ENDORSEMENTS "This is one of the finest new jazz instruction books on the market. Written by an experienced, professional jazz player, the book is practical and unpretentious, with lots of valuable information for the beginning, intermediate or advanced improviser. The informality of his style cannot hide Mark's seriousness, attention to detail and true love of jazz piano." RICHIE BEIRACH "One of the best jazz piano books I've ever seen - very easy to understand." KENNY BARRON "A brilliant, comprehensive, exciting and highly readable book. It unlocks door after door of contemporary piano jazz sounds." DOWN BEAT MAGAZINE "I really like this book because it covers all the bases. An invaluable resource for any keyboard player." JAMEY AEBERSOLD "One of the most complete anthologies on jazz piano in recent years. The research and attention to detail, the nuances and musical examples in each chapter are most refreshing, as are the photos. Stylistically covering artists from Teddy Wilson through Mulgrew Miller, in a way that has rarely been dealt with in other jazz piano literature." JAMES WILLIAMS "This is a great book!" EDDIE PALMIERI
