      Jazz Track

      Nov 11, 2018

      If knowing that a solo pianist is playing a Steinway even infinitesimally narrows your idea of how this album may sound, forget it: disorienting and enchanting post-production treatments make it like hearing a piano conversing with its own ghost. It

      An impressively large tome, this seems to be a fairly comprehensive and authoritative treatise on the subject of music theory in the jazz world. It contains lots of examples written out for piano and seems to assume at least some basic knowledge of music theory - e.g. it doesn't tell you how to read music. The writing style is generally clear and the book is well laid out. The spiral binding makes it quite handy to use. Plenty of material in here to keep you busy for quite some time.
