Concepts for Jazz, Rock Piano with Donald Fagen

Donald Fagen analyses three Steely Dan hits ( Chain Lightning, Peg, Josie ) and two solo works from his Grammynominated album Kamakiriad ( On The Dunes, Teahouse On The Tracks ). These songs use familiar blues and R B structures, and Donald explains how, by altering the bass line and chordal qualities, he transformed them into sophisticated jazzrock compositions. You ll trace the development of increasingly complex pieces as Donald and Warren Bernhardt reveal each tune s singular structure, harmonic and rhythmic characteristic, intro ideas and other devices. enjoy:) Team TDV
