Jazz Performer: Jazz Performer -- Solo Inspirations: Standards for Advanced Solo Piano (Paperback)

Paul Johnston's arrangements of these wonderful standards incorporate stylistic elements of some of the great pianists of the last 60 years, including Bud Powell, Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett and others.

Each arrangement includes a written-out solo section, so that even non-jazz pianists will feel as if they're improvising.
