Basic Scales of Piano Improvisation in F

Video Transcript

So today we're going to learn how to make some simple chords for our left hand. We're not going to go over melody lines or sit reading through melodies. We're going to go over that in another segment. But today we're just going to focus on mainly making some nice simple chords to play, so we can go open up a fake book tune, that's in the key of F, and just start playing through the chord changes like it's a breeze. And we're going to do this first we're going to utilize one major scale. We're going to learn the F major scale, and there's four basic chords that we'll get out of that major scale. And then we're going to use the same scale and we'll alter just one or two notes in the scale, and we'll get four more chords. So we'll get eight simple easy chords that are all relative to F major. And we're going to run through a simple tune, that uses the first four chords we use. And then we're going to run through a bee bop blues, which uses our more advanced chords. So we're going from a nice, easy, simple, sound to a more advance piece, with some more advanced changes, but will transfer from side to the other like a breeze. And it's just nice simple ideas easy to get under your finger, and you'll see as we go through their tune in F major.
