This unique set of 17 warm-up pieces for the young jazz ensemble covers the essential rhythmic and harmonic elements found in two styles of jazz: even eighth note (such as Latin rock) and swing. After the initial two legato warm-ups, the music is divided into four sections: Even eighth-note examples in B flat, swing examples in B flat, even eighth-note examples in F, and swing examples in F. Each exercise builds on the previous example so younger jazz students will be introduced to essential rhythms and phrases in a well-sequenced method. The rhythm section parts are carefully crafted to allow maximum flexibility for each player. All the warm-ups are designed to work at a variety of tempos and with various dynamic shadings, so each one can be used in a multitude of ways.
