I’m passionate about the blues—listening to it, playing it, and teaching it. If you share that love for the blues and want to jump right into playing without getting bogged down by theory, this special blues piano session is designed just for you.Picture yourself sitting at the piano or keyboard, effortlessly navigating a 12-bar blues with no rush. In this session tailored for beginners, we’ll explore simple ideas, experiment, and apply them directly to a 12-bar blues form that sounds genuinely good.
What does it take to make the most of this session? The requirements are not demanding.
- Can you play the basic forms of C7, F7, and G7 chords?
- Are you comfortable counting 4 beats per measure?
- Do you have a love for blues piano?
If you answered yes, you’re good to go. Apply these concepts at your own pace, playing as slowly as you prefer to build confidence. Start by infusing those chords with a bluesy feel, add some cool piano licks, and before you know it, you’ll be smoothly playing through a 12-bar blues, delighting your ears and those of anyone nearby. Remember, take it as slow as you like—I recommend it!
