Blues Piano Lessons - Chapter 15 Overview

In this edition of the online piano lessons course titled "Blues for Piano and Keyboards", we're finally breaking down the blues piano introduction that is posted at the beginning of every lesson!

Covering many new advanced keyboard blues concepts as well as 18 brand new blues piano riffs, this lesson is a wealth of information for those who really want to dig in!

Using the blues introduction posted at the beginning of many of our lesson videos as a vehicle for study, this lesson goes through each riff in ultra slow motion, up-close video. You'll see each finger placement and chord voicing in detail.

In addition to learning the specific notes and fingerings of each riff, we'll also explore the music theory behind them. You'll dig into such concepts as:

"Anchor Points":
Learning how to lock down the rhythms of very difficult asymmetric phrases.

"Parallel" vs. "Contrary" harmony:
This little used-secret can bring a brand new sound to your playing!

"Advanced chord extensions and voicings"

"An expansion of concepts presented in earlier chapters"

After going through the previous 14 chapters of this course, you'll be ready for all of the riffs and concepts presented in this advanced lesson - Enjoy!
