"Find the notes you don't like and learn how to make music out of them" Victor's wisdom is profound.

[@TallSomeone]

No one wants to play the notes they don't like. And we shouldn't. The language here gets all tangled. What this just means is to be yourself and if it turns into beauty for you, whether alone or with others, it's fine.

[@spacefertilizer]

TallSomeone hmm. I think Wooten was trying to say that you should try to learn how to play all notes and how to make them fit in in a way that makes them feel like they belong there (or were deliberate) even though “they don’t”.

[@susiemuirhead561]

This guy is so cool! There's a method to his philosophy!

[@Muck-qy2oo]

@@spacefertilizer It's all about just becomming aware of other important aspects, other than just the right notes.

[@SWFanZocker]

What one word?! why does it have to end like that?! i need to know it!

[@thegroovesarge]

Spoiler Alert: Having been to a few of his clinics, what he does is ask the audience what is one word that describes music to them. Every time, they give all these beautiful descriptions "Love, Harmony, Expression, Happy, etc". He then follows with "Nobody ever said "Notes". So why is that what we worry about so much?".

[@olocin3477]

What do you guys think that one word that describes him? I also am interested in everyones answer to that question after they see this.

[@ngkingpui]

thanks Victor and meth181, help so much to totally break the frame which confine us what to play the 12th note repeat the 1st note, actually , we have 11 notes only, even higher chance to have right note, focus on feel and groove is really the KING

[@ngkingpui]

[@davidmclaughlin1974]

Best dude evar....genius.

[@110380michael]

Fantastic lesson.

[@mdspman000]

Not knowing the notes works much easier for a simple example like this. However if you take any number of well known jazz songs that have frequent chords and key changes it becomes just as important to know the notes as it does to choose appropriate phrasing to use combinations of the inside and outside notes. So at some point if you want to play music with more more harmonic content you have to put in the years of work needed to develop your tool set to include both rhythmic ideas and harmonic ideas.

[@PamalkaKarunanayake]

[@iamalpharius9483]

I dont stop hearing the wrong note as WRONG when a proper groove is laid into it. I just stop "Feeling" the note as wrong. Hearing imperfections and accepting it as structurally permissible is totally different than hearing imperfections and being critical and objectionable. Due to being willing to suspend that criticism and allow oneself to be entertained is no different than reading a book or watching a film with a character preformaning a feet of impossibility. For entertainment sake we can tune into anything we are willing to ENJOY. But it always helps to have a charisma like Victor has. And it is wonderful because he knows how to tell us about it in the most human of terms so that the rest of us can be in on that experience with him. Victor can relate the Phenomenology of Music to is all with the greatest of ease because he is so beautifully attuned to the world as a WHOLE experience. Not a single event or series of events strung together to make mental sentences. He can tie it all into one thing, one spirit, one governing principle. . Enjoyment at its simplest. . Thank you Victor. . You have taught me more with one sentence than the world has ever taught me with all those sentences that I tried to string tightly together.

[@voornaam3191]

Could you please summarize that into one sentence? Every word you used is a reference to half a musical world. So, you say half a world and half a world, because half a world and the history of half a world. Stop, this is too much. Your first sentence had three worlds in it, that's six hemispheres, all related to the other five. Why on earth are you saying so much? Do you know you are saying so much? And that was your first sentence only. Aaaargh! The funniest was: but it always helps to have a charisma like Victor. Why on earth is there a BUT in that sentence?! That is so funny, did you do that on purple? Was that the bad note of your comment? How much layers did you add in here? What? More?

All thoughts and sounds of all musicians in the world, and the billions appreciating music, since mankind exists, is that what you think of, when you write the word music? And you write a whole string of words, don't you? Do you have any idea what your words imply? And how we should interpretate them? Man, you write so abstract, I don't know where to begin thinking. Why do you do that? Is the hidden message in the 7th layer of possible interpretations? Like "I woke up this morning with a headache, that wine has almost killed me" is a funny way to say "Good Easter to you all!" ?

[@REALTALKCHANNEL8]

sometimes i wonder if J Dilla watched and learned from Victor lol, the hidden secret on a whole diff level but same theory, I love this video, Wooten is a pure genius of sound, its the love, not the complete focus on theory alone, = musically inclined, like going to school for machine programming but not mechanically inclined, same theory, like being sort of in the blood or not, breaking that barrier of oneness with sound, like a creek or waterfall, nature does not pick notes but makes the most beautiful sounds

[@avalerionbass]

F# used in a G minor scale would make it a harmonic minor. E natural would make it a G dorian.

[@Ocean8881]

The F# would also make it a melodic minor.

[@shepardwallace5300]

"I only know a little theory..." doubtful

[@JustBrewing]

He’s right, he only knows very little...he just said and F# would make the scale Dorian when an F# would make the scale harmonic minor.

[@stefaneduard8169]

@@JustBrewing yep... Although i am sure he meant to say that if he played all the notes naturally except F, then that would make it a major scale (although it is wrong to call it a major scale bc Dorian is a mode, not a scale.)
