 The
second part to
learning "The Blues" is knowing
the construction and performance of the
"Blues Scale." The formula for
constructing a "Blues Scale" is
shown in the figure above. In your music
workbook, construct a "Blues Scale"
for the following root notes:
This seven note scale is intermixed
with other notes improvised during your solo. On your keyboard, play each scale
5 times from bottom to top and 5 times top to bottom. Using the F "Blues
Scale" that you've constructed in your music workbook, experiment with playing
the notes in this scale in random order and with different rhythms. Do this for
15 minutes.
