Jazz is a language and scales are the alphabet.
This book covers the common scales used in jazz that will help you speak the language.
Jazz violin is about expressing yourself through your instrument.
The more you know your instrument the better you can express yourself. Jazz scales help you to learn where everything is on your instrument for jazz.
Improvisation cannot happen with scales alone, but they are a necessary evil for you to master. Scales have their place and they can sometimes be boring to practice.
But...once you know them, you know them forever!
This is a INTERMEDIATE to ADVANCED level book for violinists comfortable reading scales from 1st position to three-octave scales. Scales are covered in all 12 keys. Some keys and positions may be too advanced for beginning violin players (beginners should focus on the scales in 1st position).
Traditional scales repeat the root note at the top and/or bottom of the scale. The scales in Jazz Violin Workouts: Jazz Scales Every Violinist Should Know do not repeat root notes, which will provide a better sense of flow. This also gives the scales a more musical and practical sound.
The main sections of this book cover:
- Modes
- Bebop Scales
- Pentatonic Scales
- Blues Scales
- Chromatic Scales
- Whole Tone Scales
- Diminished Scales
