Jamey Aebersold- St. Louis Blues: Traditional Dixieland Classics
Instructional book with play-a-long CD contains 16 toe-tappin' Dixieland classics including "When the Saints Go Marching In," "The Darktown Strutters Ball," "The Sheik of Araby," "Tiger Rag," "Royal Garden Blues" and others. Many of these songs have forms that are unusual to modern jazz players - today, tunes are usually 12 bar blues and 32 bar song froms. Older pieces like "Tiger Rag" are structured in a different way, with multiple themes and forms that are similiar to marches or minuets - the early music also had a simpler harmonic language.
