A Guide to Non-Jazz Improvisation. Piano Edition composed by Dan Fox and Dick Weissman. For Keyboard. Piano. Squareback saddle-stitched, Improvisation. All Styles. Beginning-Intermediate. Book. CD Set. 132 pages. Published by Mel Bay Publications, Inc. MB.20828BCD. ISBN 9780786675524. All Styles. 8.75 x 11.75 inches. This book will appeal to pianists who want to learn to improvise in many of the styles current today including blues, rock, Latin-American, country, New Age, World Music, etc. The non-jazz improvisation series is a concept that germinated in Dick Weissman's mind while he was attending music school. He wrote a 15-piece arrangement of the old square dance tune, Cripple Creek, and wanted the trombone to take a solo as part of the arrangement. When the trombonist kept playing a bebop solo that was totally unsuitable for the chart, Dick realized that - in addition to the many musicians who do not improvise - there are even jazz musicians who don't know how to improvise outside the limits of their own stylistic backgrounds. The non-jazz improvisation series mostly includes new original tunes that are intended to show how to improvise in many musical styles, including. Blues. Country. American folk. Latin-American. World music including South American, Eastern European and Asian. Odd meters. playing in a variety of time signatures. New Age.. Classical. Folk-Rock. In short, the books are an encyclopedia of virtually every musical style, excluding jazz.
