Here is the theoretical point, briefly explained in one comment. I hope it can help :) Guthrie is exemplifying the general idea of modes and its importance, by demonstrating how differently *two modes of the same scale* can sound. The one and only scale soloed over here is the common _C major scale,_ yet the _"jolly pirate" mode_ and the _"slightly jazzy blues guy" mode_ sound entirely different. That is the basic point. 1) The first mode demonstrated is the *Ionian mode;* the _'jolly pirate' mode._ This mode is evoked by ending the phrases on the note C, which is the 1st step in the C major scale. And so, the note C is your home here. 'Ionian mode' simply means 'a major scale with home on its 1st step'. Hence, a 'C major scale with home on its 1st step C' is theoretically named a *C Ionian scale.* (The jolly pirate spirit is emphasised by the backing track playing just a jolly C chord.) 2) The second mode demonstrated is the *Dorian mode;* the _'slightly jazzy blues guy' mode._ This mode is evoked by ending the phrases on the note D, which is the 2nd step in the C major scale. And so, the note D is your new home here. 'Dorian mode' simply means 'a major scale with home on its 2nd step'. Hence, a 'C major scale with home on its 2nd step D' is theoretically named a *D Dorian scale.* Again, this already sounds confusing, but it is really just another name for another approach to, or _mode_ of, the C major scale. (The slightly jazzy blues guy mood is emphasized by the backing track playing the chords Dm7 and G9.)

@DrStabkill8 жыл бұрын
+Jon Sebastian Its made simpler if you go at it more in terms of key. The first example was in C the second in D. So its not just ending the notes on C or D, its more ending the notes on the tonic. If you were playing over something in C and continuously ended on a D it would sound more like a suspension, sure you could call it playing it in Dorian but it wouldn't be. Same notes, different tonic. The tonic key is whats most relevant here.

@alfonshomac8 жыл бұрын
Or to work out 7 of the most used modes instead of memorising them, You just memorise this string: *T T S T T T S* where T stands for Tone, that is you skip a fret,( i.e. from 0 to 2), and S for Semitone, which is code for the very next fret (i.e. 0 to 1). If you find home, wherever you want it to be and use those intervals to construct a scale, you get _the pirate mode_. To construct the other 6 modes I mentioned, here's what you do: 1 ) Remove the first letter 2 ) Append it to the end... that's it. So you get this pattern: T T S T T T S - Pirate mode, Major (happy sounding) T S T T T S T - This one sounds a little irish-ey to me, melancholic sounding. This is the one Guthrie is playing. S T T T S T T - This one sounds like flamenco or arabic. weird sounding. T T T S T T S - The Simpsons theme lives here. T T S T T S T - This is the same as the Pirate mode, except it has a dominant 7 (sounds bluesy) T S T T S T T - This one is your plain old vanilla "minor" scale. S T T S T T T - This one is the weirdest. give it a try. Choose one, find it everywhere in your instrument, and you'll start finding hidden patterns like the one Guthrie showed, some scales coincide in different tonal centres. Now it's up to you to drone it, feel it, play it and really internalise them. Let's give it a spin and figure The Simpsons one out. Guitar players love the key of E so lets call that home Recall : T T T S T T S 1) E (this is home, we chose this one arbitrarily) + T 2) F# + T 3 ) G# + T 4 ) A# + S 5 ) B + T 6 ) C# + T 7 ) D# + S 8 ) E and there you go. 7 modes are now in your brain... you just need to get them to your fingers+ears system. As an exercise, figure out the one Guthrie is playing and post it here or somewhere so other people can see it. Thank's to +JimJamBanx for the corrections.
@alfonshomac8 жыл бұрын
***** thanks for reading that lost tome of the LotR. I'm glad you enjoyed. You can extend that reasoning to allow constructing chords and chord progressions, too. I'd love to see if you could tease the chords hiding in plain sight in the patterns that emerged from the structure I presented. Or maybe you already know how. This way around you only need to understand very few basic principles and from those, logically construct a ton of music and even surprise yourself with new patterns just by exploration, similar to how a mathematician or physicist discovers structure in maths, instead of the other way around of memorizing tons of voicings and seemingly disconnected factoids regarding things that 'work', bewildered at how other people seem to memorize so much. When many really don't, they're just constructing, instead.
@JoshuaConnorMusic8 жыл бұрын
Just thought I'd mention that the Simpsons theme doesn't live in Lydian, nor is it the mode that Guthrie is playing in the video. The Simpsons theme is in Lydian Dominant, which is a mode of melodic minor (not at all part of the major scale) and in the video Guthrie is first playing in C major, followed by D Dorian (the second mode).
@alfonshomac8 жыл бұрын
+JimJamBanx I thought I heard some dom7ths around and I thought about specifying dominant in the comment but thought that it would make things more obfuscated instead of less, which is why I didn't even name the modes. Considering the main theme, that is to say the part the world hums when you say "the simpsons" has no dominant 7th at least the way I reproduce it in my head, I thought it would give a familiar understanding on how modes would have an impact on the sound of the music. Which, to me, seems way more important and impactful than absolute correctness. My comment is meant as introductory, around construction as opposed to memorising fancy names and patterns. Sort of an engineering approach. Didn't mean to say that _everything_ was in the major scale though I sure implied it, I will correct my wording. About Guthrie playing Dorian, you're totally right, thank you for pointing that out, I will correct it right now. I'd like to think that I was more excited about constructing my comment but I'm pretty sure it's just a silly mistake I made. I will adjust my comment
@alfonshomac6 жыл бұрын
That's cool you took the time to write such a long comment. The way you're explaining is close to the way I learned* and although some people like to memorize, some other's like to construct and I'm the latter. Now, you don't construct every time, just until you internalize the sound. So, the only thing I'd really challenge is the "a little knowledge is far superior to a pattern" part. It's computation speed vs retrieval speed. *I learned using the Jazzology book by Rawlins, where he arranges the modes from brightest to darkest.

Seeing people compare guitarists shows you right off the bat their nescience in the field and how close minded they really are. I was like that a while ago when I first got into independent virtuoso guitarists. It seems like an something you can accomplish, comparing like-playing artists, but its really not. The quicker you learn that comparing artists is like comparing an apple to an orange the sooner you will really be able appreciate and admire music. Its just like Bruce Lee said, don't bad mouth one style, because you could learn a lot from them if you just opened your horizons.

After plotting the notes of the major scale in any key all over the fretboard, there are actually 7 different scale shapes within that framework. Collectively they can be looked at in one big pattern. You can either chose to understand that Guthrie is accentuating the 2nd note of the C-major scale framework, or he's accentuating the first note 'D' of the D-dorian scale within it. All the same notes. The trick is anticipating key changes in improvisation & knowing where the framework moved.

The Super Locrian scale is an altered scale. It's the 7th mode of the Melodic Minor. It differs from a normal Locrian mode in the fact that all of the degrees are flattened (except tonic, obviously)whereas regular Locrian has a Perfect Fourth. Works well over altered dominant chords. As far as I know, Super Locrian is the only "Super" mode. However, there are other similar scales which can be used over altered dominant chords that share the same quality.

The tonic chord of D Dorian is Dm, usually extended as some kind of minor 7th or 9th chord. So, Dm7 or Dm9 or any other simillar extention.

modes are minor or major as such, this is ionian mode (when playing over the first chord progression in C major) which is as you say a major scale, but when he plays it over the second progression (D minor) playing the notes of what was C ionian is also D Dorian, they share the same notes as each other and only sound different when the chord progression is changed, i hope that helped

Because it consists only of alternating between a C5 and a G/C5, which means there are only two actual notes in the backing track. You can play any basic mode (in C) on top of it that has those two notes (C and G), which basically means any mode except the Locrian.
