Joe Diorio was a legendary jazz guitarist and composer as well as a respected music educator. In this book he combined his many skills to present innovative "intervallic designs" for the guitar. Written in standard notation and tab, these linear, often 12-tone flavored studies reflect Diorio's jazz roots and compositional mastery. Due to the harmonic ambiguity of these lines, the author recommends an experimental approach in applying these examples in various melodic and harmonic settings. The companion online audio download features Joe Diorio's performance of each of the 96 studies in the book.
