Blues Scale Workout for Trumpet | Exercise of the Week #36

Download the PDF of “Blues Scale Workout

By request, from YouTube commenter @Bernduf, this week’s Exercise of the Week is a basic Blues Scale workout. Often regarded as a starter scale for those of us exploring jazz improvisation for the first time, it’s actually incredibly useful for improvisors of all levels – it can sound convincing in almost any context!

We want to hear you playing this exercise! Video yourself playing a key or two that you find challenging and share on Facebook or Instagram, tagging @AirflowMusicNYC. We’ll repost our favourites!

Check back every Monday for a new Exercise of the Week! #EOTW #GoPractice

If you have questions or comments about this video, we want to hear them! If you have a request for an area of technique you’d like an EOTW to address, please let us know – your suggestion could be the topic of a future video!
