Blues Scales: go HIGH before going LOW (advanced)

Piano players usually don't use blues scales to go very far UP the keyboard. But they will often set up a descending run by briefly ASCENDING - either with a lick or part of the blues scale. Here are two ways to do this.

Good pro tip! Use the thumb for the blue 3rd to the c#( key of A) I like A and so do guitar players.

I’ve been developing some techniques love to hear your thoughts, For straight runs instead thinking note by note for going up thumb A C D Eb thumb E I think instead I just first hand position and fast jump to where index finger is in next position. In this case I roll Thumb A C E Eb index to D, smooth everything out immensely, forget the thumb crossing it just falls into place after that. That and playing scale little chords and quick shifting them and rolling them out for full scale runs. Been a gamechanger along with your help.

That’s great. Yeah whatever works for you is best! That’s the way I was taught.

How do I build speed and fluidity like yours? Is it developed over years on the keys, or can I do something to develop it quicker? Brilliant playing... 🙏

Thank you Michael! there are unfortunately no short cuts. Scales and finger exercises every day for many many years. But also if your ear can really hear and appreciate the precision and speed clearly, and really desire it to come from your own hands, then you just keep plugging away until you sound like your ear tells you to. At least that's what my experience was.

What a discovery this channel is. And I stumbled it upon it just by chance. Any chance of major pentatonic if you get the time?

Thank you Jethro! Do a YT search for my name and "lick #7". There are 3 parts to it. I have more in the works but that will get you started ;-)

Arthur! Would love some time keeping thoughts on this shredding. Are you thinking 16th triplets? My thoughts is it’s not just that simple straight groups of 6 because the notes you slide or hammer 2 notes can sometimes account for single note of time. I’m guessing you put it into chunks where you know 1st and last note. Would love to have heard a little more counting in your tutorials. Time is what separates the amateur who learned some flashy licks. You do have great time

Thank you Morgan you are correct. I basically am only conscious of where I start and where I want to end. The endings are usually on a beat 1 or a beat "2 +", meaning the second eighth note of beat 2. There are many other places to end a descending run but you can't go wrong with either of those two places. In my mind all the other notes just happen between the starting place and the ending. As the ending beat approaches I will either slow down or speed up the run to fit the remaining notes. If I don't fit them all in then I will jump from wherever I am to the target note (usually the root of the chord or the major third) when the beat happens.

It's kind of an abstract and fluid process to me... so that's why I don't give prescribed rhythms for shredder runs.

@thearthurmigliazza 6 ай бұрын

But that is a great question! And because you asked it that means you are thinking along the right lines. Sorry I can't give more detailed guidance for it.
