The Aspiring Keyboardist..Jazz and Beyond by Pat Coil
With 3 decades of experience in the studio, on stage, and additionally as an educator – Pat was compelled to write this book to provide you - the talented and passionate college musician – as well as you – the motivated high school student – with creative theory and advice, a solid musical foundation, as well as the necessary tools to elevate your skills and help you to reach the next level in your musical journey. This is a comprehensive guide for the aspiring keyboardist in today’s music business. The first in a series, this book is a great resource for advancing your improvisational skills and your abilities as an accompanist. “ It would have been so helpful to me, as a young keyboardist in pursuit of a career in music, to have access to a book designed with the serious musician in mind. This is for those who intend to make music a lifetime endeavor, for the musician who wants to reach as far as possible, and who is willing to put in the necessary time to make that happen. That is why I am writing this book series – to fill that void.” -Pat
