Spin Doctor Full Member Registered: 09/25/04 Posts: 262 Loc: Maryland, USA	You can try here for starters. There isn't much here about inversions and rootless voicings, but it's a beginning. There is a lot of other good info there also.

jazzyprof 2000 Post Club Member Registered: 11/30/04 Posts: 2374 Loc: Sydney, Australia	The book "Jazz Keyboard Harmony" by Phil DeGreg is a wonderful resource. It's a true workbook that takes you from 2-note shell voicings to big, full, six-voice monsters. Plus it comes with a play-along CD. You can order it from Aebersold Jazz. _________________________ "Playing the piano is my greatest joy...period."......JP

SteveY 1000 Post Club Member Registered: 11/06/01 Posts: 1820 Loc: NJ	Just checked out the PW thing for the first. Pretty cool. But YES, it contains a fair amount of errors. example: check out C11. There is no "B" in a C11. Actually, there's no A# either, but we can look the other way on that one. _________________________ PianoWorld disclaimer: musician, producer, arranger, author, clinician, consultant, PS2 aficionado, secret agent...
