Boogie, blues, ragtime, swing and other jazz styles are irresistible to most pianists, but not always accessible to piano students. Robert Vandall has made these styles easier for students to learn and guarantees the student will learn a different aspect of jazz piano playing with each appealing solo.  Theory concepts such as jazz scales, harmonies, rhythms and forms are also introduced throughout the five book series, enabling students to not only learn jazz techniques but also the structure behind them.
