From Dixie To Swing



19 pages, Item number 1060511DP, $24.98

Such jazz legends as Dick Wellstood, Alphonse 'Doc' Cheatham and George Duvivier and more back you up in this amazing collection of New York style Dixieland standards. After the break-up of the big band era around 1950, many of the finest 'swing' players found themselves without an outlet for their abilities. They took to playing Dixieland style in New York clubs such as Eddie Condon's and the Metropole. And so was born a new style of Dixieland jazz minus the banjos, tubas, steamboats and magnolias! It is this version we celebrate on this album. We encourage you, the soloist, to invent counter-melodies rather than mere harmony parts. This is a music of loose weaving parts, not one of precision ensemble figures. In short, it is one of the greatest improvisational experiences any jazz player could hope to have.
 
This book/CD package consists of a printed music score and a compact disc which includes one version of each song from the book, which is an accompaniment track for you to play along with!
