Diminished Scale Triads with Adam Maness

[@SamMcGarrityIsOnYoutube]

Laughed super hard after "the lick" over EbMaj followed by "A little bit of language that I wrote on my own".

[@MomLAU]

I noticed this also.

[@genghismccann7659]

That's the first time I've understood the logic of the triads within the diminished! Light bulb moment!

[@davehill154]

Thank you Adam! Another awesome lesson to help us Piano Fighters level up. Nice deadpan delivery @ 11:25 introducing The Lick over Ebmaj7 as "just a little bit of language that I completely wrote...on my own." LOL

[@c7b5b9]

Adam thank you for simplifying the outside sound with the dim scale triad system.... fantastic!!

[@bruceholms]

You took the impossible out the diminished scale triads and made playing them over the V7 possible -- all the while adding the incredible "double triads". Thanks, Adam.

Who are the 3 people who disliked this video, and how would they teach this same concept? Hey haters, step up and help musicians all over the world by posting your original lessons.

[@victoza9232]

Why call them "haters"? It probably has nothing to do with hate.

[@welc0me0ne]

It’s hatred because it’s not love! If you dislike something , and can offer or further the conversation! You should do so …

[@cjsteinway5014]

Okay then, i’ll rephrase; “Hey, Dislikers, step up and help musicians all over the world…”

[@uelude]

Calm yourself down. Consider a therapist if seeing a number on KZbin is getting to be too much for you. Or consider putting your phone down. It's that kind of hysterical snowflake behaviour that got dislikes removed. Unnecessary.

Brilliance disguised as simplicity. These lessons are always very approachable even for a beginner. It never ceases to amaze me how much details matter in jazz (and other music too), and if you have a strong grasp of the flavors of the language, you can be incredibly clear to the listener just with a few chords and melody notes. Thanks again Adam!

[@thelonious-dx9vi]

I like the half tritone sub look, that's cool. Major/minor triads around the diminished cycle off the root of the dominant. All notes in all triads in-scale. Awesome. This helps me too, to focus more on specific reusable language. I spend way too much time turning up every stone, thinking I'm developing some big abstract palette to draw from. Which I guess is true to some extent. But I need to focus more on a shorter menu of actual things I like to play, and play them. Cheers, you guys are great.

Adam Manes is in my opinion the Best Teacher you can find putting all the pieces together...Bringing you for maybe clicking thar little nice shiny notification button The fastest to our Goal" " to learn All events up from 40 s 50 60 s 70s( Herbie) 80 s maybe Chick and electrick band fuison stuff and 2010s & 2020 Clayton drills etc the New Great players Corey Groove Henry( vpicings Lolo)

[@josepmascaro4524]

Great job!

[@clintjones9848]

I think about the half whole dim scale as lydian dominant with the 9th split into a flat 9 and sharp 9. The whole half dim scale is even easier. It's just melodic minor with the 5th split into a flat 5 and sharp 5.

[@docbobster]

That's a very useful way to think about the half whole, esp since I use lydian dominant a lot.

[@clintjones9848]

Thx yep. I've had command of the main 7 tone substitution scales for years but just never got control of the dim scales. I thought ok it's time to quit slacking and friggin learn them. I thought I best learn scales by thinking of what scale degree each note is so I came up with that.

[@marthabaartz8517]

Thanks for this new angle. Something to sink my teeth into. Very cool!

[@s.kurt1011]

11:21👀👀

[@iluvjazz7]

Good Stuff and excellent demonstrations!

[@georgehiggins1320]

woah thinking about it like it's the 7th chord plus the tritone sub makes so much sense holy crap.

[@russelljames1582]

The lick returns!!!

[@StalloneSvenska]

Awesome lesson Adam. It seems like a nice benefit with this is also that you get 3 other keys ‘for free’ when you learn these patterns over the Bb7 because the of use the diminished scale..

[@chrishercules3526]

Thanks Adam!

[@emilgilels]

Great stuff! Thanks, Adam!

[@clancywiggam]

Thanks Adam. Hours of fun.

[@CrossBonesAlex]

Valuable information as usual❤

[@robinreidmusic]

I am a tenor player and loved this lesson. Funny I know they are options but I really the E major sound . Thanks

[@patrickmilano4221]

This video is incredible. your channel rocks

[@anicetjoy5456]

Thanks for this video. It will definitely take my playing to the next level

[@nicolasbonnet9638]

Excellent! 5U Adam

[@stevesnelling7615]

It's worth noting: anything that you can play inside the 1/2-W scale can move in minor thirds and still stay in the scale. Holy symmetrical octatonic madness!!

[@Lupo33]

thank you so much

[@gregdouras8796]

Really great lesson. Easy to play that gets into more advanced music theory. This language reminds me of Thelonious Monk's sound.

[@hlpianin]

It was very helpful lesson for me!! Thank you very much!

[@dominicellis1867]

A really interesting idea is a triple diad meaning playing three 2 note shapes which has the same amount of notes that 2 triads has. So for example: on Bb7 you could play a G major diad then a Bb major diad then a Db minor diad resolving to F (the 9 of Ebmaj/min). With that you could even imply both diminished and augmented harmony by transposing by both major and minor thirds. This is a great way to extend a dominant sound especially over a V vamp like in Caravan or the bridge to Stella.

[@nativesonno.1113]

so useful!

[@Tzaltochnie1]

This is great 👍 thanks

[@gabrielmirandamartinez8451]

Great stuff!

[@reglagirl5802]

I liked the repetition after you explained the concept

[@richardolson8651]

Love this stuff Thanks

[@brianwolle2509]

so good.

[@bryandickerson5365]

Yeah man, sometimes I just kill me too ;^) Seriously, very nice little dive into the world of diminished!

[@andresgandara]

haha nice way to smuggle "the lick" in there.

[@samcockrell]

I love the way it sounds and how the simple triad can be a great weapon but I’m kinda new to jazz can you actually play and say what you’re doing over each chord thanks for the lesson😎🎸🌈

[@mitchelledels9762]

The dominant diminished scale is used by all jazz musicians and is NUMBER 1 PRIORITY IN JAZZ C Db F# Eb E A F# G C A Bb Eb

[@flober1970]

Thx ! So Monkish/bebopish !

[@Statist0815]

Michael Brecker one of the greatest Saxophonists ever. I miss him.

[@Zacharysandilands]

similar language from when u recently looked into Aaron parks on Solar.

[@paolosignorile6137]

which course belongs this lesson on your website? to be very interesting, but not understand which to be

[@CoreyGemme]

Interesting way to think about this. It would be helpful However if you’re encouraging people to play along that when you comp that you always play a full dominant seventh chord on the second half of the first bar. Or else our major triad substitute is out of context :-)

[@ReedBass]

"that's just a bit of language that I completely wrote on my own" Looool!! I wonder how many people caught that?

[@paolosignorile6137]

great!! sorry .....this example is for 2,5,1 major!! for 2,5,1 minor?

[@gitarwoman2]

How to apply to a minor ii V? Attempted triads on B-Ab-F-D but not hearing it...

[@avivpardes]

Is it right to do that too on voicing?

[@hillsbeverlycreative5087]

Turtles flying over Istanbul !

Is that the lick?
