Anatomy of a Melody: The Interactive Guide to Jazz Improvisation unlocks the mysteries of jazz improvisation - one of music's greatest enigmas. Musicians are guided step-by-step through engaging, interactive material, developing an understanding of (and an ear for) the essential details needed to learn the language of jazz.

Throughout, Anatomy of a Melody consistently supports musicians in their quest to crack the code of jazz improvisation and create informed, highly personal musical statements.
