Synopsis

A complete guide to three-note jazz guitar voicings and related topics for everyone from intermediate newcomers to jazz guitar up to very advanced players. The book develops a unique dynamic concept of harmony where three independently moving lines team up to create beautiful harmonies that are valuable for comping, chord melodies and chordal jazz improvisations. Topics include: Three-note shell voicings and special derived comp voicings - Compete triad review including all close and open inversions on all strings - A section on developing walking guitar voicings, harmonized bass lines perfect for accompaniment in situations where no bass or keyboard is present - Sections on triad applications such as slash chords, Upper Structures, hexatonic triad-pairs and special hybrid voicings - Quartal and Secundal voicings perfect for modal comping and soloing - Drop-2 reductions perfect for melody harmonizations - Envious of pianists using lush Shearing-style block chords? Here's a complete method to develop a realistic simulation on guitar.- Plus much more! Hundreds and hundreds of examples in both music notation and guitar grids.
