About this title

Synopsis

Please find the song index (94 Jazz Standards Progressions with upper structure quartals) at the end of this description.This volume is part of the complete set of 1000+ Jazz Standards in three volumes split alphabetically in 3 books (A to F, G to O, P to Z) with around 100 songs each with upper structure quartals over every chord that allows a perfect or altered quartal as an upper structure.In other words, instead of giving you a list of upper structure quartals to use on every chord, we show you the application of this concept over the complete jazz repertoire. It includes: Jazz Standards (Original Progressions) with Upper Structure Quartals. All progressions show Perfect or Altered Quartals as upper structures over every chord.Knowing how to voice chords is an essential skill, not only for comping (accompanying or laying the chord progression for others player to improvise over), but also to use those voicings as an improvisational aid. Many players get their melodic ideas or lines from chord voicings.The standard approach to study and practice upper structures is to obtain a list of quartals (from your teacher, or a book) that work well on certain type of chords and then practice that combination in all keys. These methods do not usually consider the function that the chord might be playing in a progression leading to a lack of understanding of when to use a certain upper structure over a chord. Why does this upper structure work here but not there?The upper structures have been chosen using a chord/chord-scale pairing method to determine which upper structure to use over a chord depending on their current harmonic function in a progression. This amazing collection is unique in the Jazz World.Index of Jazz Standards Progressions in this book:PAPER DOLLPASSION FLOWERPEACEPEGGY'S BLUE SKYLIGHTPENTHOUSE SERENADEPENT UP HOUSEPERI'S SCOPEPFRANCING (NO BLUES)PITHECANTHROPUS ERECTUSPRELUDE TO A KISSP.S.
