Lennie Niehaus Plays The Blues Solos / Etudes In All 12 Keys Book & Online Audio

These hip, swinging etudes in the swing / bop style are a great source for blues and bebop licks! Lennie Niehaus wrote these specifically to be played with the tracks from Jamey's Volume 42: Blues in All Keys. There is one complete solo (etude) for each of the 12 keys and 12 tracks. This book of solos is also great jazz sight reading material, since it contains all of the most-used jazz rhythms and syncopation you'll ever encounter. Perfect for learning your way around the blues---even in the tough keys! Intermediate level.

Students and teachers alike will enjoy playing these musical, lyrical jazz solos with or without the exhilarating accompaniment of the Volume 42 play-along. The audio includes complete performances of each solo by Lennie with a piano, bass, and drum rhythm section (from the Volume 42: Blues in All Keys play-along) so that you can absorb and internalize proper jazz sound and feel.
