    Great video! I found some interesting melodies and passages by combining those three scales and I'm working toward building the diatonic chords so that I can work in and around the keys. Mostly, I've done something like this with out the knowledge. In improvisation I'm going by chance and feel.

    To those for whom this is way "beyond their skill level" (like me), learning this through licks while making a note of their mode/scale and what notes you've added DOES WORK. I unknowingly got into Dorian by just copying some licks from Zeppelin's No Quarter and even Since I've Been Loving You (yes, that's a blues song with a surprising amount of Dorian in the solos).

    Hello Rick, congrats on the book, just purchased it. A quick suggestion guys who bought or will buy it. Could you do a video or update the pdf with some notes on how to practice all this stuff to get them into one's playing.
    For instance all those Drop chords could be played in the circle of fifths all over the fretboard. Or practiced over tracks? Standards? Should they all be memorized? What would you suggest to guitar teachers and students?
    (It would also inspire more people to buy it as well I assume)

    Rick, I love your channel. Any advice for someone like me, that can play, but is heading down the theory rabbit hole? I took lessons from Scott Devine, but unless you start already knowing jazz theory, his method is not much help. I struggle with coming across a new term and having to research more terms to understand the new one. My big problem is not knowing what I don't know!

    Hello Rick! I hope you can reply to my question as I rarely see you replying to comments.
    I am a cinematic and trailer composer. I mainly use major, natural minor and major modes but I am feeling that I am somewhat limited by only these guys. So, I started to study harmonic and melodic minor and their modes. Now, when I put a harmonic minor and its modes in practice, I don't feel any cinematic in them. You mentioned that they can be used in film scoring but I can't feel them. Yes, they sound more jazzy than film scoring. How can I best utilize them in my tracks? ... Please note that I don't do an actual film scoring but I create epic cinematic and trailer soundtracks that are submitted to music libraries to be then used in films, TV, or video games. In other words, I am not doing a John Williams or Alan Silvestri type of scoring.

      Come back when YOU have grey hair. And share all your knowledge then. And when you lament that the ones who were around for all this music shared their knowledge, but now are gone. It's not like when the guys from the 30s and 40s and 50s were gone. Music as you know it (and take for granted) had not happened yet. It happened in the 60s 70s and even 80s. Before you were born.

  • @user-pp3bf3he1c
    @user-pp3bf3he1c 5 років тому

    It's easier to learn harmonic/melodic minor with major simultaniously.
    Harmonic: you take you natural major/minor and then you want to push an augmented second between 6th and 7th degrees. The only ways to do it is to shift 7th degree up in minor (now we have harmonic minor) or to shift 6th degree down in major (now we have harmonic major).
    Ok. Melodic. So now we want to get rid of that augmented second between 6th and 7th but in that way so we don't return to natural scales. The only options is to shift 6th degree up in harmonic minor, and to shift 7th degree down in major (so we get melodic major and minor).
    Actually, harmonic scales are ex-natural scales where 7th degree stuck close to 8th note (1st degree next octave), and 6th degree stuck close to 5th. They differs in 3rd degree only, which defines whether it's a major or minor.
    Melodic scales are ex-natural scales where you take halves of them and change places. Thus melodic major has first half of natural major and second half of natural minor. Vice versa for melodic minor (it starts as a natural minor, ends like a natural major)
    Quite easy.

    Just thought,
    If you teach a minor scale (any of 3) 'based on the major' (like, you've got a flat here, and here.. ), it's ok if you talk about C major and minor (cause they can literally visualize it too: you go flat - you go black (meaning the keys). But if someone will try to learn, say, A minor harmonic and melodic, that might be a little confusing, cause really you have sharp 7 (harmonic) and sharp 6 and 7 (melodic) (and also from the visual standpoint)..

  • @kassemir

    I don't know about that leftie thing. I think it's more to do with what you're used to. If you often play looking in a mirror, well, then it's great. If not, probably gonna be a bit harder, though not impossible :)
    As a right handed person, I always wondered if lefties had an easier time playing piano. Guess you're always gonna have a weak hand with that instrument. Though having rhythm in the left, it might make some styles easier.

    7:25 that's always been so backwards to me to call it a 6-7-1 progression with the minor chord being called the 1 instead of the 6 chord... if I'm in A minor for instance, and I hit an F then G then back to the Am, it's hard for me to not think I'm just in the key of C (which you are) and that I'm just hitting the 4 chord and 5 chord, then resolving back to the relative minor of C (the key you're in)... Am.
    I don't know man. Because I know the I-ii-iii-IV-V-vi so well and what roles they play and how they interact with eachother... it's hard to start from scratch and call an Am the 1 chord... it's the 6 chord!!! And you can start a song with it... but it's the 6 chord for me... So you're telling me the 2 chord is now a diminished chord!!??? I'm not learning a new numbering system rick! LOL

    • @enggopah
      @enggopah 2 роки тому

      It's just a minor key. The relative minor and major keys having the same notes. It really doesn't make much sense to say you're in C major when everything in the song revolves around an A minor tonality.

    • @urwholefamilydied
      @urwholefamilydied 2 роки тому

      @@enggopah Yes it does, because you have plenty of songs that start with say, Am to Dm to G (or whatever) and then the chorus is C, B7, Am, G7. The song is in C. But I don't even differentiate between C and Am... they're the same key. So ya, I would say it's in C for simplicity, but yeah, it's in C/Am. What if a song started in C and then went in to this long outro of Am to G to Em7 whatever, and that was the most prominent part of the song... would you say, it was in C, and then for the end it switched to Am???? No, it's the same key.
