A second collection of great original jazz pieces written in an easy-going, lighthearted style. Easy-to-learn solos in 5-finger positions that shift up and back within a basic blues pattern. Uses eighth notes, swing eighths, simple and 6/8 meters. Short, authentically-styled easy jazz for the late-elementary student. A real favorite for all ages. 11 Solos: Dixieland Jam * Hand-to-Hand Combat * Major Song * Minor Song * Primetime Blues * A Rather Racous Rock * The Rock Exchange * Six Ate Beets * Soft Shoe Shuffle * Sweet Swing * Why Not?
