Getting into Gypsy Jazz Violin

Learn to improvise in the Gypsy Jazz violín style even if you have never improvised before. The style is closely associated with French jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli who played with Gypsy jazz guitar player Django Reinhardt. Each lesson in the bool covers specific key aspects of the Gypsy jazz violín style. The techniques are presented sequentially and the underlying music theory is introduced on a "need to know" basis.

Getting Into® Gypsy Jazz Violín includes charts of classic swing tunes such as "Avalon", "The Sheik of Araby" and "After You've Gone" and includes a Dowload Tracks featuring authentic accompaniment tracks and model violín performances. Because the Gypsy jazz violín style maintains common elements of traditional classical violín techniques such as vibrato and shifting, the book is a perfect vehicle for the classi cal violinist to learn to improvise without having to change their general approach to the instrument.
