Christmas Jazz, Rags & Blues-Book 4
Bought these for my students to get away from the standard classical style of playing. The 8 songs in this book have different style rhythms from blues,Jazz, and Ragtime written to Christmas music. This book 4 has some very good syncopated rhythms, plus I have the students also add some...

Mediocre
This is for the pianist with no jazz exposure, not for the jazz aficionado. The arrangements fall short of any true jazz seasonings but are fine for the young pianist looking for a change from classical arrangements.
