walking bass lines will give you a good basis for what to play and how to outline the chords to provide a good solid walking bass line for soloists to improvise over. I strongly suggest that you memorize these bass lines and try to substitue different notes here and there to alter the tonal colors. Also, play the given arpeggios to better hear the chord you are playing while being aware of the interval you are playing. Practice these slowly and with chordal accompaniment.

Then the book presents one- and two-measure patterns that can be used in playing the blues, rhythm changes, the II-V-I progression, and 20 popular jazz standards. the book is written in standard notation with chord symbols. the CD gives you the opportunity to play with one of the finest rhythm sections around. It is in stereo, with the bass and drums on the left and piano and drums on the right.
