There may be a SIMPLER explanation for what you're getting at. I believe what Barry means by "movement" is just dominant to tonic. Diminished to tonic movement is a dominant to tonic movement. That's what Barry means by "there is no such thing as two" (traditional"2's" are called "minor7" voicings BUT every minor 7 is an inverted major 6.....so it technically CAN'T REALLY BE A TWO CHORD). But more importantly, there is a minor 6-chord on the 5th degree of the dominant scale. That minor 6-chord IS A FIVE CHORD - or a "dominant". Remember, when you move C# in C# diminished down a half step you get a C7, right? Well, when you move that same C# up a half step you get Gmin6 - a fifth. Barry's teachings are PRACTICAL applications of classical theory. The classical theory calls this stuff dominant substitutions, secondary dominants, leading tone substitutions and secondary leading tones. As you alluded to, these substitutions can occur MELODICALLY. Not just harmonically. In other words, you can target (or "tonicize") ANY arpeggio with "dominant" or secondary dominant arpeggios; and in this case, leading tone OR secondary leading tone (diminished) arpeggios - and that concept is VERY EXCITING once you realize the universe of possibilities it opens up.
It's totally possible that when Barry said movement, he meant dominant to tonic. But I dont believe that's true. But maybe more importantly, what I'm getting at in this video is DEFINITELY not dominant to tonic resolution. It's much more than that. I try to make that point several times in the video.
Hey one thing to add to this, regarding the full dim having a note flattened to make a Dominant7 chord or raised to create a minor6, THIS HAPPENS WITH THE DIMINISHED SCALE TOO! The minor 6th dim scale is only one note different from the full Diminshed scale by exactly this movement too. Same with the dominant scale. These are all just one note different from the full diminihsed scale.
When Barry says theres no ii, he's not talking about the fact that minor 7 cords are just major 6 chords. He's saying that when you play over a ii-V, you can just lump them together and consider the whole ii-V as just a V. When he thought about what scales to use over a ii-V-I, he would group the ii-V together and just consider it a V leading to a I. So typically if you were playing a ii-V-I in C, you might just think melodically in terms of the C major scale for the whole thing, but if you just play a tonic C major lick over a ii-V the chord tones won't line up. So instead you might think in terms of D dorian, then G mixolydian, then C major, so that you can use licks and movements that line up with the chord tones of each chord. Barry on the other hand would just think in terms of G mixolydian for the whole ii-V, and then C major for the I. The reason he did this is because even if you play G7 chord tones over a D minor (ii) chord, it sounds fine and just flows more naturally into the G7 (V). So basically instead of targeting D minor chord tones over the ii, then G7 chord tones over the V, then C major chord tones on the I, he would simplify it to targeting G7 chord tones over the whole ii-V and then targeting C maj chord tones on the I. That is my understanding of his "no such thing as a ii" idea. He got this idea no doubt by studying what Charlie Parker and Bud Powell did.
@@Ambidextroid technically the dominant-diminished scale (what you call mixolidian) contains a diminished for the two. If you're in the C-scale, there is a Dminor 6 at the fifth of Gdominant-diminished which is the 5th of C. So, it's all functional dominant - tonic harmony.
It appears to me that what you are saying is, as long as you move at the right time, to the ideal sound or an acceptable alternate sound, making the movement at the right time is all that counts. I am noting the fact that both you and Barry Harris seem to have a great understanding of what those pathways are and not simply playing some random gibberish, thrown between some well-placed notes. I found that many years ago, when I was interested in learning all of those pathways, the very thing you are basing why this approach works in musical pieces, also worked against me. It was as if it simply overwhelmed my tonal memory and left me lost in a sea of variations, I could never make up my mind between or struggling to remember the order of, if I was wanting to actually create a finished piece of music. I ended up settling for more of a pattern-based style, but since I like to sing, perhaps that was the smart thing to do, leaving what you are describing to the purer instrumentalists. Thanks for the video though. You describe what I consider a technique or playing style, quite well.
@@christopherparsons3224 hey, thanks so much for the comment. I do think rhythm and timing is a super important aspect of playing a movement well. That's true. Also thanks for saying that about my playing. That's what I strive to do. I'm still working on it though and making progress slowly but surely. I also relate to what you said about too many possibilities. In more ways than one, i can relate to that. As a guitar player especially. One thing I think it's useful to do is just get acquainted with CERTAIN sound that you particularly like. Maybe just a couple movements that you really dig, and get a handle on those first before trying to practice a bunch of others. So for example, piercing might be one, and then maybe using a major key a half step below or above to move somewhere. For example, if I'm playing in the key of C, and there's a 2 chord coming up, I've been really liking the sound of B major scale, to move into that D-7. Since you're a vocalist, maybe it's not so important to know the absolute pitches, but be able to audiate and sing the sounds that create that movement. It's important for instrumentalists to be able to sing and audiate too. Otherwise we run the risk of sounding like gibberish like you said. So thanks for that reminder!
@@TheTonomancer, the one advantage of being able to sing along with what you are playing is that you can carry the important tones with your voice, that maybe you might miss on guitar, or are burdened to play, such as making the root of the chord or scale ring out, while you attempt to embellish. I also find it helpful to have all of the notes you'd like to hit, there to create the harmony you are after, or to help you carry a run vocally, that maybe your voice doesn't have time to accentuate well. I find I struggle from time to time, honing in on a note, most likely to not being relaxed enough or a bit out of breath. Hearing the instrument helps to smooth over the imperfections hamonically, making them sound more like the effect of vibrato or slurs, rather than how an acapella singer might sound, simply being pitchy or off key.

@@TheTonomancerPlease don’t allow the negative comments of others to detract from the conversation that you’re trying to have with the rest of us here. The only rubbish is idiotic, and negative comments like the one above. Please disregard things that interfere with your dialogue. This is really good, and useful information. I for one really appreciate it. Thank you for posting. Sincerely. Rain 🌱🙏🏻
@@rainchaser5389 really appreciate that, rain! I know there are a couple people out there who are unwarrantedly mean spirited, and have an odd resentment toward me for what I'm doing. It's really weird. I can't explain it.
Not saying this guy is one of them. But I know they exist.
Thank you saying that though. I'll try not to pay too much attention to negativity. Peace ✌🏽
@@TheTonomanceryou don’t have to explain yourself to this dense idiot. Your video aren’t clickbait, they have people exploring music in a way that they’ll be expressing themselves more freely. Keep the good work up.
