About this collection
Fred Hamilton Sheet Music
Fred Hamilton's jazz ensemble sheet music collection centers on Lou Fischer's Rhythm Section Workshop series, a comprehensive resource for jazz directors and rhythm section players. These books and accompanying CDs cover piano, drumset, bass guitar, and guitar, with supplemental melody parts for multiple clefs. Additional works from creators like Steve Houghton and Shelly Berg round out the jazz education offerings.
Who it's for
- Jazz directors developing rhythm section fundamentals with their ensembles
- Private instructors teaching piano, drums, bass, or guitar to jazz students
- Rhythm section players seeking focused technical and ensemble training
What's inside
- Lou Fischer's Rhythm Section Workshop series: teacher manual, instrumental books, and CDs
- Separate instructional books for piano, drumset, bass guitar, and guitar
- Supplemental melody book with parts in C, B-flat, E-flat, and bass clef
- DVD and audio CD components included with most titles
Things to consider
Start with the Teacher's Training Kit to understand the curriculum structure and methodology, then order the instrumental books your players need. The supplemental melody book works with all the rhythm section books, so it's a smart addition if you're building a complete set. Most titles pair a physical book with an audio CD, which lets students hear proper style and tempo while they practice.
