Jerry Bergonzi: Inside Improvisation 7 - Hexatonics Book & CD
Hexatonics, is the seventh volume of Jerry Bergonzi's series, Inside Improvisation. Hexatonic scales are six note scales. This book presents a practical method for the construction of hexatonic scales that are useful for both the improviser and composer. Many modern piano players use hexatonic voicings by stacking the triads to create a particular harmony. We improvise in the sound of the voicing and using hexatonic voicings and lines can lend a very contemporary sound.

For all instruments.
