Q: I've always wanted to get good at piano improv but I've been intimidated by the thought of learning a buttload of scales. is there a way to learn to improvise well without having to get comfortable with how scales work first? I've never been good at learning scales because the technical side of music is a mystery to me. is there a way to learn scales through osmosis
A: scales? forget that. just learn what notes you want. and don't blame me if they sound good together
