Jazz Piano Improvisation for the Right Hand. We walk through 10 easy steps with exercises and practical Jazz tips. And we learn how to play a cool Jazz solo!!! As we walk through the 10 steps we try out the Jazz techniques in practice by playing along to a nice swing jazz drum&bass backing track. You can try out the Jazz exercises and play along with the backing track in the last section of the video.

All my videos are free and for everybody - money or no money.
