Following on the success of guitar legend Barry Finnerty's first book, "The Serious Jazz Practice Book", Sher Music Co. has released the second volume in this series of woodshed classics.
Like the first volume, "The Serious Jazz Book II" has garnered rave reviews from the jazz community, including endorsements by Joe Lovano, Mark Levine and Hubert Laws. World-renowned jazz educator Jamey Aebersold says, "This is an extremely thorough book. The exercises are concise, challenging and very much worth the effort. Highly recommended!"
In this book, Barry (who recorded with Miles Davis, the Brecker Bros. and the Crusaders, among others) shows how to become a better soloist by melodically mastering the individual chords used in jazz, how they connect with each other, and how they are used in various song forms.
The retail price is $32 for this 200 page book that will keep your chops up for a lifetime. Sample pages and more information is available at www.shermusic.com. Sold at better music stores world-wide or directly from our website.
