Chord Melody Guitar Music has just announced the arrival of a new collection of chord melody tab books by jazz guitar recording artist Robert Yelin. This 5 volume series of Robert Yelin chord melody tab books was created for guitarists seeking to enlarge their repertoire of solo jazz guitar arrangements and each of the volumes bears a descriptive title such as “Jazz Favorites”, “Jazz Gems”, “Jazz Treasures”, “Jazz Standards”, and “Jazz Classics”. All 5 volumes each feature approximately 35 full length instrumental guitar solos that are suitable for performance at restaurants or clubs.
Robert Yelin arranges every song with his creative multi-chord approach where every melody note is harmonized with a different chord voicing. Each solo guitar arrangement is written out in standard notation as well as tab notation so that there is no confusion about where to play every chord and each volume features well known standards by composers such as Duke Ellington, Richard Rodgers, Michel LeGrande, Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Henry Mancini, Irving Berlin, Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, Jimmy Van Heusen, and Bill Evans.
Peabody Conservatory trained guitarist Steven Herron, who is the president of Chord Melody Guitar Music, commented “This is an exciting event for me personally because I had the pleasure of being invited over to Robert Yelin’s home years ago when he lived in Colorado and hearing him play many of the very same jazz chord melody solos that are in his books! I know first-hand how outstanding his solo guitar arrangements are and anyone who learns some of these solos will soon come to understand why some of Robert’s professional guitarist friends refer to him as a “Guitar Chordiologist”!
Chord Melody Guitar Music has always stocked a large variety of instructional courses for other styles of guitar playing including book/DVDs and book/CDs for jazz, flamenco, blues, classical, country, and rock. The art of playing jazz guitar chord melody solos is an ongoing learning experience for any advancing guitarist that can last a lifetime due to the complexity of having to learn and remember hundreds of different chord formations on the guitar. This 5 volume series by Robert Yelin helps make the learning process easier by presenting each solo guitar arrangement in standard notation for those who can read music as well as tab notation for those who can’t.
