Written by a jazz teacher for jazz teachers, The Real Jazz Pedagogy Book is based on the premise that successful jazz teachers must be constantly working four main areas 1) the wind instrumentsincluding tone production, intonation, and section playing skills 2) playing styles correctlysuch as rhythmic and time feel approach, articulation approach, and phrasing 3) the rhythm sectionplaying the instruments, time feel and concept, coordination of comping, harmonic voicings, drum fills and setups, stylistic differences and 4) the soloistsdeveloping improvisational skills (both right brain and left brain), jazz theory, the ballad soloist, and the vocal soloist. Ray Smith, who has taught and directed jazz ensembles, including the acclaimed Brigham Young University group, Synthesis, and given private lessons for over forty years, also discusses the details of running school programs. Smiths YouTube channel complements The Real Jazz Pedagogy Book.
