This book is a concise, comprehensive, and organized 10-step guide to understanding any lead sheet, an essential skill in learning to improvise on any tune with confidence and fluency.

The book presents the necessary theory, the 10 basic steps, and a comprehensive analysis of ten standard tunes, each accompanied by a detailed explanation that is framed around the 10-step approach.

This book is a valuable and useful resource for everyone, whether you are a beginning, an intermediate, or an advanced student, including performers, teachers, and academics!

The book does presume some knowledge and understanding of the rudiments of music, as well as perhaps some experience in dealing with charts and lead sheets. Nevertheless, no matter what level you are at, you will learn how to simplify your approach to improvisation in a systematic and orderly way, which will enable you to improvise better...and with more self-confidence!...
