- Music Theory - How To Use Lydian Major and Sus4 Arpeggios
In this episode I discuss the structure and usage of both Lydian Major and Sus4 Arpeggios for improvising and composition. A Lydian Major chord consists of the 1 3 #4 5 notes of the Lydian Mode and a Sus4 Triad is the 1 4 5 of a Major Scale.
C Lydian Major = C E F# G or 1 3 #4 5 of a Lydian Scale
C Sus4 = C F G or 1 4 5 of a Major Scale

Lydian Major sounds like The Simpsons
Ultramajic the theme song does use the Lydian mode! Good ear!
I would say it's mixolydian #11, but of course it has the lydian major arp in it.
i heard the simpsons for a second as well lol
Simpsons is def in Lydian..uses the 4#...same as the theme of Westside story and every Steve Vai solo!!!
The Simpson theme is written on a Lydian Dominant, a mode of the melodic minor. Correct me if i am wrong
The f lydian mode is the same as a raag in hindustani classical music. It's called yaman. I've been trying to improvise on that for a while now I my mind has opened up like never before. Thanks man.
kiran kumar Yeah. I correlate this lydian mode with the song main rahoon ya na rahoon by Arman malik, there are a lot of songs on yaman raag though.
So many good tools in here. Great video, Rick!
Randy Rhoads, guitarist for Ozzy Osborne, used this in the opening chord of "diary of a madman". This is where I heard it for the first time as a teenager.
Meet George Jetson!
Keith Emerson (RIP) played lots of Lydian and Sus4 Arpeggios...Excellent tutorial,thanks so much.
I will do a Keith Emerson video in the future. Cheers!
my favorite lydian sequence is 1, 2, #4, 5 repeated over several octaves
it's not all that versatile but it's great to bust out in certain situations
This really makes me wish I wasn't such a disaster on guitar.
Then start practicing and stop wishing
I have found that any Sus chord works over any bass note. some might sound a little more off than others but the most part one can use any Sus chord over any bass note.
Thanks
as always, beautiful lines. just a suggestion, tritone sub the lydian for locrian in a ll V chord sequence, like CM7#11 to B7 #5#9 instead of the F#m7b5 to B7 to help with the m7b5. thanks again for all the amazing material.
I'm George Jetson
Cornbob Rimlove LOL. I read your comment before Rick played the line. I can't concentrate now. I keep laughing every time I try to start again.
wow..never heard beautiful lines like that sir..maestro
helo. sir
can u make a chart lydian #9
tha prevous lession....plz uplode...undiscover scales. ..
my head is exploding - infinite knowledge - unreal
This reminds me of the Chinese scale, which is 1 3 #4 5 7. You can use it as a sort of lydian pentatonic although the 7 makes it darker and less stable
Those Sus4 arpeggios towards the end of the video are so cool sounding.
Thank you Rick for the insightful theory on various music themes. Especially enjoyed the film score videos. Really cool stuff (film scores are really great to listen to) . Would love to see more on establishing various Lydian sounds and Chromaticism in jazz and applying it to the guitar
Will do!
Strongly recommend a 2 strings fingering technic. It gives you more mobility in a horizontal way, a lot less thinking.
fingering = 2-1-2-3, 2-1-2-3,2-1-2-3,1-3. Same fingering to return.
I learned this arp or one just like ir from the very end of Zappa's 'black napkins'
Meet George Jetson Lydian triad. More Boomer Bends Rick!!!! Boomer Bend that sharp 4.
Very cool scale, you get a very ''enchanted'' or lost in the woods kinda feel to it! I'll have to experiment with that mode!
Great Rick!! But hey ... 9:31 is so Aram Chatschaturjan :-)
Realization! The Jetsons show theme song is Lydian major!! 🤣
rick I just want to ask if november rain of guns and roses was in lydian mode?
They the lydian play you were doing to show sounded like final fantasy 7
Hello Rick! Your channel, along with Jens Larsen's, is by far the best out there on youtube covering these thematics! I would just ask one question/comment, is there any other Lydian but major? If we take m3, then we get dim chord basically, so, I suppose we can just say its Lydian, major seems a bit overinfo?
Omar Bilalović you also have lydian dominant (from the melodic minor scale I think?)
Omar Bilalović there is also Lydian Augmented and Lydian #9
im more confused than ever
Them 7, 8 string heads ....... 🙄🙄🙄
Rick, you are fucking awesome. Damn glad to meet you.
Thanks for all you do.
Peace out,
BeTh :)
Hi Rick, great video as always, but next time could you lower the sound of the strings playing in the background when you are playing the scale?
It makes it hard for me to hear what you are saying
this would help here to be aware of the modes of the melodic minor scale to make sense of this. hes essentially just using a D altered scale but emphasizing different notes using the diatonic arpeggios of the parent scale, which is the Eb melodic minor scale.
here are the modes: Eb melodic minor, f dorian flat 6th, Gb lydian #5, Ab LYDIAN DOMINANT, Bb mixolydian b6, C locrian nat2, and D ALT DOMINANT
i have capitalized the 2 scales that are involved in the playing. he is mostly playing over a D7alt chord by using a Ab lydian dominant. they are the same thing. it would be like playing a D dorian over a C major chord. same notes. which means hes just playing a Daltdom but emphasizing different notes. by playing the Ab lydian arppeggio he is emphasizing the #4/b5, the b7, the 1, and the b9 of the D7alt chord. which means these lines will go well on any chord that has either a b9 or a b5 or both...#9 and #5 you may have to be more careful depends on the other notes in the chord.
Thanks, Rick. When I studied in school we learned primarily to use the melodic minor and Lydian b7 over altered dominant chords. This opens up a whole new tonality for me.
That Aeolian F with Csus4, Absus4 & Fsus4 reminds me of the music from 'First Blood' which I guess was Jerry Goldsmith
Rick Beato you use alternate picking but wondered if you practice economy picking or sweeping? Are there anything techniques you wish you had developed or are currently practicing?
The sus 4 arpeggios at the end remind me of the Barber Piano Sonata. I used to wonder what those sounds were....now I know! Cheers.
Is the simpsons intro in lydian? Just starting to learn
Rick - When you play these arpeggios, there are big jumps in the fingering. Are these scales a mixture of octave displacement? It seems the notes could be easier, but you mix up the octaves to get the more dynamic sound. These big jumps are very difficult, but I think it’s the octave displacement that particularly makes it sound nice.
I think I might be able to connect this to a Japanese Hirajoshi scale. That might sound cool :)
Van Halen on Girl gone bad 1984 album. Check out how Eddie uses this in the intro... He uses an open Lydian voicing 7 notes arpeggio in the build up...my ears tell me he does anyway
Thank you, Rick. Your lessons are mind blowing music theory. You are a very good teacher. I would request you to please show the guitar lines you play real slow, so, that one could pick it up easily and then practice it to get it correct. Thanks anyway, just a suggestion. Thanks so much. Your lessons are much appreciated.
This is really cool. I'm gonna have a fun time looking through your channel!
On the Lydian Major, I'm actually rolling my 2nd finger on the Eb and the Ab instead of using my 3rd finger on Ab. Hope you don't mind!
Took me a while to find out what variety of Les Paul you're using. Looks to be a Les Paul Special DC (double cutaway) in "TV Yellow". Have you customized it in any way? I really like that clean tone. I'm more of a Fender guy, but I might break down and get one of these :)
+Sound Author It's one of the best playing guitars I've ever owned.
Rick i found you after Holdsy passed & i gotta say you r an amazingly insightful person. thank you for sharing your musical knowledge. love the stories interviews and lessons. so glad i found out. late as always but I'm here.
Please adopt me. I mean it. Seriously. For real. I beg you.
All those sus4 chords... Wow! and I thought I was doing good getting 4 major triads in a diminished scale. Bravo, Maestro!!!!
Your tutorials are absolutely helpful! I'm a bass player, and this licks and tips for the chords, are very useful whenever I'm about to improvise or create some bass lines. Thnks a lot for your videos and Keep up with such an amazing job .
This reminds me of how Marty Friedman uses the hirojoshi scale. 1-b2-4-5-b6
I hit the suscribe button only to realise I am already subscribed..
Love your content sir...
Rediscovering music theory
3:16 What scale are you playing?
I hear The Jetsons theme song in those notes.
crazy advanced music theory! SO good :-)
I'm still in love for this video
Love this ! Sus triads sounding gorgeous . Thanks for the video Rick
What a great lesson Rick!! Thank you so much! I can hear those Shawshank Redemption sounds on the F aeolian example!
Maybe a lesson on sus chods/harmony if there is anything to say, huh?
I love how you do lessons that most people wouldn't think about.
Love all your stuff Rick!!
Peter
Wait, when hent to piano and was playing the arpeggio over different chords, wasn't playing the a Lydian notes?
Dude you are hilarious 🌊
I really like how this guy shows the scale tones against the chords. This really gives some context.
Anybody wanna hear me play sum "Cowboy Chords"???
Hello sir, please make a video on how to sequence scales and arpeggios.
0:23 "Like a good neighb-"
5.30 continue/prelude of ff7
I know none of those things
This is too advanced i dont follow on screen tabs would help a lot😩
Like a good neighbor.....
What are you using, RIck? :) What gauge is he using, guys?
Sir I am a very low level musician, but I love your lessons, I really like how you dont water down the information, and you only talk in theory terms of music, no shortcuts, that is really helping me connect the knowledge If acquired through the years with my year, thank you so much
Oh and something that really helps too is that you are always playing the notes while you mention them, thanks again
I m trying these ideas on tapping ideas, very interesting
Can you send me the tab or tell me the name of this arpeggio?
Glad I found this place. Thanks for the sharing.
Thank you Rick!
Meet George Jetson?
Those Sus4 Apeggios have really really cool sound
The Simpsons!
Just lovely.
How many chords, different types of chords, are in each mode? Are there more than seven modes?
Jonah Moore yes there is the mode of harmonic minor, melodic minor and Even double major
Here come the Jetsons!!! Lol

I can't not here the Simpsons when I listen to the lydian
Its pretty obvious.

Get Rick's book, it's all there. I bought it recently. It's a mine of information like this and more. I'm not affiliated, just a Beato fan.
What a great teacher!
great sounds!
