Hi, what’s the tritone’s minor? Wait, is it Fmin6/C? Tritone of E7 = B7, minor of B7 = Fmin.

hi, the derivative chords off the b3dim is pretty cool. around 10 minutes, what do you mean by not having the 5th of the 3rd on the 2nd string in the flat 3 dim substitution?

i haven't been able to get the app to work on my Mac. Is there a PDF of this i can purchase? What you're playing is very clear but I'd love to know what 6dim scale some of the borrowing stuff is coming from. A few of these borrowed sounds could be coming from multiple places it seems, but it would be great to know how you are thinking about them

I can’t believe I never thought of playing the scale like an on off every other note being a diminished. This is going to help so much. Now I can’t not hear it that way. I think when you first start learning this it can’t be overwhelming my brain kind of freezes.

Amazing. This is the single best piece of content I have seen on this topic. Concisely puts it all together. I'd love to see more examples, particularly if there are other ingredients you like to use. My only question is how to think about the E-D-E-D in bar 2. Enclosure for E♭ ?

I bought your PDF on the elevator a year or more ago. It was amazing. I wish I had you around when I was 14 and had nearly infinite time to play guitar. Back then I tried to be like the Chili Peppers and "not know" music and then I realized that was a scam and I tried to learn all the scales and wasted tons more time. It wasn't until my 30's that I realized the use of Arpeggios and Chord inversions. But this Barry Harris stuff is next level and you are a fantastic teacher. Thank you!

Hello and thank you for your work! Your elevator system is nice, and at first, it looks a bit scary but it is actually not so hard to apply and to play beautiful harmonies with it. Congratulations on your pedagogy, it is a clear system. To what extent the elevator system could be applied to traditional harmony, like in the usual major chord scale? I could notice the same typical contrary motion Unison > Third > Triad in some Ted Greene's arrangement but never could find theory or lessons about it. In particular, the Ted Greene's pdf online named "Diatonic Major Contrary Motion Progressions" has some progressions that exactly follow your elevator system on the major scale. It makes me wonder: does your elevator system exist apart from Barry Harris's 6 diminished scale of chord or is it by definition intricated with this scale?

Im halfway through the book. A concise summary of Barry’s devices ! the CAGED stuff I skipped over, I never learned it that way, it confuses me (like Tab does :)) One device no one mentions except Pasquale (assuming he learned it from Barry) is creating automatic four note runs, with the intervals being determined by if its a starts or ends on a Major scale degree (R, 4th, 5th) or a minor scale degree (2,3,6,7). The minor scale degrees are simply 4 note chromatic runs (e.g, D-Eb-E-F ascending or F-E-Eb-D descending). The major scale degrees change intervals a bit wither they are ASC (C-D-Eb-E) or DESC (E-D-Db-C). Those are easy to automate and can contribute to guid runs. :)

Thanks, Navdeep! I"m a big advocate of learning to see the landscape of the guitar in every way possible. The CAGED thing is about something deeper within the curriculum that is really at the heart of what I'm teaching (present in both the monophonic and polyphonic side of things). It's an unconventional use of CAGED to do something completely different with it that, in my view, is incredibly freeing. It's part of the Algorithmic guitar system that is overarching in the whole curriculum, though it has to be taught in steps -even the elevator stuff is nested within the larger algorithmic guitar approach of which the use of CAGED is also a cohesive part --the end goal being effortless fluency. Just my thoughts on it:) I think it's also great if someone doesn't find that part interesting but finds other aspects of use.

@@TheLabyrinthofLimitations As for fingerboard knowledge and intro scale studies, I started out as an adult only in about 2010 studying with Jack Cecchini, a master jazz and classical guitarist in Chicago. Jack had me work with the Sophocles Pappas intro book (Pappas was Charlie Byrds’ teacher in Washington) and, more importantly, the Chuck Wayne scale book. Chuck Wayne was probably the greatest hybrid picking jazz guitarist most don’t know about it-Pasquale does, he studied with one of Chuck’s students in Italy. In any event, we never discussed CAGED per se. Maybe it was implicit n it, I don’t know. As for chords, he had me go through Ronnie Ben Hurr’s Chordability book and video. As we know, Roni was a long time student of Barry’s as well.

Hello sir, i have a question. Sometimes i'm puzzled by the dim or min6th dim scale. The Dmin6th in your example, has the passing Abdim. That comes from the G7, i get it. But if i'm playing Dmin6th dim chords the dims are C#, E, G and Bb. I'm referring to your example in the vid on 4:30. So i'm playing the minor6th .. Dmin6th / Bmin7b5 on the G7. Where does the Ab coming from? Could it be Am6th you reffering to? Then it would make sense, to me... maybe you have an vid that could help me. I'm a fan of your vids. Also liking the Tilf channel. Both of you are great inspirators. Keep up the good work. Greetings from the Netherlands.

Creation theory - the Abo7, being the parent, has become G7/Dmin6 by dropping the Ab down a semitone
@patrickkelly9621 Ай бұрын
All dominant and minor 6 chords are derived from diminished chords. Lower a note you get a dominant, raise a note you get min6. The g7 is derived from lowering the Ab in an Abdim7
@LokeyeMC Ай бұрын
This is the thing that tripped me up the most and for the longest time while learning all of BH's theories. As you'll see by the other responses, it comes down to the creation theory. The Abdim chord is where the G7/Dmin6 comes from, so the Ab is always fair game. Pretty tricky!

Hey Thomas - do you ever see folks play with the family of the tonic to create tension? I like to use a certain tonic family member chord in place of a dominant; say we’re in C major I might Dm7 - F#6/C# - C (maj7 or 69) I was wondering if you’ve ever seen precedent for this and if you think it might fit into Barry’s method. It’s a sound I like, but I struggle to figure out what to do with it!
@pickinstone Ай бұрын
Labyrinth, I was wondering if you could do a video on how rhythm and pulse figure into Barry's conception of harmony? I have often heard that Barry treated harmony and linear playing as different entities, but I see so many similarities between the two--I think that they were part of a unified method that included rhythm. Many of us get into Barry's world through his half step rules--which are rooted in pulse and rhythm. I know that his harmonic concepts setup tension and release, but I was wondering if you've studied how they relate to the pulse (rhythmic tension/ release) to create swing? Like, experimenting with playing diminished chords on the on beats vs. off beats... I dunno, could be something interesting to explore because Barry Harris used to say "rhythm rules the world." I think everything Dr. Harris taught was rooted in rhythm.
