12-bar-blues.html
The twelve-bar blues or blues changes is one of the most prominent chord progressions in popular music. The blues progression has a distinctive form in lyrics, phrase, chord structure, and duration. In its basic form, it is predominantly based on the I, IV, and V chords of a key. The blues can be played in any key. (Wikipedia) In this example, we vary the color based on pitch number and the pen width based on beat value.
