Piano Improvisation Ideas in D Flat (Db)

So now we're going to do is give you some improvisational ideas, and what we're going to do is merge a couple of different lessons here again. If you search Expert Village for D flat blues scale, the blues scale will come up and you'll be able to go over and demonstrate it. I'll show it real quick right now, and I'm going to utilize just that one scale to improvise over this whole tune, and I play the exact same chord change as we've been playing. So if we look at the keyboard, our blues scale starts D flat, E, G flat, G, A flat, and then B. Or if you outline your D flat seventh, you have your minor here. You're going to outline a minor seventh with this crunch in here. So I'm going to go through and utilize that scale as I play the chords. And that's your D flat blues, with a nice little improv in the right hand.
