In this collection Stanley Solow presents 12 original jazz solos that are both musically and technically challenging. These outstanding melodies are scored meticulously for fingerstyle or classic guitar performance and provide the discerning guitarist with a colorful range of moods, styles, and tempos. The compositions which are in both notation and tablature work well as learning pieces as well as pieces suitable for recital and contest performance. A brief explanation of tablature as well as terms and symbols that are used in the book are included as well. Companion audio files are available and provide the guitarist with a wonderful resource for learning as well as an enjoyable listening experience. These musically challenging but idiomatic pieces are intended to be performed, in the author's words, with a swinging elegance. Includes access to online audio.
