" ... Comping for an imaginary soloist, as is done on the Aebersold play-a-long recordings, can be a tricky business. It is ... easy for the comping to turn into a piano chord solo which is far too busy and cluttered up rhythmically or melodically. The soloist is left with no space in which to play. The goal [is] to supply the harmony and play something that feels good so that any soloist will be comfortable playing with the prerecorded rhythm accompaniment. The problem is that the element of interaction is removed. Since there is no soloist playing as the track is recorded, there is no possibility of reacting to rhythmic or harmonic elements that [one] might employ. [Dan Haerle's] approach is to comp as though [he] were an arranger creating a sax or trombone background behind a solo in a jazz band chart ... A good background would generally have some melodic interest (though restrained) and would sound the harmony to support the solo. Also, there would be enough rhythmic life in it to inject some energy into the music and hopefully stimulate the soloist ..."--Dan Haerle.

Incredible professional comping over the changes of landmark Miles Davis compositions by a noted master. Titles: So What (slow) * So What (fast) * All Blues * Blue In Green * Nardis * Eighty One * Freddie Freeloader * and more. Why you should consider this and other Aebersold piano voicing transcription books: Ever listen to a great jazz pianist and wonder "what's he doing there?" Now you'll know! Here, as never before, is an opportunity to see real jazz piano voicings and comping over real songs in real live musical settings. These historic books contain note-for-note transcriptions, exactly as recorded, of the exciting piano accompaniment from the World Famous Aebersold play-along series. Not just for pianists, there are many ways for all musicians to use these wonderful musical tools. Pianists: First, listen closely to the pianist on the respective play-along recording (sold separately). Next, reading from the book, play along with him, imitating his style. Finally, turn him off (using the special stereo separation on all of our CDs) and play along by yourself with the bass and drums. With the techniques learned, you'll soon be improvising your own accompaniment! Non-Pianists: Horn players, arrangers and vocalists can use these books like dictionaries to look up favorite voicings they've heard on a particular play-along track. Written clearly for two hands, even the most novice pianist can play many sections of these books. Teachers/Educators: Give your combo piano students instant jazz voicings and harmonies over a variety of standards and styles. As personal tools, they will enhance your own understanding of voicings and voice movement and provide you with better skills for accompanying your students.

"The first and most important task for the jazz pianist is to produce chords. Jazz is a harmonically-based music ... This book will not emphasize the art of improvisation ... Rhythm is important too, but it is best learned by imitation and transcriptions ... chord progressions of tunes used in jazz are nearly always given in chord symbols, which the keyboard player is expected to decipher and arrange into an attractive chord voicing. As a new symbol will appear about every two to eight beats ... the pianist has to develop quick responses in order to find and play each chord within its assigned duration ..."--Introduction
