The Jazz Singer's Handbook: Book & Online Audio

Description:

The Jazz Singer's Handbook provides an inspiring and practical window of insight into the world of professional jazz singing. Drawing upon an impressive career as an arranger, teacher, singer, pianist, and clinician, Michele Weir (faculty, UCLA) has distilled her experiences and observations into two handbook sections: the artistry and the mastery of singing jazz. Also included is a jazz chord library, a professional resource guide, a review of music fundamentals, and an index of terms and symbols. The online audio includes sing-along tracks for standard songs, many of which are in two keys for different voice ranges, plus recorded examples of the performance and arranging concepts presented in the text.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jazz is more than just singing it!

M.F. · January 7, 2009

From the very first page of this book, I knew this was what I was looking for. I teach jazz vocal styles at a university. It is sometimes a challenge trying to express to new students the importance of how to be expressive in singing jazz. This book breaks it down in revealing the many expressions, such as interpreting if the lyrcis are informative, poetic, etc. This book is for the serious jazz vocalist that really would like to learn how to sing, how to express the lyrics, how to become one with the song and how to draw an audience into a world of unforgettable and intimate singing.

A vocalist dream. This is an excellent book for singers. It explains all the inflections of the voice as an instrument. It also has many jazz standards that a serious jazz singer should know. A great find, highly recommend it. 👍🏽

New to jazz, I have barely looked at chapter one and already it has improved my singing and made me more confident about tacking a new to me song. Great book for new jazz singers. Hey, more than just jazz! Any kind of singing that allows a little interpretation.

this book is so good. I have been singing for years and the exercises are great, plus she gives a lot of good points. This is not a beginners book, but more for the moderate level student.

Easy to read and understand...all the basics one needs to know. The chapter on writing charts and creating basic arrangements is extremely helpful! I am going to use this as a required text for my beginning vocal jazz students.

思いがけず早く届いて驚きました。

Great

Excellent tool for teaching song interpretation in jazz.

S.M. · November 15, 2014

I'm loving working my way through this book. It's full of useful progressive lessons in not just singing the music and words but transferable skills in song interpretation and getting the true emotion of the song across to an audience, with the addition of a backing track to practice.
