Author: Noah Baerman
Format: Book & CD

Learn fun blues & soul solos to supplement your piano lessons! Blues & Soul Masters for Piano is a wonderful supplement to the student-level piano repertoire. It introduces you to colourful, fun-to-play pieces in a variety of blues and soul styles. Take a guided tour through the important styles of the blues and soul masters. You'll learn how they get their unique sound---while progressively arranged, original compositions give you a chance to try out these styles on your own. Accompanying every piece are listening suggestions, a biography of the artist who inspired it, and specially tailored preparatory exercises.
Blues & Soul Masters for Piano is recommended for students age 12 and older, but younger musicians can enjoy playing the pieces under the guidance of a teacher. The included CD demonstrates all the examples and allows you to play along (with solo keyboard or full band).
Each solo piano piece in the Masters for Piano series correlates to pages in Alfred's Complete Methods---such as Beginning, Intermediate, and Mastering Blues Keyboard---as well as Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course and Alfred's Basic Adult Piano All-in-One Course.
