The scope of the genres and styles in Jazz Piano Studies 2 is broader compared to that of Jazz Piano Studies 1, since it also covers the various offshoots of contemporary popular music related only marginally to jazz.  The selection of twenty studies is aimed at amateur piano players who are interested in jazz and popular music, and serves, in particular, for the improvement of technique and style. The studies also equip pianists with the necessary grounding for their own improvisation, although they can also be used by professional piano players.
