Episode 118: Blues In 4 Keys Part 2

08/10/18 • 12 min

The 10 Minute Jazz Lesson Podcast
This week we continue with our series about playing the blues in multiple keys at once. In this episode we change from learning a simple melody in minor thirds, to actually improvising. I have included a simple way for you to quickly wrap your own ear and the listener's ear to the new key and make it clear what we are doing. By quickly arpeggiating the first chord of the new key, we make it very clear that there is a shift happening. Remember that this material is a little bit on the advanced side of things. If you aren't ready fort this stuff, just file it away as an episode to come back to at some point. Enjoy the episode and soon you will be a monster player in any key! WANT THE PDF THAT GOES ALONG WITH THIS EPISODE?? Head over to our Patreon page and when you donate $3 or more a month you get this PDF and every other. We will also be bringing you many extras exclusively to our patrons including transcriptions and a FREE gift of our latest Ebook, The Diatonic Method. We hope that we bring you value every week here at the 10 Minute Jazz Lesson and we appreciate all of your support! SIGN UP TO BE A PATRON TODAY!
