Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Jonathan Townes has found a way to make studying a joy. This book has charm, surprise, and challenge built into every bar. I have a hard time putting it away because I want so much to know what the next etude is like!" -Alex Lacamoire (Composer, Arranger, and Music Director for Hamilton, In… The Heights)The journey to complete fretboard fluency shouldn't feel like a mystery. This book is a sovereign, emotionally grounded method-a direct, step-by-step guide designed to lead bassists out of first position and into complete mastery of the neck.82 Etudes for Four & Five String Bass is more than a book of exercises; it's a map of where the music goes. It began as a gift to a student and evolved into a method that inscribes decades of teaching experience into a clear, musically truthful process.Designed for the Real World, Not the TextbookMost reading methods simplify music, but in doing so, they fail to initiate students into the complexity of actual performance scores. These etudes were composed as realized improvisations, maintaining the organic rhythmic and melodic integrity of genuine music. By refusing to simplify, you're prepared to read any score without overwhelm.What You Will MasterHolistic Musicianship: Choose your focus-sight-reading, ear training, rhythm, or improvisation. The variety of styles-from classical and baroque to hard rock, reggae, EDM, fusion, and jazz-means these exercises always feel like real music.Positional Fluency: Etudes progress from open position to the twelfth fret, challenging you to master the instrument's full range.Deep Theory: Navigate odd time signatures and train your ear to "hear" in Locrian.Professional Benchmark: Students who complete the etudes can read repertoire like Bach's Prelude (BWV 1007) with ease.4- and 5-String Mastery: Two distinct parts build melodic awareness on both instruments.A Complete System for RhythmIf the rhythmic demands feel challenging, that's intentional. The companion Rhythmic Counting Workbook offers practice with every rhythmic value explored-quarter notes to 16ths, including triplets. Use it alongside the etudes to master rhythm before placing fingers on the fretboard.The Power of the RealisationsThe written page is just the map. To connect theory to sound, 57 etudes grew into full compositions. These are presented as songs across four volumes: 57 Realisations From 82 Etudes for Four & Five String Bass. Use the audio to follow the score, find your place, and understand how written music becomes sound.This method is clear, complete, and emotionally grounded in the lifelong pursuit of musical sovereignty. Master bass sight-reading & fluency! 82 Etudes guide you from open to 12th fret on 4 & 5 string bass. Real-world complexity, odd meters, and genre variety (jazz, rock, classical). Endorsed by Alex Lacamoire (Hamilton). This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
