French term or phrase: ce jeu dans la musique moderne
En amont nous irons affiner le travail des gammes et de l'improvisation par l'étude précise et condensé des doigtés utilisable pour ce jeu dans la musique moderne.
So far I have, "Beforehand, we will work on scales and improvisation with concentrated study on fingering techniques". I left out "pour ce jeu dans la musique moderne". Any comments? Thanks!

to such playing in modern music
Explanation:
"Ce jeu" refers to the antecedent in this sentence (how's that for detective work!):
"Nous irons chercher à l'intérieur des accords le développement du jeu par l'utilisation du système modal."
This means that the author's going to use chords in order to teach the modal system (dorian, phrygian, etc.) and then teach how to apply such playing to modern music:
"In preparation, we will work on scales and improvisation through a precise, concentrated study of the fingering applicable to such playing in modern music."

Great detective work, William! I thought we needed a little more text to go by, as this is just an excerpt. I think your answer is excellent. I'm just thinking of possibly changing "to such playing" to "to this style of playing", or "to this playing style". Any comments? Wayne gave me this suggestion. Thanks to both of you for your help! And thanks to all who gave responses!
