They are printed in approximate order of difficulty, the easier pieces first, the harder pieces later. Study Notes have been added after each piece, giving the kind of help that a teacher might give in a lesson. In some cases, two versions of a solo have been printed, showing different ways of playing it. Small exercises have been added to help with certain problems.

Learn to improvise freely over any chord progression! The Fourth Note principle is a truly remarkable method for improvising in jazz and other genres, combining ear training, theory and technique to enable students to play with unrestricted creativity. In this book/CD pack, master guitarist Tony DeCaprio shows how to incorporate this technique using focus notes to anchor your playing within a chord progression through comprehensive, step-by-step instruction with examples for practical application of every new concept. The accompanying CD includes 99 full-demo tracks. A totally unique and revolutionary concept for teaching improvisation. There is nothing even remotely similar on the market. The approach is refreshing and brilliant. I highly recommend this book to both students and teachers. - Jimmy Bruno
