    I'm a guitarist and this really opened up a whole new way of looking at diminished scales. We tend to be "patterny" as guitarists. I never "saw" those 4 major and minor triads.

    Adam thank you so much! This is a revelation. You decrypted the functional beauty of the diminished scale for me. What a gem this video is! What a treasure trove your channel is. Many thanks and love to you guys :)

    I love the idea of learning scales in their context of resolving to something, instead of just scales by themselves.

  • @JoePariseauMusic

    I absolutely LOVE when you break the fourth wall!
    You already know what the student is thinking or rather assuming you should do to apply this scale!

    For someone like me who no longer plays jazz in a live setting but continues to listen and learn, this has been MIND BLOWING!!!🤯🤯 This is truly a jazz improv/theory gem! I’m getting out my 🎺 and getting back in the game with your channel for real!

    This is awesome. Guitarist here, this channel has offered me consistent new ways to hear and visualize chord patterns options and voice leading movement. Thanks so much.

    Definite missing gem with this one. Thankful for social content platforms and amazing teachers like this to help fast track debunking unsolved music mysteries. For veteran cats like me these fresh simple perspectives glue together years of fragmented and missing puzzle pieces.
    Thank you sir.

    As a guitarist, I had this scale under my fingers, but the way I used it sounded so contrived and obvious, like the whole tone scale. Thanks for opening these doors.

    This is by far the best vid/tutorial I've seen on the diminished scales. You opened up the secret of applying them effectively. Much appreciated. Thank you.

    I love how easily you break down the content vs. the function. Showing practical examples of how soloists think is crucial for student development especially if they have an ear for sound already

    Years ago, I discovered these dominant 4-noters to remember diminished scales…. Very helpful, Adam! Also loving the major minor triads.

  • @PianoWithJonny

  • @gtrpaulj
    @gtrpaulj Рік тому +6

    Along with so many others, I want to thank you for this incredible information. I have never really understood how to use the diminished scale tones outside of a diminished (or 7b9) chord and what you teach here is so cool! Thank you, Adam!

  • @jerryballard371
    @jerryballard371 2 роки тому +2

    As loath as I am to give up the secrets of Chromatic button accordion (you know, the non-piano right-hand that looks like a cash register), the brilliant thing about the layout is that those rows of buttons are the 3 diminished 7th arpeggios.
    So long story short, every one of these triad pairs, for all keys, can be done on CBA accordion using 4 triad shapes, simply sliding up and down the keyboard.
    The instrument almost seems to be created with this (not to mention most of Barry Harris’s teachings) in mind.
    And this video was a life saver for me because I was still restricting myself to the diminished scales, which , while still easy on CBA, aren’t nearly as musical as these.
    THANK YOU!

  • @ArthurRosch

    Aside from the great lesson, the "writing", i.e. the light comic tone, is beautiful. Now I gotta practice this stuff! Keep my home town safe for jazz, guys.

    Your channel is amazing. I love the way that you layout concepts that I’ve “known” about in refreshing(and familiar sounding) ways. I’ve been watching for about a week now, and I’ve encouraged my own students to explore it more deeply.
    Thank you for introducing me to Barry Harris. Somehow, I went to Jazz school and never heard his name. I’ve been delving into the video archives.
    Keep groovin’ ✌️

    Within 90 seconds, you both brought up & wonderfully explored a concept that so many people don't get - there's not two diminished scales, there's just one symmetrical-shape scale that adds context to the music that's there (technically 2 exist in 12TET A440 temperament, but the shape is always the same)
    People think of the dim scale like it's dissonant but it's more of a game-changer - nice major stuff becomes nightmare music, whereas the right dominant chord becomes heaven with I
    Every other scale becomes wildly different things when split into modes - do that with the dim scale and you just get the dim scale (same with whole tone btw)
