Thanks Isaac 🤯 dig it. I’ve never heard Barry mention melodic minor - only harmonic. Now it makes sense. Revelations 🙏

[@arktetmusic5319]

To our previous conversation; for you and your listeners; the channel: labyrinth of limitations - is a great resource; he has a lovely way of describing parts of the method and utilising it.

Brilliant, thank you Isaac!

[@carlodalpiaz7955]

[@markeliasof1830]

THANKS! these are great! How about Barry's Chromatic scale in minor?

[@NizJazzBTC]

Can you share the class printout with us? Thanks

[@brianmedina4852]

Is there a way I could possibly obtain the sheet you introduced in the beginning of the video?

[@jameserenberger3425]

On a strong beat on a chord tone, couldn't you add 1 between 6 & 5, 1 between 4 & 5, and 1 between b3 & 4?

Amazing stuff as always!! I was wondering, does the added-notes rule demonstrated here apply the exact same way for ascending scales? So say for the first example which is (C B A Ab G F Eb F D Db C) Would the pattern for ascending scales be that exact thing, but backwards? OR, rather the tone-wholetone pattern backwards- meaning (C D Eb F G Ab A G Bb B C). Thanks for all the invaluable info!!!! Much love from Toronto
