Recreating 3 popular Jazz standards, Luca Mantovanelli brings a whirlwind of creative melodic and rhythmic repertoire for you to extract and implement into your own Jazz standard solos! Whether you are a Jazz purist or an all-out Rocker looking for something new and exciting mastering the tracks and licks in this package will give you fresh new vocabulary that will take your Jazz playing to new heights!

Including plenty of II-V-I changes and extended harmonic movements (the bread and butter of all classic Jazz tracks) these captivating and inspiring solos hold the key to all the essential Jazz techniques you will need to navigate these three Jazz standard tracks. We've got creative use of the Dorian, Mixolydian, Tritone, Harmonic Minor and Lydian Dominant scales amongst many others!

On the technique front Luca uses plenty of legato lines, economy picking, hybrid picking, slides, trills and a few select bends (which are quite a rare thing in Jazz!) to keep you busy.

We've also got plenty of classic Jazz melodic techniques such as melodic ornamentation, super-imposed arpeggios, symmetrical patterns in tritones and heavy use of target chord tones to cling to those rich and complex chord changes!

If all of this scares you then fear not, taking the tracks slow and analysing the TAB can work as a perfect introduction to the Jazz genre as the 3 tracks provide a nice broad overview of some of the typical Jazz scenarios that you might come across. And you always have the option of using the TAB/notation to just learn some awesome solos without having to understand any of the ideas behind them!

As ever, we have included everything you need to practise and perfect the material in this package. There are video and audio tracks for you to watch/listen and study, accurately transcribed TAB/notation for you to analyse and master as well as backing tracks for you to practise every lick to, and jam out your own solos! We've even included some text notes to help you really get these parts down!
