Composed by Tracy Silverman. Strings, Technique, Jazz, Violin Solos, Strings Slal. Jazz. Book and online audio. Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music #31066MEB. Published by Mel Bay Publications - Digital Sheet Music (M0.31066MEB).
ISBN 9781513480169. 8.75 x 11.75 inches.
Former first violinist with the groundbreaking Turtle Island String Quartet, Tracy Silverman has created a new pathway to improvisational mastery with Modal Jazz Etudes for Violin and Viola: The Frame Method. Guitarists and pianists use simple shapes and grids to outline chords, and Silverman has adapted this idea to the 4, 5, and 6-string violin and viola.This visual representation creates a paradigm shift for many string players, who are rarely taught to think of their fingerboard in this way. To make this innovation clear, Silverman uses fingerboard charts with color to help the player visualize chords as hand positions. These frames reveal patterns and shapes that unlock the secrets of jazz harmony for string players.The first part of the book is devoted to the modes found within the major scale, jazz riffs in all keys, and the idea of mirror-image runsa shortcut to increasing your speed based on symmetrical finger patterns clearly visible in the fingerboard charts. The second part tackles more challenging harmony, such as 4ths, diminished scales, whole tone scales, and augmented harmony, including the concept of side slipping, which is so integral to modern jazz improvisation and uniquely enabled by the frame approach.Online audio tracks are included for ease of learning.
