Applying Modes to Bluegrass Mandolin

Howdy KZbin pals! Hope you enjoy Wayne's World of Mandolin and visit often. If you're interested in one on one Skype sessions you can email me at [e-mail]
I have a PayPal Tip Jar that works with the same [e-mail] email address if you'd like to support the channel that way. It would be greatly appreciated.

For me, discovering bluegrass far into my 20's, this approach is much more suitable. Love the music theory explanations of the sounds and feelings I love in music!

Thx for the comment! Some of my students that didn't start playing untill in there 50s were especially encouraged after learning this and a few even started going to jam sessions after the fact!

Great video. Thanks for posting.

This is great. I’m off to the woodshed after I say a prayer for all those people dying in coal mines.

[@iknowyouarebutwhatami]

Good stuff buddy!!!

[@MrSoundpix]

I just learned something new. Thanx for that.🤩

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

You're very welcome. Thx for the comment.

It was great to meet you at the Wright brothers in Georgia. Your vids have been a big help and this one is no exception! Thank you!

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Thank you Darrell! Glad you enjoy WWoM.....

[@cecillegove3906]

Great lesson!

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Thx for that comment Cecille! More content concerning modes is in our future. Stay tuned.

[@prs22gt10]

I remember Alan Munde saying he could play in two modes at once. He called it playing in the co-mode. Great video Wayne!

Hot dang. That's a crisp, poppy-sounding mandolin there buddy. Excellent tutorial and sassy/glassy slides all over the place. Solid.

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Thx Jonathan!

[@lucylindblommusic]

Very helpful lesson - thank you for posting!

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Thank you Lucy! 😊

[@johnterhune4153]

Real good teaching and method lesson. Do a video about creating tunes through the chord arpeggios of the song for melody, Wayne.

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

That's a great idea for a video John! Gonna add it to my request list and hopefully get to it soon. Thx and stay tuned....

[@millerjeff]

Thanks Wayne. Love that minor sound in "bluegrass" Gives it a different flavor altogether.

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Yep. A lotta bluegrass songs work this way even if they're not technically in a minor key.

[@ubiquitousjp]

Great video Wayne! Thanks for the tips.

[@gastonpiget1034]

Super info as usual! Thanks!

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

I watched a video of Our Last Goodbye. What were you playing before your break? I am trying to develop my rhythm/accompaniment playing also. Thoughts?

[@johnwoodcock625]

I feel like I am drinking from a fire hose at times but I just can't shut my mouth! Gonna get there.

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

I feel like that sometimes myself John! Yes, you WILL get there....

[@marksirianni6379]

I'd like to hear what that sounds like over chords just as a sample to get the feel of that "not so happy sound"

[@waynesworldofmandolin3616]

Great idea! Bluegrass Backing Tracks here on KZbin probably has just the content you would need to experiment with that. Good luck.....

[@marksirianni6379]

@@waynesworldofmandolin3616 thank you
