An acclaimed jazz guitarist comes to town

Musicians from around the world can now experience playing along in a live performance with world class musicians.

Internationally acclaimed jazz guitarist Vinny Valentino is redefining what play along jazz (music minus one) is.

“I have students all over the world and they all have one thing in common... They lack the experience of playing on stage in a performance environment. I decided to create a catalog of music that would best serve that need and make it available for download worldwide." --Vinny Valentino

Steve Smith said “I not only use the tracks to practice; I use the tracks in my clinics. It's a great experience for all jazz musicians."

The new PlayAlongJazz.com web site is a “must see" for musicians of all skill levels. It gives the practicing musician the opportunity for an “on stage" experience with some of today's finest jazz musicians. These musicians have recorded various jazz standards in a live environment so that you can then play along as if you are part of the band: choose the song variation that excludes your instrument, download the file and add your musical voice to theirs. There is no other place like it where musicians can enjoy such an experience and grow as players alongside professionals.

New play along songs are added regularly and there is a request link where you can ask PlayAlongJazz.com to add other songs to the site. There is also a different, free play along song each month so you can sample the music.

All this and more for only $.99 per song:



  • Professional jazz musicians playing with you during your sessions.

  • Learn to interact, to improvise, and to add your distinct musical voice to the whole.

  • Quick access to song files for all instruments as well as vocals.

  • Or download all the individual tracks and mix your own song and play with only the tracks you need.

  • Buy only the jazz standards you want for only $.99 each; you no longer have to pay $20 for midi-generated CD's just to have the few songs you want.

  • A different, free play along song each month for you to sample.

  • Use the quick request link, to ask PlayAlongJazz for other songs you would like to experience. Prepare yourself for the real stage with PlayAlongJazz.com
