[ eBook ] 8 Blues Tunes For Solo Piano | eBook (Medium/Advanced - level)
This eBook contains 8 arrangements written out for you in different styles within the blues genre including New Orleans Groove, Swing, Gospel and Boogie Woogie. Designed for the more advanced pianist sixth grade and up.
This eBook is designed to introduce and help you get into the blues genre and to improve your blues knowledge if you already know a little. There are 8 pieces written out for you in different styles within the blues genre of varying degrees of difficulty starting around 3rd grade level and upwards.
Each song is written in a different style within the blues genre such as New Orleans Groove, Swing, Gospel or Boogie Woogie.
I picked 8 styles of blues that I particularly like from amongst the hundreds of other styles out there. Each song includes a written a melody, 2 improvisations and then the melody is repeated again with an ending.
It can be a little bit difficult to figure out jazz and blues ‘licks’ (ideas) when you’re first starting out and this eBook will give you a ‘heads-up’ within the blues genre. The 8 blues arrangements use repeatable patterns - ‘licks’ / ‘chops’ / ‘riffs’ - all written out for you which you can use again and re-use in other tunes that you play! I wish I’d had these when I was at the beginning of my own blues journey.
You will also receive an mp3 for each arrangement to make the learning process a little easier, and the tempos and fingering are simply a guide which you can adapt in your own way.
