Synopsis

Speckert's popular "The Roots of Jazz" collection of jazz pieces and styles for violin and cello now comes in an edition for two cellos. Whether it be arrangements of originals such as "The Entertainer" (Scott Joplin), "Hot Tiger Rag" (Nick la Rocca), "St Louis Blues" (W. C. Handy), "Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen" (trad) or original compositions by George Speckert, these pieces not only have catchy tunes and snappy rhythms, they're also easy to play. Exciting stuff! With skill and sensitivity Speckert, who actually was born in New Orleans, captures the typical melodic, harmonic and rhythmic style of each genre, whether ragtime, blues, boogie woogie, gospel, folksong or early jazz. Equally suitable for music-making fun in lessons, recitals or your own living room. * Manufacturer ID: BA10649 * Format: Set of Performance Scores
