Excelcia Music Publishing is excited to announce the new release of Solo Styles for Jazz: 18 Standards From The Great American Songbook, a new book arranged for developing Jazz players by veteran author and musician Peter Blair. Perfect for exploring a variety of Jazz styles, the 18 songs in this collection cover ballads, Bossa Novas, Blues and Straight-Ahead Swing. The arrangements in Solo Styles for Jazz were created for woodwind, brass, and percussion players with performance opportunities in mind, functioning as both effective teaching tools and as additions to students’ Jazz repertoire.

“To say that this project was truly a labor of love for me would be an understatement,” says author and arranger Peter Blair. “The arrangements in Solo Styles for Jazz are fresh takes on timeless standards from Jazz, Broadway, and Hollywood—the Great American Songbook—that I know students will enjoy playing today. I stayed true to the original intent of each song but presented them in a style that demonstrates the way a contemporary Jazz player might perform in a Jazz club or concert setting.”

Solo Styles for Jazz includes the melody and chord changes for each song in the book. Solo Styles for Jazz also includes two recorded tracks for each song: one with rhythm section accompaniment for easy play-along, and a full demonstration recording with soloist.

Books are available for the following instruments: Alto Saxophone/Baritone Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Trumpet/Clarinet, Trombone/Euphonium, and Vibraphone/Flute. Solo Styles for Jazz is available for $14.99 per book from music retailers and from the publisher.
