In this month\'s edition we are going to analyze a very nice solo played by the great Arturo Sandoval. It\'s from famous standard called There Will Never Be Another You. I was looking for some versions of this standard and I came across this one. Really very great version with beautiful solos.

I am very sorry for the delay again, I have already explained reason in the previous issue. That\'s why I decided to make a contest in this issue (More on page 18). In this issue I am going to analyse for you the solo played by Mr. Eyþór Gunnarsson - the keyboard player of the most favourite band of mine. I\'ve been listening to Mezzoforte for many years and I really want to share one of my favourite solos played by Mr. Gunnarsson. This synth lead solo is from the tune called Take Off from Mezzoforte\'s seventh album, \'Rising\'.

At first I would like to wish you all Marry Christmas! I am really sorry for the delay as I had really tuff times in the school. In Decembers issue we are going to do some work with a solo played by one of my top favourite saxophone players. It is a solo from very famous Christmas song called Santa Claus is coming to town played by one and only Mr. Ed Calle. I really like his fluent playing. It sounds like he knows how his solo will end before he even starts playing it.

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse very great solo played by my favourite saxophone player of all time. Michael Brecker has been a big influence on me and this solo is the first one I\'ve ever transcribed. I am sure there are many musicians that consider Mike as the most influential tenor saxophonist since John Coltrane.

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse a solo played by Mr. Bill Sharpe. This is the first solo I\'ve ever transcribed. It\'s from very famous Shakatak\'s song called Night Birds. All of you who know Shakatak probably know this song very well. It\'s really great one as many others played by Shakatak. The bad thing about the solo is that it\'s played to high for horn players. But it\'s still useful to pick some great licks and transpose them octave down (and also to other 11 keys!) if needed.

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse a solo played by wonderful jazz pianist Mr. Keith Jarrett. His very unique style of playing forced me to do some work with one of his great solos. Here are first 32 bars (+2 before and 1 after the solo) of his solo from very famous jazz standard Bye Bye Blackbird. There are really just few notes in this solo but very well played and placed.

In this month\'s edition we are going to analyse a solo sung by the great Mr Al Jarreau. I chose this one because it is completely different from any instrumental jazz solos I\'ve ever transcribed.

Many young people (including myself - the author) who like jazz music, would like to learn to improvise, are missing some of the main points when studying improvisation. You can find many advices on the internet and they are all great for help. As many of you could notice, many times we meet with the most important process - transcribing. Speak Jazz magazine takes you across the most underestimated parts of the transcribing. The analysis, variations and importing. In each publication you'll find one transcription of a solo played by some great jazz musicians and will do a detailed work out with the few bars of that unique material.
