      Great for intermediate players looking to improve

      I started playing from this book about a year ago as an intermediate level player striving to get to the late intermediate/early advanced level for jazz and found this book extremely useful. It was just beyond my skill level at first, but really helped me improve. I agree with some...

      Oscar Peterson / Duke Ellington

      Very good value. Highly recommended. The level of difficulty of the transcriptions varies - some manageable for an intermediate player, and some challenging.

      PetersonPlaysEllington (authentic transcriptions)

      Easier Oscar

      These transcriptions were easy to digest considering the fact that it is Oscar Peterson. He didn't go crazy in the solos so they are easier to play but still sound very good and will increase your improvisational vocab significantly. Oscar Peterson is a beast.

      Playable Peterson for novices

      I was pleased to see the inclusion of Band Call, C-Jam Blues and Night Train from the widely acclaimed Night Train album. The remaining titles consist of piano transcriptions of the Peterson-Brown-Thigpen trio's steroephonic remakes of the early Ellington song book album originally recorded by Peterson-Brown-Ellis. Peterson has gone on...
