  • This episode focuses on Modal Mixture or using multiple modes over one chord using upward and downward modulations. This episode should be watched after • Video
    This incorporates modal theory with knowledge of the circle of 5ths. This is great for improvising on jazz tunes and writing contemporary classical on popular music.

    In ottoman classical (and other modal based systems) they have been doing this modal mixture for hundreds of years, for example they mix some makam uşşak (aeolian with a 1 komma flatted 2) and segah (kind of major flavour) in almost every song in rast (ionian with 1 komma flatted 3). The main difference is that they work with 4 or 5 note groupings ('half scales') which they combine with a common note, mostly the 4th or 5th degree of the first tetra/pentachord. It's cool to see the same concept in a different context :)

    • @GeorgeSPAMTindle
      @GeorgeSPAMTindle 6 років тому +4

      Jos, while I agree in part to what you are saying I think that a lot of players, such as Joe Satriani and Steve Vie, probably do more composing, especially of solos, using a calculator instead of their ears. That explains why they are technically impressive but manage to be artistically mundane.

    This video has been a massive leap for me, it's put what little I already know into perspective for me. At first I questioned what's the point in analysing modal changes this deep, "if all of it is pretty much in the same key regardless" as the ignorance of me would say. But now I understand why it's so helpful to do so, the way this video presented the tension and release of modes surrounding a chord connected pathways in my brain haha. I always knew following the pentatonic generally gives good results, but I just needed a video like this.
    There'll be more musical revelations in store for me I'm sure, thanks!

  • @jamiepastman5594
    @jamiepastman5594 2 роки тому

    this is wonderful stuff Rick. The only thing I don't quite agree with is to always move from less tension to more tension in mode choices as you build lines. I like it the other way round sometimes, it's like slowly pulling back a harmonic curtain to slowly reveal the harmonic "home" (least tension) last. Can be very effective if you trust your audiences ears (which could be a mistake , lol).

  • @WillKriski
    @WillKriski 5 років тому

    Cool. I love using different superimposed structures on the guitar to get different color tones that don't fit one scale. Eg triads, 1235, pentatonics, m7, etc. I don't think in terms of modes for the most part but they quickly, verbally communicate what intervals are in the scale.

  • @SMart7751
    @SMart7751 Рік тому

    @longfade 5 років тому +1

    Wow, great! One of my favorite passages is the last few minutes of Messiaen's 'Dieu parmi nous', where the chords step down over a pedal, increasing in tension, until they resolve in a 6 chord. I wonder if some the modal concepts you're presenting here weren't in play there. It's extremely dramatic.
