A complete lesson plan designed to guide the user through Jazz Tutor's course of study. This lesson plan, in addition to all other reference material, can be quickly customized, copied, and printed right from the Jazz Tutor control panel, or can be pasted into any word processor for greater editing control.
Jazz Tutor includes an extensive interactive Jazz Music Theory text book with twenty sub-headings, playable audio exercises, and hypertext information. This book was written as the main text for a jazz theory course at Rutgers University. Some of the sub-heading's and areas of study are: Scales; Modes; Chords; Melodies; Common Chord Substitutions; Writing Standard Form Songs; Accidentals; Extended Chord Progressions with Melodies; and many more.
The Jazz Tutor Chord Browser contains every chord you could ever think of, where you can hear the chords, and see the numerical value of every note. This section also includes the scales that accompany each chord.
We have also included an Advanced Improvisation section, with extraordinary, in-depth analysis of the original music in Jazz Tutor (including attention to study of the exact Phil Woods, Jim McNeely, and Brian Lynch solo's presented on the disc), ear training, aspects of style, and jazz improvisation techniques.
Also, for Woods fans new and old, we have provided a complete Phil Woods Discography.
And there's much more!
