ALL ABOUT the secrets of HARMONIC MINOR Scale! - Crystal Clear Lesson

[@darraghkinsella8170]

These video's are absolute gold, I'm in shock at the fact that this guy isn't a 'mainstream' KZbin personality for guitar enthusiasts and students alike. Such a clear and concise delivery of information for every concept with easy to understand explanations and images. This guy teaches like a storyteller, bravo.

[@stevendelaval3076]

Finally know what to study analytically and why. Thanks a lot!

[@Dkmahabir]

Best teacher everrrrr...thank you my brother...

[@Hilbertification]

i absolutly agree, clear and consice delivery of information. you hear what is is telling and gives an idee in what kind of way you have to look for using this scale's.

[@simongregory8971]

Thanks Rob, another great video.

[@QJamTracks]

Thank you Simon.

[@clarkstokes7080]

Excellent lesson Rob, thank you!

[@gracedrive904]

I love this video and I appreciate how clear you are with this lesson. I wanted to note that at about 3:45 you say “second degree” but are obviously meaning “third degree” as it is highlighted in the diagram. I just wanted to note this in case it may alleviate any possible confusion for others watching.

[@correametal]

Rob thank you so much for all the content in your channel. This is definitely the best guitar channel I have found on KZbin!!!

[@QJamTracks]

So nice to hear that Jose! Thanks!

[@gedinchristian603]

I like this video witch is very clear. I hope that you "ll publish an Ebook printable about harmonic minor scale as you did about Melodic minor scale. It's very helpfull for learning and memorize.

[@minkorrh]

Great video. I have the minor scale down like nobody's business in most keys, and it's time to stretch out. I love the gypsy jazz variation. My problem is I primarily play by ear so I need to spend a day or two getting my ear around the sound of the scale. Once that happens I can easily pick out the correct notes in one key with my developed 'relative pitch' and then go on to other keys....once I have the visual/audible pattern down I start learning the note names and theory behind it. Might not work for everyone but that's my approach. EDIT.....a big issue of mine is finally realizing that scales are flexible. With phrygian, harmonic minor and natural minor you can fudge over and add notes according to the flavour you want and nothing really has to be set in stone. That was a hard concept for me to grasp.........wrong notes will always make themselves known!

[@GaetanAsselberghs]

Excellent video! I'd like to mention Jason Becker (neo classical) and Jango Reinhardt (gypsy jazz) as inspiring musicians/innovators heavily using harmonic minor and diminished scales.

[@kytronnbueno1428]

Excellent, Thank You for the Tabs!

[@QJamTracks]

You're welcome Kytronn. Keep on playing mate!

[@luizmartins1260]

Thank you for class.

[@seba987xdc]

Very helpful video. I especially liked use of minmaj chord and solo examples.

[@JensLarsen]

Great thorough video and production Rob! (Actually, there is another scale that has a mMaj7 chord on the tonic 🙂)

[@QJamTracks]

Thanks Jens! And you're absolutely right, the meleodic minor scale has mMaj7 on the tonic too :)

[@chaocrator]

great video. would love to see about double harmonic minor from you someday.

[@QJamTracks]

I'll put it on my list :)

[@HarlanHarvey76]

Such great content! You deserve more subscribers!!

[@QJamTracks]

I hear that more often, still I'll keep my hopes up. I hope one day I'll get more exposure. Until then I just keep on making videos :)

[@delusionwalker8852]

I think I am becoming addicted to your channel. There is nothing for me to criticise because everything about your lessons is great clear explained, GREAT visuals, clear nice graphics, good sound great playing and your jam tracks are top! All I wish is that you just keep up the good work because it is inevitable that your channel is going to become big.

[@QJamTracks]

Well thanks DW!. I hope my channel will grow. I put an awful lot of work in it :)

[@crespo1965]

@@QJamTracks Thanks for all of your hard work. The Channel is fantastic. I've been following for about 6 months exclusively. There's so much information on youtube. For me, I've distilled the channels to yours and one other channel. It's help me focus and practice. Thanks!

[@Caglarsax]

Most of the Turkish songs are made in Harmonic Minor.Since I am Turkish harmonic minor scale is very familiar for me.

[@Paolo-ie7nh]

Hi Rob, I got a question, you showed only 2 Patterns for the Harmonic Minor tonality. With its, 3 notes per string version. Both, with the one shape with the root on the 6th string, and one with the root on the 5th string. I just stared to work on the Harmonic Minor tonality. And I was given 5 patterns, CAGED. And I was looking for the "Arpeggios" and "Chords" shapes, in those 5 patterns. KZbin, proposed your Video. So I watched it......and it's great. I am really impressed, by the quality in every detail you have raised. Please consider I'm not a pro, as you can imagine. But how shall we be able to play in postion (vertically), with only 2 patterns? Horizontally, 2 patterns that's fine. I understand you move the root for each shape to the key you are supposed to be in. And you use then, the corresponding pattern.

[@dougp2917]

4:46 In the E Melodic minor scale, the I chord is a Em Maj7 chord as well.

[@QJamTracks]

You're absolutely right Doug... Thanks for pointing that out to me!

[@lostar_ozgur]

Great content!!!!! thank you

[@francisphillip]

Rob, Thank you for another excellent video, with great content. Your video content is superbly well presented to make everyone understand, absorb the knowledge that you have imparted, to help us have a better understanding of the modes as well as helping us to improve to become better guitar players. Thank you Cheers

[@QJamTracks]

Thank you very much for your kind words Phillip!

[@electricwally]

Another "crystal clear" episode! Will we see a video on the Harmonic Minor modes and how to use them? Thank you Rob from Pennsylvania, USA

[@alva72nashir3]

great

[@adonislajara6955]

superb lesson

[@QJamTracks]

Thanks Adonis! :)

[@adonislajara6955]

QJamTracks seriously man, the way you do your lessons are real crystal clear, please don’t stop making them. I have a suggestion, could you please make a lesson about making line’s with economy picking in fusion and Jazz or improvisation over chord changes. Thanks 👍🏻

[@QJamTracks]

@@adonislajara6955 I will do that. I'll put it in the que :)

[@radiozelaza]

a minor-Major7th chord can also be found in Melodic Minor and Hungarian minor.

[@hieuphan448]

Hi Mr Rob, thanks very much for the lesson, it's great. Pls do not use blue color to high light on tab, it hides notes when you play. Thanks again

[@insider106]

Well done. In harmonic scale "dimished" means "half diminished" right? Dank je well.

[@QJamTracks]

In the harmonic minor scale you'll find a half diminished chord on the 2nd degree and a diminished chord on the 7th degree.

[@SkwisgaarScampini]

You said you only find the minor major 7 chord in a harmonic minor scale, but it’s also found in melodic minor

[@DatKundalini]

[@radiozelaza]

Harmonic minor sounds so profoundly European and Western, that I can't imagine how anyone could imagine pyramids while hearing it.

[@nerad1994]

Possibly because of its relation to Phrygian dominant mode?

[@radiozelaza]

@@nerad1994 and what has Phrygia to do with Egypt? It's on the western shore of Turkey ;)
