Fingerings and string choices are often given too, making it particularly valuable to guitarists who want to actually master their instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003eSome of the harmonic situations dealt with include:\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eFast-moving cycles such as the bridge of \"Jordu\"\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eChromatic II-V changes\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eTurnarounds, including many that are useful for dealing with \"rhythm changes\"\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eJimmy Heath''s \"C.T.A.\" changes\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eJohn Coltrane''s \"Giant Steps\" changes.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eIn addition, slower moving II-Vs are covered, using various strategies for stringing together the short cells into long flowing lines.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e189 pages!\u003c\/li\u003e  \u003c\/ul\u003e    \u003cp\u003eThere is a complete discussion of how to break out of diatonic-derived lines by using the cellular approach to create \"side-slipping\" and other intervallic lines — creating ultra-hip solo phrases in the style of modern masters such as Pat Metheny, Michael Brecker and Herbie Hancock.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003eFinally, the cell concept gets transcended as twelve tone rows in the style of Mike Stern and others are explored, as well as lines derived from \"23rd chords\" — for the adventurous that are interested in paving a way into the future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316690526590,"sku":"NW9781883217815","price":24.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781883217815.jpg?v=1778719595","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/jazz-guitar-soloing-cellular-approach","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
