Thanks for this video. So helpful. Are there any books/studies on octotonic scales. Seventh chords pairing?

[@ric771612]

Hi Mikko thanks for all this info very usefull! You have a beautiful sound, is your guitar stock or modded and what amp are you playing? Cheers

[@Mikkokosmos]

Thanks. Nothing done to the guitar except a nice set up. Amps are just a Tanglewood acoustic amp and a Quilter 101 in stereo

[@joeknipes9567]

Does the Bergonzi Hexatonics book put the triads together as a six note scale versus the other books which keep the triads separate?

[@Mikkokosmos]

No but the books have slightly different takes on triad pairs. In the video I give an overview of the concepts.

[@vecernicek2]

I can't wrap my head around triad pairs for improv. Yeah, I get the theory, but in practice any time I tried to use this in practice it sounded like an exercise. Any tips?

[@Mikkokosmos]

Same with any patterns. You practice patterns but when you actually play music you don't want to think about patterns. That's why you have to know the stuff so well that you can do whatever you want with scales, triads or whatever it is. I think 😊

[@oldreddragon1579]

Jordan Klemons seems to have th best approach.

[@vecernicek2]

@@Mikkokosmos Thanks. It's just that I don't seem to have so much struggle with other types of material. When I started practicing chord tones, and later approaches and enclosures, it had massive effect on my playing quite quickly. It sort of clicked. But this stuff is hard for my brain to absorb somehow. Will keep trying :)

Interesting source material. Thanks

Thank you so much Mikko all your job is GOLD!

Thank you very much!! I needed this.

The Star Wars you’re hearing is the counter harmony from Mars Bringer of War from Holst that inspired John Williams’ Imperial March!

[@Mikkokosmos]

ohh! Makes sense

[@chrisvasseur5759]

Hi thank you for all you do for us One question : which loop pedal do you use please Cheers

[@bobzullo8050]

Another great lesson Mikko! So many interesting ideas. Thank you!

[@Mikkokosmos]

glad you like it

[@rodolfoamaralguitar]

Since each mode has 7 different triad pairs it would be useful an app to list all of them in all keys with the generated intervals in relation to the root.

[@pangeaproxima3681]

The 2nd concept...

[@Mikkokosmos]

?

[@pangeaproxima3681]

@@Mikkokosmos Oh, I meant the 2nd concept, the second book _Triad Pairs For Jazz_ was a favorite one indeed. Beautiful line at _...let me do that again..._ 14:35. Jerry Bergonzi can be a bit too academic.

[@kingofskateop]

Hi Mikko, I appreciate the insightful information you provided. I have a question about the numerous important books on chord voicings. When studying, do you typically follow a linear approach by completing a book from start to finish, or do you prefer to focus on specific sections that resonate with you from various books? Thank you!

[@Mikkokosmos]

Depends on the book :) I prefer books that you can play through like a method book but that's not always the case

[@kriptacyavel]

Hello Mikko, First of all, thank you for all the work you do, your natural way of explaining things. I always take great pleasure in using your explanations to enrich my culture and my guitar skills. I live in France and I would be delighted if one day you were in the area so we could meet for a jam... Here I would like to know if you could do an improvisation lesson on the song 'ELM' by Mr Richie BEIRACH . Many thanks again for your work and see you soon!

[@Mikkokosmos]

Merci. Yes Elm is a great suggestion

[@RandyBakkelund]

Which of these books include tablature?

[@Mikkokosmos]

The Sid Jacobs book I think

[@richardp0]

Great lesson Mikko. I don't have all of those books so I thought I'd post a complete list of all triad pairs. Notice there are all of the combinations of C with D, Db and Gb as expected. Also there are a couple with C and A which might be overlooked in some sources. They too have their own distinctive sounds. C+/D+, C+/DΔ, C-/D♭+, CΔ/DΔ, C-/D-, CΔ/D-, C+/D-, CΔ/D♭+, CΔ/G♭Δ, C-/G♭-, C-/DΔ, CΔ/G♭-, C°/D♭+, C-/AΔ, C°/D-, C°/AΔ, C-/D♭Δ, C-/D°, C°/D♭Δ, CΔ/D°, C°/D♭-, C°/D°, C+/D♭+, CΔ/D♭Δ, C-/D♭-, C°/D♭°

[@Mikkokosmos]

Oh I see Cdim with A!? Hmmm interesting

[@richardp0]

Yes. Also C minor and A major. Makes a great A altered sound. @@Mikkokosmos

Have you done a video on Gary Campbell’s “Connecting Jazz Theory” Mikko … ? 🤔🤔 Happy New Year - your videos are BRILLIANT! 👏👏👏

[@rickclick8359]

I guess you have to find your favorite combinations and stick with those or it would be overwhelming.
