Easy pieces in popular styles such as jazz, blues, rock 'n' roll and reggae. This collection contains all the pieces formerly contained in "Microjazz for Flute" and "Microjazz 2 for Flute". Microjazz is the world famous series of pieces based on classical technique yet using popular contemporary styles such as jazz, blues, rock 'n' roll and funk. Microjazz helps you develop musicianship and technique through the familiar sounds and styles of popular music. It is this unique combination of modern genres with traditional technique that has made Microjazz an international success with teachers and players, and one of the most widely used educational series ever published. New technology brings Microjazz alive and adds an exciting interactive dimension to practice and performance. Based on classical technique, Microjazz is great way to introduce rhythm and develop co-ordination skills whilst being fun for all ages and standards. A great motivator for the reluctant student, the pieces are equally effective on acoustic or electronic instruments.

Press Reviews

"...stimulating blend of contemporary popular genres and classical values...the ideal basis for progressive learning and teaching."
Schools Music Association, Autumn 1999

"...ideal for the beginner to intermediate student interested in jazz and popular music."
International Journal of Music Education, University of New South Wales 1993

"...fairly simple pieces in a variety of jazz styles, well written and attractive, with true equality of importance for each player."
Music Teacher, no date shown


These collections are based on the already-existing microjazz concept of graded pieces in popular styles, which includes many volumes for all woodwind and some brass instruments......

..... Pupils familiar with the other microjazz collections will undoubtedly enjoy these volumes and will enjoy being able to see the progress in their own performance skills.

Overall this is a pleasing set which would be useful for a good number of pupils of various standards and which will present suitable challenges while remaining an enjoyable tool for study.
