Let’s
Play Jazz & More by
Jay Latulippe
is one of the most widely accepted and innovative approaches to be released in over a decade. With the latest addition of Book 3, “Playing
the Blues,” the entire methodical series has come together, and the
ultimate goal of learning how to improvise from the very beginning has been achieved, while gaining
all the necessary skills needed to become a well rounded student of piano.
Let’s
Play Jazz & More is
not your typical, classic approach toward learning to play the piano. Its
innovation and effectiveness are the result of the belief in a very simple
philosophy… learning music is supposed to be fun! This 4 book series is ideal for use in private study as well as in a group setting. Teachers with a
variety of musical backgrounds will find it easy to implement the techniques
presented in this progressively different, yet educationally sound and complete
piano curriculum.
