Slow Minor Blues Vol. 2 - Sound Like A Blues Piano Pro

Develop a blues piano bassline and chord approach with a G minor root, double chromatic movement, octave shifts, and improvisation over sheet music and tracks.

Add tensions to blues piano chords by using diverse voicings—seventh, third, ninth, eleven, and cluster tones, with options for left- and right-hand voicings in blues and jazz styles.

Master improvised minor blues lines by using G minor pentatonic and blues scales, natural and harmonic minor variants, with hands-together practice and precise fingering.

Learn 16th note improvisation within a slow blues, using two G minor pentatonic licks, and master phrasing through sequencing, rests, and starting on different beats for varied flavor.

Explore scale chords built from notes of the scale, using dorian and natural minor ideas to shape blues progressions and improvise with neighbor chords and simple voicings.

Explore blues notes and bluesy tones in minor and dominant contexts, focusing on flatted third and flatted or sharp 11th, and the flatted fifth to shape improvisation through blue zones.

Learn crushed notes and blues improvisation with mini licks, double stops, and chromatic ideas, applying them over G minor pentatonic and C minor blues in a band setting.

Learn to execute trills on blues piano by rocking the wrist, using pedal and finger substitutions, exploring fifth-to-third and octave options, while avoiding arm tension and listening to your body.

Learn to execute turns in blues using G blues scale with target note like C; explore turns in G minor pentatonic and C minor pentatonic, and experiment with tri-tone substitutions.

Explore rhythmic cell improvisation by building a rhythmic motif within a measure and applying notes from the G minor pentatonic scale.

Apply the rhythmic cell to comping by coordinating left- and right-hand parts, using accents and rhythm to support soloing, including comping behind solos and varying beat placement.

Explore rhythmic cell exercises built on consistent sixteenth notes, splitting patterns between left-hand G minor chords and right-hand G minor pentatonic scale to develop finger independence and improvisation.
