Best way to start jazz piano - complete jazz blues lesson
Starting to learn jazz piano can be very overwhelming.
🎹 As a classically trained pianist I started out by buying a bunch of books. This was the wrong approach to learn jazz vocabulary and improvising.
I believe the best way to start is to learn the 12 bar blues. You can start out very simple and add more and more as you get comfortable.
