Overview

50 Ways to Improve Your Improvisational Skills

Hal Leonard's Amazing Phrasing will teach you how to improvise and how to improve your creative phrasing. The ideas are divided into 3 sections: Harmony (explores scales, arpeggios, chord substitutions, harmonic embellishments, and other harmonic phrasing ideas), Rhythm (covers legato tonguing, swing feel, rhythmic displacement, how to manipulate time, and other aspects of rhythmic phrasing), Melody (discusses contour lines, making patterns musical, developing a motif, building a solo, and many other melodic phrasing ideas). The companion Online Audio contains demos for listening, as well as many play-along examples so you can practice improvising over various musical styles and progressions. 101 pages.
