Why use Jamie Aebersold?

Designed for all instruments, these Jamie Aebersold selections feature instructional books with accompanying CDs. The play-a-longs make learning and practicing your favorite jazz standards easier and more fun than ever! For over 40 years, Jamie Aebersold has been making materials that address the main components of jazz, allowing people to listen along with the music. This approach teaches sight reading, while emphasizing the listening component that is so critical to jazz. The combined with Aebersold’s reputation of delivering the greatest selections at the best quality makes Aebersold #1 in jazz play-a-longs. They are a must for jazz musicians, and as soon as you try them out, you’ll know why.

Aebersold’s Play-A-Long Series

Most of the volumes in Aebersold’s “Play-A-Long” series feature a selection of 10-12 jazz standards, though some focus on scales, standardized chord progressions (like the blues), or original compositions by Aebersold’s collaborators. The books contain charts for the tunes in question, transposed as necessary for instruments in C, B-flat, E-flat, and bass clef. The recordings normally feature a professional rhythm section (typically piano, bass, and drums, occasionally including guitar) performing an improvised accompaniment (or “comping”) to each song. Melody instruments like saxophone and trumpet are omitted, enabling a jazz student to practice playing the song’s melody, and improvising over the song’s chord changes, with accompaniment. (Related examples of this format include the “Music Minus One” series and the popular pastime of karaoke.) The piano and bass tracks are typically panned to opposite channels, so that a pianist or bassist can easily omit the recorded piano or bass part by muting the appropriate channel.
