3 PROGRESSIVE DUETS DESIGNED TO DEVELOP

PREFACE
Jazz For Seniors is a progressive continuation of Jazz For Juniors.The same
general rules outlined in the beginning of Jazz For Juniors apply to the duets in this
book. Liberties may be taken with the slurs as they are merely a reminder that this
kind of music must be played very legato. The student will benefit more from these
studies if he strives to give the impression that he is slurring when he is in reality
making use of the legato articulation.
Since the rhythms in these duets are more complicated, I feel it necessary to
add some pointers on how the student should go about mastering the rhythms which
prove difficult for him, For example, in duet #8, measures 3 and 4 from the end can
be better understood if the student clarify in his mind where the beat falls in these
neasures and penciling it in such as in the example shown below.
I es ee
Practice slowly at first and then play up to tempo.
In double time figures it will help to analyze difficult rhythms by converting
them into 8/8 time, giving one beat to each eighth note.
Duet #5, measures 1 and 2.
Meme ee eee el
After practicing in 8/8 time, play as written (Four beats to the measures).
Playing a difficult figure without ties first and then as written will also help.
[Duet #15, measures 1 and 2.
