Blues Piano 2

Tim Richards introduces the harmonic, rhythmic and melodic aspects of the Blues. Here are over 60 pieces, including well -known favourites such as "Ain’t No Sunshine", "Bag’s Groove", "Mary Anne” and "Pine Top’s Boogie Woogie”, together with a number of compositions by the author designed to teach:
• Authentic patterns and bass lines for the left hand
• Professional chord voicings, blues scales, licks and riffs
• Exercises in coordination for both hands
• Suggestions for further listening
Each chapter is arranged in progressive order of difficulty, with a few more demanding pieces towards the end. Improvisation plays an important part throughout the book, with exercises and guidance. This volume includes an index for pieces in both volumes.
