Internationally renowned authors, musicians and recording artists, Frank Villafranca and Andrew D. Gordon of The Super Groovers have composed a collection of grooves and melodies in the Smooth Jazz Genre creating an exciting supplemental jazz study series for beginner, intermediate and advanced jazz students and musicians.After releasing their first CD Supergroovin, which received world wide airplay, they recognized a need in the music publishing business for a series of books on contemporary improvising within the "Smooth Jazz" genre. Andrew composed and recorded all the rhythm tracks used in this book. In their opinion, the melodies were so catchy they couldn't resist developing them into completed songs.Mainline Connection, Villefranche–sur-Mer and You're The Only One In My Life, are a few featured on their second CD, Mainline Connection.The smooth jazz grooves in this 50 page book feature a variety of contemporary rhythm section styles including R&B, Jazz, Funk, Top 40, Rock, Gospel, Hip Hop and Latin. These stylistic influences are frequently associated with smooth jazz. Popular artists in this genre include, The Super Groovers, David Sanborn, Eric Marienthal, Kenny G, David Benoit, Dave Koz, Tom Scott, Gerald Albright, Candy Dulfer, Wilton Felder, Boney James, Chris Botti, Chuck Mangione, Sade, George Benson, Peter White, Lee Ritenour, Earl Klugh, Larry Carlton, Jeff Lorber, Brian Culbertson, George Duke, Paul Hardcastle, Joe Sample, Spyro Gyra, Pat Metheny, Four Play, The Yellow Jackets and The Rippingtons. We suggest that you become acquainted with as many of these artists as possible.On each of the 20 tracks, the groove is separated into 3 melodic ideas. Each melodic idea (example or riff) is played first, by the Violin with the groove, followed by just the rhythm section groove, without the Violin. The 1st example is usually the easiest, the 2nd slightly harder and the 3rd the most difficult.The Super Groovers were very fortunate to have violinist extraordinaire Christian Howes perform and record the Violin examples in the book.Versions for each groove are available as midi files or extended MP3 files where the rhythm tracks for each groove are recorded for approximately 2 minutes.

GanJam by Ferdinand "Jelly Roll" Morton. Edited by James Dapogny. Jazz Ensembles. For 2 Alto Saxophones, 2 Tenor Saxophones, 3 Trumpets, 2 Trombones, Piano, Guitar, Doublebass, Drum. Modern, Jazz. Full score. 27 pages. Duration circa 4-7 minutes. Published by Edition Peters (PE.P68279).
ISBN 979-0-3007-5735-3. Modern, Jazz.
At the end of 1938, Jelly Roll Morton (1890- 1941) returned to New York from his years in Washington, D. C. Recent publicity had made a comeback seem possible, and he hoped to recapture the prominent place in the jazz world that he had held in the 1920s. Still well known, though mainly as a New Orleans music pioneer, he understood that in order to be taken seriously as a contemporary artist, he needed to form a big band like those of his competition, such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, and Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey. In the 1920s Morton's recordings and tours featured a ten-piece band following the first-generation big-band format. But in the late 1930s, larger groups were popular, so Morton assembled a conventional '30s band consisting of four saxophones, six brass, and four rhythm. The band was to open at the Golden Gate Ballroom in Harlem on April 17th, 1939, but on opening night Morton collapsed before going onstage. During his recuperation from the asthma and heart problems that dogged him, the band broke up, never to reassemble. Only six items written for that band's instrumentation are known to exist: Morton's arrangements of his own compositions -- Finger Breaker, GanJam, Good Old New York, Mister Joe, and Stop and Go -- and an arrangement, Mamies' Blues, by another artist. -- James Dapogny (Editor) For Jazz Orchestra (Full Score - for the Set of Parts, please see EP68279A).

Essential Jazz Lines in the Style of John Coltrane, Violin Edition Book/CD Set by Corey Christiansen and Kim Bock. For Violin. Improvisation. Essential Jazz Lines. Jazz play along. Beginning-Intermediate. Book/CD Set. 56 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc (MB.21820BCD).
ISBN 9780786679300. Jazz play along. 8.75x11.75 inches.
Saxophonist John Coltrane was one of the most innovative, creative, and influential jazz artists of the 20th Century. Both stylistically and harmonically, he opened doors for others to follow. This book will focus on the first period of Coltrane's career, when he was with Miles Davis, and the jazz vocabulary he used. First, to help the student better understand Coltrane's bebop style of improvising, the authors discuss the use of guide tones, bebop scales, three to flat nine, targeting, and other techniques. Then the text presents numerous one-, two-, and three-measure jazz lines in Coltrane's style grouped by the harmony over which they can be used. The accompanying play-along CD provides the rhythm parts for each section, including a track for each section that modulates through the cycle of fourths, helping you master the phrases in all keys. By combining various lines, musicians will be able to mix and match numerous combinations of these lines to play over ii-V-I progressions, turnarounds, and other harmonic situations. Incorporate these essential jazz lines into your vocabulary and you will be able to create your own lines in the style of John Coltrane.

ISBN 9780786676989. Jazz. 8.75x11.75 inches.
Learn to improvise in the Gypsy Jazz violin style even if you have never improvised before. The style is closely associated with French jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli, who played with Gypsy jazz guitar player Django Reinhardt. Each lesson in the book covers specific key aspects of the Gypsy jazz violin style. The techniques are presented sequentially and the underlying music theory is introduced on a need to know basis. Getting Into Gypsy Jazz Violin includes charts of classic swing tunes such as Avalon, The Sheik of Araby & After You've Gone and includes a CD featuring authentic accompaniment tracks and model violin performances. Because the Gypsy jazz violin style maintains common elements of traditional classical violin techniques such as vibrato and shifting, the book is a perfect vehicle for the classical violinist to learn to improvise without having to change their general approach to the instrument. Any intermediate or advanced violinist can learn to improvise in the Gypsy jazz violin style. Perfectly suited to classically trained violinists because the Gypsy jazz violin style is closely related to traditional classical violin techniques. Includes charts of classic swing tunes such as Avalon, The Sheik of Araby & After You!ve Gone. The 21 lessons are carefully sequenced to introduce key components of the Gypsy jazz violin style. Includes a CD with sample solos and exercises in addition to authentic Gypsy jazz guitar accompaniment tracks.

ISBN 9780786675883. Blues. 8.75x11.75 inches.
This book offers a comprehensive workshop in blues violin and specifically addresses improvisation techniques through exercises and ear training studies that relate to the various licks and scales. Original tunes by the author address various technical challenges, and old blues standards are included to build an authentic blues repertoire. The book next touches on the influence of the blues on swing, bluegrass, Cajun and Gypsy styles while teaching improvisational techniques in each. We next pay tribute to the great Blues violinists of the past and present with bios and some photos. Finally, ways to develop and vary breaks are explored. The text touches on many aspects of violin techniques as it relates to the blues and has an easygoing and at times, humorous appeal. The book begins at a moderate beginning level but quickly moves to intermediate material; toward the end, we get into fairly advanced territory. Both violinists who have been playing a couple of years and serious classical players can benefit from Getting Into Blues Violin.

Tango Bittersweet by Fred Hersch. For Cello (Violin), Piano. Modern. Late-intermediate / early advanced. Sheet Music. Duration circa 8 minutes. Published by Edition Peters (PE.P68120).
ISBN M-3007-5044-6. Modern.
This tango has been recorded several times in a variety of arrangements, including for clarinet and piano. In fact, in this publication the cello and violin parts diverge, highlighting the strengths and possibilities in each instrument. The left hand of the piano is very rhythmic throughout, embracing the percussive, syncopated character of the tango. The right hand sometimes supports the rhythm, sometimes the harmony, and sometimes the melody, and there is a section without the string instrument where the pianist shines. Somewhat jazzy; highly chromatic but never atonal.

ISBN 9780786666553. Jazz play along. 8.75x11.75 inches.
Jazz Cello/Bass Wizard Junior 2 is a continuation of Jazz Cello Wizard Junior (Mel Bay, 2002) and is designed for upper middle school and high school string students. JCWjr 2 uses the same basic approach as JCWjr; students learn mainly through imitation, the same way we learn to speak our native tongue. It also introduces very easy optional chord theory but only AFTER the student has experienced improvising with chords aurally. The books come in three versions - violin, viola, and cello/bass -designed to be used together in studio and classroom situations. This volume introduces three basic concepts that are prerequisites to advanced jazz improvising: solo development, modes, and inner melodies - the single most potent technique to get students to improvise on advanced progressions immediately.* Any student or teacher will learn to improvise independent of background.* Provides all the instructions and verbiage a newcomer to jazz will need to learn or teach from the method.* Includes swing, Latin, and blues styles incorporated into the lessons.* The five lessons are carefully sequenced to introduce key components of improvisation.* Four performance-quality pieces are included in a format that can be used with three cellos or basses, in a string orchestra or any other combination of string instruments (if used together with the other versions of the series).* Includes a CD with sample solos and exercises in addition to full rhythm section accompaniment tracks to the performance pieces.
