Edition: Paperback Book & Online Audio, Bass

Description: 40 Pages

Intermediate Jazz Conception is another addition to the popular series of etude books created by Jim Snidero, featuring some of the finest jazz musicians in the world. This book/Online Audio set includes the bass lines used to accompany a soloist performing 15 etudes based on standards, modal tunes and blues, demonstrated by Paul Gill on bass with the incredibly swinging rhythm section of Dave Hazeltine on piano and Kenny Washington on Drums.

The recording features two separate versions of each etude; one with the complete performance and one without the bass in the mix. Hear how Paul Gill constructs his lines and performs musically within the group, play with or without the bassist on the cd, and learn about both jazz style and improvisation from some of the best.
