      @@davulcu64st since these are triads you are going to be using ONLY 3 notes, so that triad is like just a fragment or piece of the bigger b chord shape, a reason you do that is because triads just have a different kind of sound then the bigger and fatter chords, they can also be used for other things like soloing and stuff later on when you get into targeting the chord tones when soloing

    I'm from down south. I grew up in the Mississippi Delta. I'm so much enjoying playing and learning thanks to you. Thanks to people like you, Marty, I'm inspired. My life long I've wanted to be involved with music. Of all the art forms, music is by far the one that I take most to like a beaver in water. Growing up music was as much a part of my life as was breathing. I can't imagine being who am without music, or how I would have survived, against the greatest of odds, if it wasn't for music. The many sounds are so familiar, and so interrelated, the gospel, blues, jazz, country, rock and roll, surrounding me, beginning as young child and growing up. Looking forward to doing covers of music seemingly forgotten or put aside for some reason or another which was familiar to me growing up. Much of it, I never hear anywhere. I appreciate the contribution that you're making by way of making your work and knowledge accessible to the many. Keep up the good work. Someday I hope to share with you some of what I accomplish. God willing.

    1 year in and this video helped me so much. I am self taught and i’m already grasping this concept pretty well with how scales work, the tones that make those scales stand out as well. This helped me get a better understanding to this mode. Once you know your majors, it’s very easy to find the others. Thanks Marty!!

    Super helpful, Marty. Thanks so much. You have a very direct and logical way of teaching, and not leaving a student bored, or left waiting. This is exactly what I was looking for with better knowledge of the Dorian scale. You take the path of learning much further by relating the scale to where and how it fits with the C major scale (and how to find your place if you get lost. Nice playing as well, which makes learning all the more rewarding, and infectious. Peace, man!

    The light bulb is getting brighter. Best explanation of Dorian I've heard yet. And that trick of taking the first two notes (B and E strings) from each chord of the key and playing them up and down the neck was really an eye opener! Makes perfect sense so it stuck with me. And it sounds great to boot. Thanks Marty. You are much appreciated!

I practiced the crap out of the minor pentatonic scale or would walk up and down scales and it always sounded pretty elementary. I'Ve heard these terms before but never understood how they relate to each other. Last night this video helped me "unlock" something and it all became clear! Thanks so much!

    Great video, in many aspects. The connection between chords and scale is super useful, and simple examples of picking few notes here and there to build a nice progression is also a fantastic, though simple, way to build beautiful phrases. It's early in the morning here, but cant wait people to wake up so i can play. Great impro, great tone, great touch and feeling. Clearly one of the very best video on dorian mode.
    Huge thanks!

  • @kevinmorris7722
    @kevinmorris7722 4 роки тому

    Love how you break down a simi advanced concept.
    This simplifies complex sounds we've all heard but can't find.
    Just to be clear... Marty is simply moving up one chord at a time to play in the next mode. This is not changing keys...he's still using the same chords.
    If he moves up one chord and changes keys the majors and minors even the 7th diminished would chance orders. He's using the key chords the same.
    That's the unique sound of each mode. When he plays the scales from a chord he's playing not the key...it works but gives different feels.
    Very cool Marty.
    Thanks

    Really meaty lesson - thanks Marty! You start with " D Dorian" is C major moved up to the 2nd = D minor" and go from there. Very useful to know, since all the notes and chords are the same, and you do a great job connecting to the familiar pentatonic and actually getting us *using it.*. Just wanted to say that I found it helpful to also connect Dorian to "same as the minor scale but with a major 6th," i.e., think of it terms of intervals. In some contexts that gives me other familiar, practical references. May be helpful for some people. (Generally, if you know your major , minor, and pentatonic scales, all the modes are single-note or single-interval deviations from these.)
