Blues and Rock Improvising Made Easy explodes the myth that one has to be an experienced player to improvise music. Improvisation is part technique and part psychology, both parts eminently teachable. But it's never been taught to beginning players until now. This is the first book ever written that teaches players of any level, and of any instrument, to create their own personal "improv" style. Through a progressive series of exercises appropriate for any instrument, author David Harp enables musicians of all levels to improvise without learning standard music notation.
