I designed the video to raise your skill level as fast as possible. You will learn key concepts that get you playing great faster than you thought possible. |
Modern Blues II 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 rhythmic
tools that blues/rock/jazz musicians use, 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 almost 3 hours long. I made this video the way
that I would have liked to have seen it, when I was first learning to play.
