Mark Levinen jazz-kirja pianisteille on alan klassikkoja. Levine käy jazzin sointu- ja säveloppia läpi, antaa yksityiskohtaisia harjoitustehtäviä ja pyrkii analysoimaan eri jazz-standardeihin soitettuja improvisaatioita niin sävelkulultaan kuin sointustruktuuriltaan.
An impressively large tome, this seems to be a fairly comprehensive and authoritative treatise on the subject of music theory in the jazz world. It contains lots of examples written out for piano and seems to assume at least some basic knowledge of music theory - e.g. it doesn't tell you how to read music. The writing style is generally clear and the book is well laid out. The spiral binding makes it quite handy to use. Plenty of material in here to keep you busy for quite some time.

What it doesn't do very well is prepare you to actually play this stuff. For example, the book takes 245 pages before it gets to "how should you be practicing what we've been talking about so far?" If you're like me and generally just dive into books at the front, this is NOT A PARTICULARLY GOOD STRATEGY. This is part of a more general flaw in the book, which is that it's disorganized. There are 16 chapters total which are organized more by theme than usefulness or skill progression. If I were to rework it, I'd suggest reading the chapters in the following order: 1, 4, 2, 3, 5, 12, 6---that's the order I wish I had approached them.… (mer)
