The Pizza Blues Method is the first definitive resource of its kind that UNIQUELY explores and illustrates deeply the concept that each note over a chord suggests a different feeling.
The innovative method starts at the heart of the matter, by building a firm foundation and familiarity with the CORE Blues sounds, then guides you on a journey through the spicier flavours of the b3rd, b7th, and b5, and climaxes with the exotic and complex Jazzy b9, #5 and Major 7th.
Immersing yourself in the specially recorded play alongs and meticulously written solos you will effortlessly train your ears and fingers to be intimately aquainted with ‘secret’ blues notes the masters use to embue their solos with such colour and emotion whilst at the same time strengthening your technique.

Your input is very much appreciated. Share it with your friends so they can enjoy it too!
Very useful method to approach the blues
The resources to digest musically were more than I expected and offered in bass clef - Thank You!
GREAT study Nick.
Enjoying the pizza blues a lot. Great intro, clear, easy to follow and builds nicely. I play trumpet and can manage the range but beginners might struggle with some of the higher notes. Would be great to have an online player that loops, changes key and tempo.
The pizza method is a very easy and efficient way for children creating routine in improvising.
Super étude pour mes étudiants et pour moi-même !
Just what I need to start my progress
I started in january With pentatonic.. Then minor licks, soul Scales and now pizza blues. Learned much more with this stuff than years of books. You just need to practice and... practice and your ears will connect with your finger and saxophone! Good job Nick! Waiting for some Major 7 licks. David
Hi Davide! Thanks for the review! Best , Jazzduets.
Nick does it again with a terse breakdown of the various scale degrees, making an analogy to various spices of emotions. Excellent breakdown of the Blues Scale and its chromatic Scale Degrees .It comes with plenty of Standard Notation, Tabs, MP3s and Mp4s. Highly Recommended! Kudos to you Nick.
Hi Orest! Thanks for the review! Best , Jazzduets
I've just started practicing, but it looks like this is great idea!
It’s pretty good but would like more etudes of jazz blues lines. Although I get this. For understanding how notes sound against chords I will keep working on it
There is something reassuring about learning from a horn player these great ideas and lines the Guitar Tabs included and Guitar pro 7 file are a fantastic addition for us guitarists to get the lines and concepts under our fingers easily as they are clearly writing and the tab is optimized for logical play ability on guitar
This is a great lesson and easy to follow. It has given me better insight to learning improvisation. Thanks!!! Mike
Vraiment une excellente méthode pour apprendre à improviser sur une grille de blues ! En plus mon professeur de saxo l'utilise aussi... Très cordialement,Gérard.
Trovo questo metodo fantastico, utile sia agli insegnanti ed alunni, e per chi vuol avvicinarsi o conoscere questo fantastico mondo del Jazz. Sono un insegnante lo suonerò insieme ai miei ragazzi.
fun to practice, numerous quotes, very efficient.
