재즈 작곡가 하면 젤리 롤 모튼, 찰리 파커, 디지 길레스피, 델로니어스 몽크, 찰스 밍구스, 밥 브룩마이어 등의 거장들이 떠오릅니다.
버클리에서 출판한 이 교본은 그런 작곡가들(그리고 많은 다른 작곡가들)이 무엇을 어떻게 하는지에 관한 책입니다.
재즈 작곡은 잘 단련된 예술로 진화했고 엄청난 감정적 깊이와 그 복잡함의 광대한 폭으로 그 결과가 나타납니다.
이 책 Jazz Composition: Theory and Practice (재즈 컴포지션: 이론과 실행)에서는 버클리 음대의 전설적인 교수 Ted Pease가 이렇게 복잡한 재즈 작곡의 과정을 쉽게 설명하면서 그의 25년에 걸친 재즈 작곡 수업의 정수를 담고 있습니다.
온라인으로 제공되는 음원에는 교재에 나온 재즈의 멜로디, 하모니, 리듬 등을 연습할 수 있는 반주 음원과 다양한 작곡 연습 예제들이 포함되어 있어 자신만의 효과적인 재즈 작곡을 시작하는데 활용할 수 있습니다.
