Summary of This Method
Designed for pianists wishing to structure their progression, this method explores the fundamentals of blues through content directly applicable to the keyboard. Tim Richards details the essential mechanisms of the blues language: rhythmic setup, melodic construction, as well as the typical harmonic colors that make an accompaniment sound authentic. The goal is clear: to provide you with solid reference points to play, understand, and then create your own musical expression.
The collection is based on a varied repertoire of more than 30 pieces, including well-known standards such as "Blueberry Hill," "C-Jam Blues," "Back in the Alley," and "See See Rider." These titles are complemented by pedagogical compositions designed to isolate a specific difficulty and turn it into an automatic skill: credible left-hand bass lines, effective chord progressions, modern "piano" voicings, blues scales, as well as a bank of licks and riffs to enrich your choruses.
Improvisation holds a central place throughout the book. Each chapter offers practice tracks to develop your vocabulary, improve two-hand coordination, and gain fluidity, with listening suggestions to better assimilate the style. The accompanying CD, recorded by the author, allows you to check the musical output of the pieces and practice in context thanks to a play-along track.
