Klassik Meets Jazz 1 (book/Audio Online)

Level: easy - intermediate
20 famous classical pieces, original version + jazzy arrangement von Uwe Korn

This volume contains a wide selection of famous musical themes from Bach to Carl Orff.  Some of them were originally written for the piano; most have had their scores arranged to make them easy to play on the piano. Each piece is followed with a jazz interpretation, which can either be played alone or alongside the 'original' version.

It is difficult to convey a jazz interpretation through musical notation alone, so audio files for download are included - not to demonstrate the only possible interpretation, but to offer ideas and suggestions.
