Keyboard Improvisation Method Monday, August 29, 2016

JP50recommended by Barb M., Keyboard and Folk Music Specialist

It isn’t always an easy matter to teach improvisation to a student, or to learn improvisation on your own. “Creative Chords” is a keyboard improvisation method by Bradley Sowash that will clear up the mysteries. There is a Book 1, and a Book 2 just came off the press.  Internet access to the “Interactive Practice Studio” is included with each book you buy (see inside the front cover for directions). You can “jam” along with the recording online! Only basic reading skills are needed to get you started. You can learn how to play “by ear,” improvise in different styles and learn how to make up your own variations and  add embellishments. Give Book 1 a chance, and you will go on to Book 2 so you can learn more ways to have fun improvising!
