Jeff Gardner, an excellent pianist, composer, and teacher, author of many fine books on music, has given us a timely guide to harmony and melody in popular music. Full of chord voicings and melodic lines on the most important progressions, this book serves as a technical course of study for pianists and piano students, as well as a practical guide to the inter-relation of harmony and melody for all instrumentalists. A spectacular work!

Volumes I and II of Popular Music Harmony offer piano students and any instrumentalist interested in the subject a series of essential exercises based on the spinal cord of the tonal system: transpositions of cycles, cadences, and harmonic sequences.

The two volumes of Jeff's Harmony books bring a huge variety of voicings applicable both harmonically and melodically. It is a work that offers the musician of the most varied levels a valuable source for consultation and exploration in the wonderful homophonic world. Thank you for this rich gift, dear Jeff!

This book will bring a better understanding of intelligent walking bass lines. It's all here - cycles, chromatic approach tones, triads and seventh chords, major and minor arpeggios - everything you need to quickly develop your understanding of the language of Jazz for accompanying and soloing. I’m going to use it myself!
Sizão Machado

A clear and concise book for jazz bass that would be of great help to any student bassist.
Ron McClure

Congratulations on the bass book - it is a great resource for bass players to learn about constructing interesting lines.

Jeff Gardner, a pianist who knows the subject of Blues inside and out, has managed to organize in less than 100 pages a style so vast that it overflows its own boundaries to blend with other cultures and styles in today’s musical world. His explanations are clear and concise, serving as a basis for teachers to guide their pupils through the subject, or, for those students with a basic knowledge of music, to use the book themselves to dig deep into the Blues, whether they be pianists, string players, wind players, or any other instrumentalist. As a pianist and a great admirer and fan of this vast musical style, I can say that I am fascinated by the book and will have a lot to with “Blues Workshop”. Congratulations to Jeff Gardner for having dedicated part of his time to this task, which, as I know well, is difficult, but of vast importance to music instruction.

"Blues Workshop is a book which puts within our reach all of the subtleties of the Blues. Jeff Gardner, with the clarity of his explanations, well-conceived musical examples, and unsurpassed musicianship, was the right person to give us the necessary tools for understanding this style that is at once simple and complex. Thank you, Jeff! The time has finally arrived for us Brazilians to have access to such important information.”
