Beschreibung
'Sure - everybody has an opinion on how to play outside. But until now, no
one has made an in-depth exploration of the commonalities and differences in
how the greatest jazz players on the planet have incorporated their
inspiring, harmony defying techniques. With Playing Outside the Chord, David
Kane invokes a thoughtfully curated selection of transcribed phrases that
take the reader beyond the simple mechanics of what is being played and offer
revelatory insights into what the players are (or might be) thinking when
they play it. Its a daunting, seemingly impossible objective, yet here it is,
beautifully examined, notated, and explained in an accessible way that every
musician can understand.
''This book is a treasure trove, full of important information on
chromaticism and its usage. From Bach to Schoenberg, Dave covers a lot of
ground and the book is very well organized. He specifically addresses the
melodic aspect of improvisation, including lines and phrases, rather than the
usual emphasis on harmony. What's special is that he explores the feeling and
overall effect of the lines on the listener. This book is all you need as a
working guide towards understanding the implications of 20th century jazz and
classical music. -David Liebman
LEVEL-UP!!! If youre feeling uninspired, stuck, or limited by your current
play, this is the perfect book to help you break those chains, stimulate your
creativity, and take your playing and composing in compelling new directions.
Enthusiastically endorsed by modern jazz luminaries such as David Liebman and
Richie Beirach, Playing Outside the Chord is devoted to melodic phrasing that
transcends conventional chord/scale relationships. This exciting technique
incorporating the theory and practice of horizontal playing and extended
tonality pioneered by jazz titans such as Michael Brecker, Cory Henry, John
Scofield, Brad Meldhau, and Jacob Collier is a vital component of the modern
jazz performance and improvisation toolbox.
Featuring over 200 musical examples gleaned from classic solos, plus 15
extensive transcriptions of legendary performances, this book is skillfully
designed to clue you in on the theoretical basis of outside play as practiced
by these trail-blazing musicians. It systematically describes each type of
technique used, including timing and source considerations, and by doing so
unlocks a wealth of modern ideas that offer rich possibilities for the
creative improviser. Kanes insightful treatise on outside playing represents
an important expansion of the ideas available to the dedicated student of
improvisation. 164 pages. '
