Dear friends,

today I’m very excited (and honestly a little emotional) to finally share something with you.
Almost 30 years ago, when I was a young jazz guitarist, I bought a book that completely changed the way I looked at harmony and guitar playing:

“Joe Pass Guitar Style.”

At that time, I understood only parts of it.
But something about this book stayed with me all these years.
And now – after teaching, playing, studying, experimenting, and coming back to these ideas again and again – everything suddenly started to fall into place.

Over the last months I have been working very intensively on a new project:

✨ Joe Pass – Guitar Style | Practice Studies (Pages 1–7) ✨

This is not just another worksheet. It is the result of almost 30 years of living with this music.
In this workbook (45 pages!) I collected:

-the ideas that helped me really understand Joe Pass’ harmony

-practical reharmonization concepts

-voice leading tricks that suddenly make sense

-and exercises I actually use with my own students

The goal is simple:
👉 to help you make the most out of Joe Pass’ harmonic language
👉 and to really APPLY it on the guitar.

This project means a lot to me.
It grew out of a journey that began 30 years ago with one book and continues to open new perspectives and ideas.

If you love Joe Pass, reharmonization, and deep harmony work, I think you will really enjoy this.

Thank you so much for being part of this journey and for all your support over the years 💛
I truly couldn’t have done this without you.

With love and lots of music,
Tina 🎸

P.S. If you have any questions about the material or how to use it in your practice, just write me – I’m very happy to help 😊

P.P.S. this book works without the Joe Pass Guitar Style book too...but i think it´s the most fun to scan the original and work through my practice studies at the same time
