Trinity College London: Improvisation: Every Musician's Guide 1 (en Inglés) - Andy G Jones

This book is for anyone who is curious about the art of improvisation, and contains all the information and inspiration you need to improvise with confidence and enjoyment.

Beginning right from the basics, this volume shows you how to improvise using a motivated and fun approach. You will learn the rudiments of music, including scale and chord construction, and then go on to discover how to embellish a melody. Patterns from the major and minor scales and modes lay the foundations for more advanced materials to be introduced gradually, getting you comfortable making up your own solos in a variety of styles.

There are hundreds of downloadable demo and backing tracks showing common lines, licks, and progressions that form the basis of many great solos. Improvisation: Every Musician’s Complete Guide spans two volumes — by the time you finish Volume 2, you should be able to improvise over most chord sequences and song forms that you’ll encounter!
