The forerunner to the awarded-winning Exploring Jazz Piano books,
Improvising Blues Piano examines the harmonic, rhythmic and melodic
aspects of the blues, assuming a basic competence of around grade 3.All
styles are covered from the 1920s to the present, from the early boogie
pioneers via swing, gospel, jump-jive, New Orleans, Chicago and Kansas
City schools, to the more sophisticated jazz and funky blues of the
current scene. Over 60 pieces, including many original compositions by
the author, together with new arrangements of well-known standarts such
as 'Ain't No Sunshine', 'Blueberry Hill', 'Blue Monk', 'Got My Mojo
workin', 'Honky Tonk Train Blues', 'How Long Blues', 'Just aCloser Walk
with Thee', 'Pine Top's Boogie Woogie', 'St Louis Blues' etc.? Authentic
left-hand patterns and bass lines? Professional chord voicings, blues
scales, licks and riffs? Co-ordination exercises for both hands?
Suggested listeningEach chapter is graded within itself, providing some
challenging pieces towards the end. Improvising is encouraged at all
stages, with assignments giving ideas and guidance.The accompanying CD
contains all the pieces, including some play-along tracks, performed by
Tim Richards.A very useful and comprehensive survey of different blues
styles. Tim's clear demonstrations on the accompanying CD make this the
essential book for all aspiring blues pianists (Jools Holland)This book
leaves any possible competition standing at the post. (Brian Priestley,
Jazzwise Magazine)I highly recommend the book. It's the best I've seen
yet... Helpful features include a grat Cd by the London-based Richards,
who is a top-notch performer, recording artist and educator. It's almost
like having your own personal instructor. (Blues Review, USA)The
presentation is immaculate, the method is logical and friendly. This
book feels good... (MOJO)A brilliant new publication from Schott. Each
chapter extends the player's harmonic knowledge and gives clear
instructions how to progress... You learn not just how to play the blues
but also its history and major exponents.
