It really does not matter which instrument you play or what grade of playing you are at. Just learn the piano blues and you will get better as a pianist. As a person who plays the saxophone a lot and writes quite a bit of music, I realized that playing the piano could be of quite a great help like for musical ideas, helping write arrangements for other instruments and it is also quite a stress buster. And not to forget, you could also accompany performers when you get a chance.
Once you have learned the piano blues, you have kind of also learnt rock and roll. That is because rock and roll music was developed out of the blues music. And this makes these two styles harmonically very close.
Another advantage with blues piano is that you pick up a few easy patterns on both hands and as you keep practicing you keep developing these patterns in slightly more complicated patterns and even before you can realize you end playing some really good boogie woogie. This style has straight descended from the blues and helps a pianist flaunt a few of his ort her skills. This is a really impressive and improvised style of blues just with a little extra speed.
Watching the finger movements of a few pianist friends of mine, standing next to them and at times watching their fingers from above is what broke the ice for me. I took i8t slow from there breaking down each part got me to realize how easy it was. Speed comes with practice. It is usually said that kids pick up faster than adults, that’s true but the strong desire to learn can teach anyone anything.
So basically learning to platy the blues on the piano not only helps you with your basic techniques on the piano but also helps you as a spring board to play other styles such as gospel and jazz. Even if you only know to play the blues think about all the fun you can have with jam sessions with your friends. You know what; blues is the international language of music. So what are you waiting for, go ahead and play some blues my friend.
