Backing Tracks

Written to order, these aids to practice could help you improve your jazz riffs or oboe concerto and save pounds on the hire of an accompanist. Just state the instrumental piece or chord structure and style you want. Please contact me to discuss your exact requirements.

Sent to you on CD or as a midi file.
