Beat It! by Darren Fellows is an enjoyable and accessible collection of 15 original jazz pieces aimed at introducing different jazz styles to the pianist. From blues and rock to ballad and swing waltz, these cool and fresh pieces are the perfect introduction into the world of jazz and will leave the pianist hungry for more! Amongst the techniques used within this book are: crushed notes, spread chords and tremolos. These can be found in some of the pieces to give a real jazz flavour and sense of authenticity. Beat It! is a great supplement to the student’s normal practice material and a fantastic addition to the pianist’s repertoire. The pieces are refreshing for the piano tutor to teach, as well as being an enjoyable and fun way to explore jazz for the student!
