David Sudnow -Jazz Standards Piano Arrangements - 03-20-2011, 06:04 PM

When you get through these step-by-step audios, you will have a solid standard repertoire and an approach to add many more songs.

In these audio lessons, David Sudnow talks you through chord voicings and playing tips (ie. arrangements) of standards for solo piano. You should have sheet music for the song on which to make notes. The Hal Leonard Fake Book is recommended for the closest to the correct keys and chords for the songs. On the sheet, you should note his voicing suggestions in a fractional notation. Example: M - (Melody note) b3 - Flat third 9 - ninth of the root of the chord ____ - underneath the line are the left hand bass notes b7 - flatted seventh of the root of the chord (R) - The Root of the chord can almost always be played. (Assumed. No need to write it down). The above example voices a simple minor ninth (m9) chord. A sample marked up song with voicings is enclosed as SampleSheet.pdf If you didn't know that, you will know that and a lot more rapidshare.com by the time you learn a few of these arrangements! Songs included here are: Melancholy Baby Misty Angel Eyes Can't Take That Away From Me As Time Goes By Ain't Misbehavin' Favorite Things Imagination
