Críticas:

Santin and Clark are up against stiff opposition from the obvious might of the Jamey Abersold empire, so they are to be congratulated on doing an excellent job . . . This new title brings together essential learning material in a small package . . . Two CDs are included with piano, bass, and drums. These are well up to the Aebersold standard, being well recorded with superb playing. (Andy Tweed Music Teacher Jan 06)

Information regarding the characteristics and an explanation of how to play in each style is profuse and the books has an excellent introduction for those new to improvising . . . Excellent value for money' (Jazzwise online store Summer 05 (Rating - 5 out of 5 stars))
