Adding Accompaniment to the Blues Scale
So now we've learned how to play the blues scale in more interesting ways. Let's add our own accompaniment.
Left Hand Chords
- Like before, we had the left hand playing the chords.
- The next step is to improvise, using the left hand as an accompaniment.
Improvisation Technique
- We can take the left hand to play the root notes of the blues scale.
- In the right hand, we're using the blues scale to improvise and create unique ways of playing the scale.
