2 Pentatonic Scales you NEED

Listening from Ashland, Oregon. I'm a guitarist who gets a lot of inspiration from your teaching.

This channel puts out gems ,always!!! This is the real deal. Thx so much.

As player for 45 years who learned this sound from some old Chicago blues cats I think of this a little differently and it broadens the use away from a set 5 note pentatonic. The “major blue note” is the minor third, a passing tone used in conjunction with the major third. Added to a major pentatonic created the major blues scale. Key is that it is passing tone up to major third or down from major third. The “minor blue note” is what most refer to as the “blue note”, flat 5. added to a minor pentatonic creates the minor blues scale. But key is that it is passing tone up to 5th or down to 4th. These two notes played over a Dom7 will give either a major or minor bluesy feel. In this lesson what are two “pentatonic” scales can also be seen as Major 6 arpeggio and a Dominant 7 arpeggio with the added “major blue note” passing tone. Again this is the minor 3rd -> major 3rd. Whatever else is played, that passing sounded is one of the key sounds to the blues. Only stipulation is this is all for playing over dominant 7. If playing over Minor 7 chord you avoid the major 3rd of course.

[@rodrigobertoa5916]

Kind of... the use of the major 3rd as passing tone to resolve inmediatly in 1 or 5 sounds great ( to me of course )

[@dankruvand4937]

Another great lesson. Clear audio and keyboard pics so we can see the shapes you're playing. No PDF notes needed, just follow along is all the fun I need. Got challenging at the end, but if I get over halfway, that feels like success to me! Thanks Peter!

[@DavidStJames11]

This is the PERFECT lesson for ME at this time in my development. Practical Tools, useful and fun. For My own toolbox, taught at a normal pace. I enjoyed not having to wait for the talented teacher to over explain every finger until the video becomes too painful to endure. (Sorry ). But you’re in a natural groovy pace that I found in sync with my brain. It made it more fun to play follow the leader using the most basic and important notes. Singing the lines making sure you can sing before you play..Pure gold right there. Lots of gems in this video. I came for the piano lesson, piano lesson, which was great, and as a guitarist, singer, songwriter etc these ideas transfer like it was meant to be. Easy and fun and useful. Thank you, now exuse me please, I’m gonna play along with this video again 35x in a row. See ya on the other side 👍

I've loved jazz for over 60 years as a listener-who-understood-nothing. (and as a wannabe musician) I never came across such a clear tutorial before. Thank you very much.

[@carlosmiranda6419]

Another wonderful lesson, thanks a lot Peter!!

[@howardcoleman4748]

You are doing great to me I lost my money to a scam years ago and with the accidents I had I don't think I can afford the money to buy your course so I hope that you are still here 🙏🌈 peace guys and everyone involved thanks for the KZbin clips your great teachers

[@Middle-C]

Brilliant Peter. Right on the button. Congratulations to all the team..

[@psunie]

Wow!!! What an amazing tutorial to teach about the blues!!! The white elephant in the room was finally desmythified!!

So happy to have found your tutorial tonight! I’m classically trained and have studied some Jazz improv.

I noticed something - I feel like your teaching style moves fast enough that a beginner might have a hard time keeping up with you (without the PDF, at least) - but you're teaching relatively rudimentary concepts (like a pentatonic scale variation), that someone, if they were at a musical level to be able to follow along at the pace you teach, would likely already know about in some capacity. I think it's useful for someone like me who feels as though they have a good grasp on ear, theory, and playing but wishes to change their vocabulary - but I feel like it will be relatively inaccessible to people who take a little bit longer to hear things out or be able to "assume" some of the things us musicians typically learn to just "know." Am I explaining this well? Not sure. Something I noticed... This goes for some of the podcast episodes too. I don't want you to spoonfeed us though - maybe my demographic of musical level is the one you're looking to reach. Thanks - regardless, all of Open Studio's videos have been more than inspiring and helpful in my journey!

[@heyhey3684]

Actually for me it is very good because I can follow pretty easily since I am a musician, but not very familiar with jazz, so I'm very thankful he is not explaining and waiting for every single detail a beginner might need, this can be unbearable over a long time

[@afxmnstr]

Welcome to jazz. 🎉

[@doumbe.ewande]

I agree. Some teachers show how good they are, others help students. He shows how well he's understood this or that, as if taking an exam and demonstrating how well he's mastered the concepts and techniques. It's good for self-esteem, but not very useful for students.

[@Photologistic]

That’s a bit harsh when he has a pdf this time.

[@johnleiter7672]

Watching from Jeffrey's bay South Africa Away from my piano thats im my tiny cabin on the north west coast of oregon Love your channel Totally agree with last post - one quick but short layout of scales / chords a bit slower for this old stoner would make mental absorption easier Love what you guys are putting out here🙏

[@אמאאדמה-ב2ד]

Hello from Israel

[@slatebook2384]

In my books, these are not pentatonics per se, you use them as such and that's great. Including the appoggiatura as a distinctive note transforms this melodic movement in a five note scale, indeed. Still the ear knows that it is an appoggiatura trying to nicely lure you away from the major third, while preparing the fourth degree (7th). It's also the b13 on the dominant (triton). Simply put, It's a tension. However, technically it's a lot simplier, it's just the notes of F6 with an appoggiatura on the third on which you insist, with a melodic start on the fifth. On the fourth degree it's just the notes of Bb7 with an appoggiatura on the third on which you insist, with a melodic start on the fifth. If someone as another explanation please comment I'll be happy to have another insight on this. - First "pentatonic" at 12'00''. In F it's F G# A C D F (G# or Ab depending on the context) - Second "pentatonic" at 18'45". Played on the fourth degree: Bb C# D F Ab (the on;ly difference with the first "pentatonic" is the dominant 7, Ab, instead of the sixth, G) By the way, you talk too much. This video could have been less than 1 mn, demo included. Anyways, I had to think it through, so thank you.

[@careyshane3865]

[@lawrencer4912]

It seems as almost all the younger people playing jazz are children of the people who join country clubs…the financially elite

[@marquee-moon]

This is very relevant to pentatonic scales.

[@brucejeric6701]

You put a pdf out there, but I can’t print it. WHY NOT????

[@colincotter6]

it sends a link to a pdf embedded in the webpage. First you have to open the pdf in your pdf viewer (right click it or something), then it can be printed.

[@eliahsolstice]

Cant handle the level of adverts anymore. Great content, but EVERY 3 minutes, 2 adverts? Just too much

[@maestro2033]

I’M confused one minute your saying use pentatonics, then you say you don’t need pentatonics and these vids are two days apart.🤯
