Learning Blues Improvisation
A great way to learn how to be a good improviser is to start by using the blues. The blues is an amazing chord sequence found in thousands of songs across various genres, including:
- Pop
- Jazz
- Rock
- Blues itself
There are so many versions of this that you will have heard already.
The 12-Bar Blues Format
I'm going to show you the format for a blues. The chord sequence consists of 12 bars. There are only three chords within this sequence. As you develop more skills, we'll start using more interesting chords, but for now, we will use triads. These may not sound particularly bluesy, but they will help you understand the harmony you're looking for.
Chords in the Key of F
- Chord 1: F
- Chord 4: Bb
- Chord 5: C
The form of the blues is shaped around these three chords in slightly different ways. Here's how the sequence typically goes:
- Start with F for four bars
- Move to the fourth chord (Bb)
- Back to F
- Up to the fifth chord (C)
- Back to the fourth chord (Bb)
- Return to the first chord (F)
Improvisation Tips
Now, this may not sound particularly bluesy or like a great template for improvising right now, but as soon as you get these chord shapes under your fingers, you'll find that you can start to improvise with the right hand.
To add interest, you'll develop an exciting sound over this form by using the blues scale.
