While this video specifically focuses on the twelve bar blues, the metronome training aspect of it teaches more than simply this basic blues progression. Metronome training is extremely helpful for any musician to keep their own rhythm and avoid problems like rushing the beat. This video focuses on playing in the Key Of G Major, with the aid of a piano roll, at a tempo of 100 beats per minute. This is considered to be a Andante Moderato tempo (from the Italian meaning moderately, in the manner of a march).
