Simple method to organize ALL MUSICAL SCALES of harmonies. We use a simple method based on families and circular interval patterns to organize all scales that are well suited for building up harmonies: "THE SCALES OF HARMONIES". We explore and systematize the Major Modes, Melodic minor Modes, Harmonic minor Modes, Harmonic Major Modes, Diminished Modes, Whole tone Mode and Augmented Modes.

Dear fellow musicians. At 11:29 I made a little (but yet quite stupid) spelling mistake regarding the small green letters showing the interval sequence of the "Whole Tone Scale". The correct interval sequence is of course: "W-W-W-W-W-W". I'm so sorry about this misspell in the graphics!!! I hope you can ignore it and enjoy the lesson anyhow. Many warm regards from Oliver :)

I'm 40 and have been playing paino since I was 6 and this level of understanding of music is humbling on the most basic of topics or so i thought. Back to the drawing board for me as I have spent years experimenting and understanding the relationships of notes as a song writer and performer but wow thank you so much for this video. I've watched it once and I think ill need several more watches to fully comprehend what is being taught and then I'd say about 2 years of implementing this on the piano but wow thank you.

I felt exactly the same way when I bought 'The Guitar Grimoire (Scales and Modes)"after having played guitar for 30 yrs (by ear: I knew chord families and pentatonic major and minor scales, plus Major/Ionian modes, and the steps between the intervals of said intervals, but didn't realize I was playing these different modes. Simple example: when playing lead over the D or D7 chords in the key of G, while starting and ending on the D note (or at least highlighting that note) while playing G Major scale/ Ionian Mode, I was playing Mixolydian Mode. It just took one illustration for me to see and understand scales and modes. Chords are derived from scales and modes. It's quite simple, really. The Guitar Grimoire changed EVERYTHING in the 1990s-- everyone started playing guitar scales diagonally up the neck, rather than in blocks, and no one I know knows who wrote that series of books, as the author used the pseudonym Adam Kadmon (as in Adam & Eve in Judaic mysticism); and wore a mask in the (sub par) video series. It's amazing how someone who *thoroughly* understands theory can convey that info so clearly, like the gentleman playing and teaching in this video. Bravo!!

Your presentation is hands-down the absolute best explanation of this heady material. All of western music is encompassed in this system. In modern composition, modulating using common pivot chords is the foundation of breaking out of the jazz progression box. That's the secret the big boys use. What a beautiful and relaxing presentation. Bravo!

What would be the best way to go about learning this on guitar?

@bpmac123 Жыл бұрын

@@ihateyou3836 The instrument you are playing is secondary to understanding the theory presented here. Here is my specific recommendation for guitar: 1. Learn ONE major scale inside-out up and down the neck. Let's say C major scale. Google C major guitar positions for specific fingerings, or find a good KZfaq video. This one scale is inclusive of all the seven modes: C Ionian, D Dorian, E Phrygian, F Lydian, G Mixolydian, A Aeolian (natural minor), and B Locrian. Then by simple fret movement you will be able to play all 12 major scales anywhere on the neck. For example, move everything up 2 frets from C major, and it's a D major scale and all of the associated modes of D major. 2. The next thing is to learn ONE harmonic minor scale up and down the neck. Then apply the same chromatic shifting up and down the neck to have it in all keys. 3. Learn ONE jazz melodic minor scale and apply the same process. The main thing here is to wrap your head around the idea that ALL of the modes are included in these three scales: Major, harmonic minor, and melodic minor. Instructors get wrapped up in separating the modes and learning them individually, and the student quickly becomes overwhelmed. So here is the secret: Rather than learning all 21 modes of the 3 scales, it's easier to learn 3 scales inside-out, and KNOW in your head what modes are derived from them. I know this might sound insanely complicated, but people devote their lives to this topic. It's a lifelong endeavor. If you aspire to creating great music, be deliberate in your search to find good instructors. Best of luck to you!

I've studied music theory for years, but this video changes the way that I think about modes and harmonies. Thank you for the great information!

That was absolutely the best lesson on scales and theory that I have had in my life! You have opened the door to another universe and answered so many questions, I don't know where to begin....I think I'll start with the harmonic Major. God Bless You!

You are undoubtedly an exceptional personality. I have never seen / heard a didactic video on KZfaq of this quality. The uniquely fabulous atmosphere that you create in your distance learning lesson - also with your wonderfull musical Brittisch - is a dream for every educator not just a music teacher. Thank you for inspiring people for the unspeakably beautiful world of sound. ❤

incredible ! thanks a million ! I have looked over a lot of teaching harmonic video but this one give the whole frame of harmony, not small part. It allows to have a general view of it so we can understand much better. Explanation are very clear and complete.

Earned a subscriber, it's been about 10 years since I've felt like a kid learning chords again. Thank you for this awesome refresher

Cristal Clear. And we all definitively have the moral duty to keep you away from the bus and close to the piano. You just won a brand new translation in italian, hope it gives justice to you efforts. Keep going!

I've been playing guitar since 1971. I would have gave my soul to have known this then. Oh I had piano teacher but she could barely teach c major when I was 8. This was incredible and yes still play my les paul daily .

Good Lord! Out of the many different explanations of the main scales used in Jazz and contemporary music (well over 20 in a span of more than 40 years), this is the clearest, most logical lesson I've ever seen! Thank you very much! I've been looking for something like this to help explain music theory to my very musically talented son, who often doesn't quite have the drive (obsession, whatever it is that serious musicians have) to spend the necessary time and effort required to gain a functional knowledge of music. ❤️❤️❤️🎶🎵🎸😁☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕

Wow you did an amazing job explaining the function of scales using diatonics/modes and the how to modulate through different chord changes. The 7 chords were icing on the cake. Watching you break it down was like asmr. Awesome stuff.
