INTRODUCTION

The solos in this book represent a cross section of the music of Charlie Parker.In presenting these solos, we hope to bring musicians closer to the true genius of "Bird".

These solos are in C concert key, treble clef. The book was originally published inEb key and this new concert version should allow many more people to explore the won­derfu.1world of music that Charlie Parker gave us.

Most Jazz musicians have learned to play by listening to records and imitatingthe notes, articulations, vibrato, etc. of the masters. We encourage you to play thesewith the actual recording. listen to the record first, then play through the solo slowly,gradually increasing the speed until you are at the recorded tempo Bird played it. Idon't feel the idea is to try to play the solos exactly as Bird did, but rather to findphrases, articulations, scoops, turns, etc. that you feel you would like to incorporateinto your own playing. By being able to see and play the actual notes, it should helpspeed up the learning process. Many players play like Bird but retain their ownpersonality.

Practice with a metronome. Each day try to increase the tempo a little, all thewhile retaining the inflections, articulations, etc. that you would use at the slowertempo. Try practicing some of these solos with the Aebersold Play A Long records. Takea slow blues solo in F and play it with one of the records in the series that has a slowF blues, then move to a record that has a faster F blues. It is fun to work towards play­ing the solos with Bird along with the actual Parker recorded version.

Blues make up the largest portion df this book. Rhythm changes come next.Some compositions have the two versions recorded by Parker in separate solos. Whena measure occurs without a chord symbol above it, the chord is the same as the meas­ure preceeding it.

Most players like to analyze solos in order to find out what the musician is do­ing. Our ears cannot always HEARwhat is happening so we slow the music down.transcribe it, analyze it, practice the licks, patterns and phrases we like best, andend up playing them in our own way on our instruments. We have put chord symbolsover most all bars to enable you to analyze the notes in relation to the chord. Remem­ber, each chord symbol represents a series of tones called a scale. Older musiciansused to improvise mainly on chord tones; Charlie Parker was one of the first to broadenthat to include scales and substitute scales. For information on scale substitution referto the Scale Syllabus chart. '" Bird loved to use the b9 over the Dom. 7th chord/scale.The Blues scale and its accompanying licks was an important part of his music, evenwhen playing songs other than bluesl When you find licks or patterns that you enjoy,practice them in several keys so the melodic phrase becomes a part of you. It shouldbecome automatic in order to really be useable in a playing situation.

Only a minimum of articulations have been put in this book. We feel that jazz,being an aural art form, is often times best imitated by listening over and over, andthen playing the notes the way you hear it on the record. This might seem like the longway ta do it, but experience has proven reliable. After all, who would object to listeninganyway? listening is what music is all about.

The records from which these solos are taken are listed at the top of each solopage. They are contained in approximately eight records (some are two record sets)and most all are still available. The two record sets are a barg,ain)

We hope you have as much enjoyment with this book as we have hadputting it together.

SCALE SYLLABUS

Each chord symbol (C7. C-, Co, etc.) represents a series of tones which t~e improvisor can use whenImprovising. These series of tones have traditionally been caned scales . The scales listed here are the one~ I mostoften hear musicians play . All examples are in the key of C so you can compare the scale ccnstrucuon and

Similarities, .

This SCALE SYLLABUS is intended to give the improvisor a variety of scale choices which can be used overany chord-major, minor, dominant 7th, half diminished and diminished . Western music, especially jazz and pop,uses major. dominant 7th and dorian minor scales and chords more th~n any other. ~cales an~ chords used lessoften are the half diminished and diminished . If we agree on these ftve scale families as beang th~ most pre­dominant, then we can set them up 8S categories and list substitute scales beneath each heading .

Each category begins with the scale most closely resembling .the ch~rd symbol giv~n to the left. The scales arearranged according to the degree of dissonance they produce an re/atl.on to the baSICchord ~oun~ , Scales n~arthe top of each category will sound mild or consonant and scare choices further down the lIst .wllI bec~me in­

creasingly tense or dissonant. Each player is urged to start with th~ scales at the ~op and wl~h practice andexperimentation gradually work his way down the list to the more dissonant or tension prodUCing scales. Youshould work with a new scale sound on your instrument until your ears and fingers become ~omfortable with .11the tones in the scale . Music is made of tension and release. Scale tones produce tension or they producerelaxation. The improvisors ability to control the amount and frequency of tension and release will in largemeasure determine whether he is successful in communicating to the listener . Remember-you , the player are

also a listener!

Any of the various practice proceedures and patterns listed in Volumes 1, 2 or 3 can be appUed to the learningnd assimilation of any of the scale choices listed in this SCALE SYLLABUS . Needless to say. any scale you want

to learn should be transposed and practiced in all twelve keys , The column on whole and half step constructionthat I have listed for each scale on the syllabus should prove helpful when transposing 8 scale to any of the t.vetve

•keys.
