Widely regarded as one of the finest Baritone Sax players of all time, this edition of the Jazz Play Along series presents 10 songs by Gerry Mulligan, complete with a CD of inspiring accompaniments. Mulligan´s compositions played a vital role in the development of the ´cool´ sound through his work with Miles Davis. Alongside Chet Baker he formed one of the first successful ´pianoless´ quartets, relying instead upon the power of the solo instruments and the musical imagination of his audience.
This set contains a versatile Play-along CD for improvisation, study and performance, and with a choice of backing tracks (A split track with melody, removable bass and pianoparts and a full stereo rhythm section), and easy to read, authentic and accurate lead sheets, players of all instruments will enjoy these terrific pieces.
