I made this video with the goal of providing real value and content for the viewer. Several features make the video stand out.
Modern Blues I for Keyboard shows very clear shots of the keys that are being played. The camera adjusts the focus for the note range from scene to scene, resulting in the clearest shots possible. Unused fingers are moved out of the line-of-sight so that they do not cover up the view of the keyboard. In addition, I verbally state the name of the note I'm playing and state its functionality within the chord. I went to extremes to make absolutely sure that you obtain a clear description of the notes being played. You can learn to play everything in the video because you can see what notes are played.
This video that provides a detailed description of the actual harmonic tools that blues/rock/jazz musicians use, including theory and examples, so that you can adapt the concepts for your own personal style, instead of merely copying licks without understanding why they work. The video is a full two hours long. I made this video the way that I would have liked to have seen it, when I was first learning to play. All of these features add up to real value for the viewer. I offer a full money back guarantee.
