description The main aim of this thesis is to study Blues improvisation and their understanding about Blues music itself. The paperwork includes affectiveness of study in music, Pentatonic scale, Blues scale, networking, technical approach on handling music instruments, experience on music and style of improvisations. This study is performed to measure the usage of scales, modes and techniques during Blues improvisations in solo performances among modern instruments students in Universiti Teknologi Mara. To achieve this, data has been collected by research from journal from other researchers, books, online journal and peer's self-thoughts.
