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
-
For example:
"So, what we've done there is taken the left hand playing the root notes of the scale that we're using of the blues."
-
In the right hand, we're using the blues scale to improvise and create different ways of playing the scale.
