An Approach To Comping: The Essentials
AN APPROACH TO COMPING: THE ESSENTIALS by NY pianist Jeb Patton is the most comprehensive book ever publishing on how to accompany jazz soloists with supportive, propulsive 'comping.' Written by the long-time pianist for The Heath Brothers, An Approach to Comping starts with basic comping patterns and then uses transcriptions of the masters Horace Silver, Barry Harris, Bud Powell, etc. to dig deeply into how jazz pianists make the rhythm section cook. Endorsed by Benny Green, Renee Rosnes, Monty Alexander, etc., 272 pages, plus 2 CDs of the author's live group demonstrating the exercises.
