Doing this on guitar I noticed that it’s a great way to get modal sounds without sounding like you’re just blowing through scales. It almost forces you to be melodic.
That’s a great benefit; once we get fluid with a new mode or shape we tend to run them linearly since it’s easier that way - horns and keys and so on have different challenges! I think we have it easier with arpeggio inversions since it’s so visual 😅
Alto saxophone notes sound a minor sixth below where they’re written on the staff (you’d have to play the A on the second space of the staff on alto to play a concert middle C). It’s called an e flat alto sax because when you’re playing a C on it, it sounds as a concert e flat, as opposed to C instruments like the flute, that play in concert pitch. Transposition charts for all instruments are online.
He told you. F triad and G triad have six notes from the C major scale, and can go with a C vamp, but also any mode in the C scale: D dorian, E phrygian, G mixolydian, etc.
Hope you enjoyed it!

Not sure if you are familiar with the CAGED for guitar, but I’ve been working on it and this works opens up a ton of doors! 🤘
I’ll have to look into it!
@@DeMariusJacksonIt’s basically a way to map out the triads on guitar.
Tank you ! Hello from France 🙏
Hey!! Thanks for watching!
is this concert f maj and g maj?
can anyone please explain how to transpose the mentioned notes to a concert pitch?
go down a step

How do you know what triads go with what vamps?

@@sheilamacdougal4874 thanks for the breakdown
deep knowledge of scales
It’s funny how if you don’t syncopate these lines it turns into jazz yodeling.
And then he played the lick lol
