[@opoopolo]

This channel is criminally underrated. Thank you so much for this!

[@tommyjohnw82]

You are the one Neo!

[@Sewersyrup]

This channel is criminally underrated. so much great stuff, here hoping the algo finally picks it up.

[@Newstetter]

Thanks! Hope so too!

[@zenlandzipline]

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.

[@cj.mccarthy]

as a self taught "intermediate" guitarist, thank you. this channel is a gem.

[@Newstetter]

Much appreciated!

[@jonjeziorski5354]

This reminds me of George Benson’s Secret of the Two Chords & Pat Martino’s Dorian ideas from the Linear Expressions book. This is among the best music theory videos I’ve ever seen

[@Newstetter]

Martino and Benson are both geniuses on the instrument ... If I can offer even a small percent of what they have given I'll be happy.

[@NewAgeSam]

one of the best videos for music education i've ever seen!

[@34rn357]

Long-awaited and well worth the wait! Thanks, Professor!

[@Newstetter]

You’re welcome!

[@HallamStudios]

Well sir my head just exploded! One of the best and most valuable lessons I have ever seen anywhere. Liked and sub'd Thank you!!!

[@Newstetter]

Welcome and thanks!

[@mattsuwak3759]

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.

[@TaoGroovewitch]

I'm excited to find concepts that I'm starting to stumble into accidentally lol let's goooo! 🔥🤘🏾🔥

[@davidsorge7008]

love the excitement in your talk ... I can realy see the utter importance and the tension inside of it ❤

[@nextphase7481]

What a well-presented lesson on musical theory! There is a whole lot to digest and I expect to be returning to this video many more times. Thanks!

[@khannarmurr]

Just echoing everyone else and saying this is the single best music theory video I have ever seen

[@jimbeaux4988]

Great idea and ends up with some really nice lines. Good way to break out of arp rut.

[@Borzovik]

It’s just WOW! Thank you so much. I’m your subscriber now and ever

[@jtbutlerjr]

Thank you, Mark. This will be very useful after I internalize it. 👍🏾👍🏾

[@patrickblay7684]

Thank you Mark for this very Original and different way of Teaching .

[@Lordcamilli]

This way of teaching this concept is just absolutely amazing, I’m gonna quote you and use it with my students, and of course refer them to your Chanel!

[@Thorgue]

This clicks so much! Thank you! I'm a visual thinker. Never understood it through all that circle of fifths stuff. Now I do. Last bit is super useful for soloing!

[@danhusband6154]

wow, wow,wow…I’m watching this at 7 a.m. and I’m running to grab my guitar in my robe with my morning coffee to get this under my fingers. My wife thinks I’m nuts…Subscribed!

[@drawingwithsound8022]

Yes!! Free lesson! Thank you! I subscribed! 😄

[@michaelsimon8260]

Brother, thank you so much for your exhaustive exploration of the diatonic system!! This was seriously mind expanding. You just saved me years of fumbling in the dark

[@anandaurora]

Fantastic tour of harmonic science.. Lots of material to internalise.. Thank you

[@StuartwasDrinkell]

This was mind alterting! Thank you Mark!

[@Stevie_D_Pre]

What an awesome video. Was not expecting that level of production

[@Newstetter]

Can't ask for higher praise! Hope can exceed your expectations with the next one as well. Thanks so much!

[@a11pu1poj]

never seen this explained this way. Really cool way to see how the 3rds interact. good stuff here!!

[@june5877]

This is such a fascinating concept.

[@oaties-tones]

I love this new world. 💙 These content explanations from new Creators. What an AMAZING piece of art. thank you for sharing this with us. I'm overjoyed to see wisdom on such a display. Brahman be with you💙

[@makisGibs]

Pretty solid approach to arpeggio usage! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the way to look at things. Most of the time miracles happen when you just change perspective on things you already know! Greetings from a fellow musician.

[@thunderace4588]

Thank you Mark.

[@LutherBaker]

Fascinating! Thank you for taking the time to put this together! Video - animation - and great observations! I am studying melodies and phrasing and I feel this applies! The "algorithm" knows! lol. Subscribed!

[@blake343]

I have been just starting to figure this out and practice it when youtube recommends this video to me. Internet algorithms r creepy sometimes

[@mrdjangofreeman5560]

Learning piano jazz, so very good and extremely key video. Thank you !

[@Newstetter]

You're very welcome!

[@richarddriscoll666]

Very well done sir a plus thank you

[@ChanokchaiChauychoo]

Wow. This high quality channel i just discovered. Great work!

[@Newstetter]

Thanks!

[@TinyBolts1]

love the video and editing

[@pierheadjump]

⚓️ Thanks Mark 🌈

[@Newstetter]

Thank you @pierhead. Good to see you again!

[@TheDanielRusso]

thank you sir

[@Newstetter]

You're very welcome!

[@Sketchup-fe6ef]

this is all good, i would like to know how to use this over a backing track, and learn one mode at a time

[@Newstetter]

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.

[@Sketchup-fe6ef]

Would like to see a video on that Mark

[@scholarofthelosttrove]

Love this

[@osamaofearth]

thank you sir, learnt a lot.

[@Newstetter]

Glad to know! Thank you!

[@stevenjones6780]

Back when I first started on guitar 47 years ago, everyone was focused on minor pentatonic. For some reason I decided to focus more on diatonic thinking instead, and I'm so glad I did! ....Also, wonder what you think of the Barry Harris things...?

[@Newstetter]

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.

[@ldlework]

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?

[@Newstetter]

Thats the idea ... yes.

[@AbuLahab555]

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.

[@Newstetter]

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.

[@dotarjun]

Wow

[@tracerammo]

Quartile chords seem to pull towards the second degree in my ear. I wonder if the alternation thing has anything to do with that?

[@Newstetter]

The 2nd or 9th is the next note after the 7th ... the ear always wants to move toward an implied destination, in the case of chords and arpeggios the movement is in 3rds, so the ear wants to hear the next 3rd ...

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

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.

[@sandrocavali9810]

Rick Beato may understand

[@arpeggioblues5924]

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

[@Newstetter]

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 ...

[@dylanthomas389]

Are you a Joe Frank fan?

[@Newstetter]

That's a name no one's mentioned for a long time. I used to listen to his "Word Jazz" when it was on WBAI ... Honestly, I did think of him while I was doing that narration.

[@dylanthomas389]

@@Newstetter you nailed it. I knew you had to be a fan. Do more like that please

[@youbute10]

Fascinating stuff Mark I subscribed half way through the video I'm gonna hang around as I would love to learn more.
