    The truth is I may have understood 5% of the theory on this seven series video. But I just feel it completely changed my way of looking at music. Truly amazing stuff, thanks a lot for sharing this knowledge.

    It seems that Barry, along with his fellow pianists, has ushered in the piano’s Age of the Moving Continuo, breathing life into the static (though beloved) accompaniments we have enjoyed since the Baroque Era. His Albertis don’t sit in one place, they glide in passing diminished flights and swells, imbuing every passage with a quality that I can only call magic.

    Hey, Kay.. Last week I did a video with kinemaster editor for Android. It was on the dominant half whole diminished scale . I harmonized it in sevenths.. It sounded like the cousin of Barry's diminished sixths. At the end I was struggling with something to put in the description. I googled dom diminished scale.. Wow.. I did not know how extensively this scale was used in jazz,z. Herbie Hancock, and host of who's who..one site had
    Mp3s of sax players , pianist ,etc using it. It seem like such a simple scale, but it is powerful as the alt scale.

    What does Barry mean by teaching things wrong? I'd love to understand his perspective, it must be incredible.

    • @loocheenah
      @loocheenah 6 років тому +6

      He teaches what chords are the same and can be interchanged, like in the end he shows that a minor 6th chord a fifth away from the dominant is the same. So when people practice for example Vm6 to I7 thinking they're practicing a V-I change, it's really not, because those two chords are based on the same diminished chord and are the same, and one can be played instead or over another.
      Actually he at first plays Bbm6 over G7 which is a bit more complex. Bbm6 is an m6 chord a fifth away from Eb7 which is a triton away from G7. So Bbm6 is a minor chord to substitute for Eb dominant. So there's also a triton substitution. Anyway, the thing is they're based on the same Fdim7 chord.

    • @fernandoconcepcion7080
      @fernandoconcepcion7080 6 років тому +4

      He also is referring to the his teaching of the diminished scale. It's an essential scale in jazz but its taugh as half step-whole step or whole step-half step. Which is wrong. It comes from three diminishes. When you learn it like this it makes more sense how and when you can use the scale

    • @iwanabana
      @iwanabana 4 роки тому +7

      Oh my friend you'll be surprised to find the outrageous harmonic stuff you can find. Mozart's D major quintet brings you from D major, A major, through F major to F# minor in a matter of a couple lines. Brahms' 2nd Intermezzo of the op 117 brings you to E DOUBLE FLAT MAJOR at one point. Not to mention all the incredible harmonic feats Bach accomplishes with his ridiculous knowledge of scales and counterpoint: the D minor Chaconne has a moment when Bb, G#, F and D makes you think that it's a Bb dominant BUT IT ISNT! Or in his Passions where the same chorale tune will be harmonized radically differently because of the different shades of emotion of the text.
      Then you have the sonic pictures of Debussy and Ravel which are in part influenced by jazz harmonies and other world music. Stravinsky has his funky modal, polytonal soundworld. Prokofiev has his legere, otherworldly chords juxtaposed with brutal hammerings in the 3rd concerto. Shostakovich and his eerie, PTSD minimalism. Each has something so special and unique to offer. Lemme know if you want a playlist!
