Following the great critical success of Jazz Scores and Analysis, Vol. 1, Richard Lawn has created another masterpiece: Jazz Scores and Analysis, Vol. 2: Strings and Other Things. As the title suggests, Vol. 2 includes:

• Annotated full scores
• Analysis of each score

• 9x12, 438 pages!
These scores all feature great string writing, along with more normal jazz orchestral instrumentation. Among the many highlights of this book is a previously-unknown and available score of Oliver Nelson's Piece for Studio Orchestra and Soloist, and an Eddie Sauter composition from Stan Getz's classic Focus album.
