Anyone here play jazz on the piano? I'm mainly interested in big band and combos, so mostly comping and soloing with the support of a rhythm section. I've taken classical lessons for 9 years. I've also played drums in big bands and jazz combos so stylistically, I know jazz very well.
Anyone into jazz/piano know a good place to start? I've started learning different scales, but there are so many variations and it's really hard to remember everything. Should I start with some voicings? What books should I start out with? I heard the Mantooth ones were good.
