Blues practice number three. 2 2
Traditional Jazz Blues progression. 3 3
This practice is based around the traditional Jazz Blues progression. 4 4
Remember you played it in the key of F. 5 5
[MUSIC] 6 6
So the practice here is to change that to every key, and 7 7
when you do that you'll learn a lot. 8 8
You can either try and play this similar riff again, same right hand patterns. 9 9
Or just improvise over the same chord changes in the new key with 10 10
the blues scale. 11 11
Let's look at it in C instead of F. 12 12
First let's go through the chords. 13 13
Your C7. 14 14
[MUSIC] 15 15
Root and 7. 16 16
F7, middle with the 7. 17 17
[MUSIC]. 18 18
Back to C7. 19 19
[MUSIC] 20 20
And, again, F7 middle. 21 21
[MUSIC] 22 22
Your F sharp diminished. 23 23
It's an F sharp half diminished 7 you're gonna play, but that shape will cover it. 24 24
So you can start that there, back to C7. 25 25
And your A7 is just going to be the root and the seventh again. 26 26
And your D minor 7. 27 27
D minor 7 sounds okay as a four note chord. 28 28
Because of where it is in the piano. 29 29
So if you went down to G and played a four note chord would sound far too muddy. 30 30
So again that will be root and 7. 31 31
[MUSIC] 32 32
Back to C7. 33 33
So let's try a similar pattern, same riffs over the new chords. 34 34
What you're trying to do is get something similar, and you're trying to pick out 35 35
the tune that you just played, put it into, transpose it to these new chords, 36 36
doesn't have to be completely accurate, just something similar, 37 37
and that will get your ears used to picking out a tune and changing the key. 38 38
So obviously it ends. 39 39
We started in F. 40 40
[MUSIC] 41 41
So with C. 42 42
[MUSIC] 43 43
And we're moving up to the diminished, it was just straightforward chord tones. 44 44
[MUSIC] 45 45
Remember that? [MUSIC] 46 46
Then we went [SOUND] so. 47 47
[MUSIC] 48 48
Okay, you're just trying to remember. 49 49
