Hi everybody,

I 'm a jazz pianist beginner without any teacher around, and I'm looking for a good book or video tutorials about jazz theory and basics.

However, it has now become a popular taste for all kind of listeners. Big Band, a popular musical group, is widely known for its jazz music.

My videosheetmusic videos on YouTube may help a bit. They are actually for flute, but you can play along with piano. They only have the lead line, so on piano you have to improvise the rest, but as a way of getting the feel for playing some jazz stuff, they may be helpful or fun.

One good book that helped me was called playing popular piano i got it out of the library and kept it for about 9 months lol there are some good piano jazz tutorials on youtube ( powerful piano lessons for instance) these are pretty good at getting right to the heart of the matter with improvisation and jazz chord voicings ,open chords and dischords ,used in jazz..
