Thanks for the great video. I am dreaming of a video like this focused on the chord-tones of the various scale degrees so that I can draw from them intuitively as I try to learn to take my improvisation from simply jamming in key to following and harmonizing with the current chord in the progression. You wouldn't happen to have some generalizable geometric secret to chord tones would ya? :)

This is gold. Especially the “flipping the script” part. This journey we are on is strange. Sometimes concepts have been right in front of your face, and you figure them out on your own. And other times, somebody like Mark comes around and shows you something like this, and yer like “damn…that was so obvious, right in front of me for decades and I never looked at it like that!” This video has enough info to keep me busy for a while. Thanx Mark.

Just yo be clear, you ate playing each A mode? A dorian A Phrygian etc? New yo this, sorry if its a stupid question. Good exercise up and down the board! Thank you.
@NewstetterСағат бұрын
Not a stupid question at all. You are correct … A dorian, A aeolian, and so on. Ultimately you would want to play them in every key, but it’s good to get them all in one place for comparison.

@@Newstetter I hit 2 instead of 8, but yeah. I didn’t live through that one (I’m not 105 yo) but I guess we know what it was like, because we experienced Covid. It’s a sad thing, so many died. I had a friend, a keyboard player in a jazz big band, who didn’t get the V, and he caught Covid and died 4 or 5 days later. The band has 15 players. 9 of them caught Covid. All had gotten the V. Except for 1 guy. Him. He was a trumper, and an anti V guy. I’m just glad it pretty much behind us now.

That's deep stuff. I wonder if that is why my ear always wants to land on the vii and keep going instead of resolving on the root, because it's on the opposite side of the root from the tonal center. By the way, if you have never been tested for Parkinson's, you should go.
@Newstetter7 сағат бұрын
Welcome to the channel! @AbuLahab555 ... It all depends on the context. The vii of the major mode can lead to the tonic, or it can be part of a progression away from the tonic. There are many ways to tease the ear to take one tonal journey or another. You might enjoy my video on the Tritone ... "Tritones Squared" ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGmqoYaEgbOKqrs Regarding your concern about Parkinson's, I have a bit of BET ... Benign Essential Tremor, a hereditary condition which, as the name indicates, does not pose a health risk. But thanks.

Start with a simple repeating ii-V change and run through the arpeggios one by one, start with the ii ... once you've got that down follow with the vi, the iii, the vii ... etc ... explore the tonality, play them ascending and descending, stop along the way ... break up the patterns by playing them as "coiled" triads, i.e.; A C E, C E G, E G B, G B D, B D F#, D F# A ...Get a sense of what sounds you like, play with timing and rhythm. It's not only about the notes, but how you approach them rhythmically. Try even time, then give them different durations ... it's a process of discovery.

I've been playing for a few years and I'm stubborn about it. I want to learn it my way, mostly through trial and error and tons of practice. My knowledge of theory is all over the place, but through practice I am learning what questions to ask and how to ask them. It works for me and has gotten me to a happy place in life. This video has SO MUCH information in it. I can't absorb it all, but I can hear what you're saying more clearly than any other lesson I've taken. Well presented material that I will be referring to frequently during my learning. Thank you.

Trees don't grow by appearing at the ground, branching at 10 feet, 20 feet, and finally 60 feet. They grow from the ground up. Doing thirds up two octaves requires thinking too much, and isn't particularly musical. And 5 points off for talking about modes.

A key trick, if you convert to 4s tuning, there is 1/3 the number of arpeggio patterns to learn.. makes learning arpeggios 300% faster
@Newstetter16 сағат бұрын
That would be true for triads, but if you cover all six strings through 13th arpeggios, you'll still have (at least) seven patterns for those. Of course there are pros-and-cons for any tuning. Also any new tuning means relearning a lot of chord voicings. But if you're up for the task ...

Barry Harris is, of course, a great resource of insight into jazz theory, composition, etc. We can all learn from him. I'm especially interested in his ideas about rhythm and how to shift accents from beat to beat in sequential measures.

The key insight I took away (I know there's more information here that I'm still trying to digest) is that by playing down from a high-pitched root, you inevitably play through the upper extensions of that chord. More generally, playing down from the root anywhere takes you through the upper extensions of that chord. Do I have that right?
