{"product_id":"the-shape-method-lynn-baker-9781500432560","title":"The Shape Method: for Jazz Improvisation","description":"The Shape Method for Jazz Improvisation offers a unique approach to learning improvisation. By focusing on the underlying concepts of rhythmic and melodic shape it offers students a framework to unlock the secrets of the phrasing of master improvisers. This approach liberates the learner from scale\/chord relationships and \"lick\" playing and enables them to create their individual jazz voice within the tradition. Each chapter includes a discussion of a rhythmic and pitch-based melodic shape concept, examples of these concepts from master improvisers, suggested listening relevant to the concepts, and composition and performance exercises.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynn Baker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500432563\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781500432560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.35d","brand":"Lynn Baker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44130579382527,"sku":"9781500432560","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b35aa83a-3a97-4f71-951d-87c113dd10f3.jpg?v=1687470140","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-shape-method-lynn-baker-9781500432560","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
