Been running this video 20 + times. Stopping, restarting. Taking notes. You are my 'go to man' from now on, Warren. Thank you.

[@alvaroluiscruz2699]

The best video ever Warren. Make God fill you up with all his blessings.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Thank you 😊🙏🏾

[@jeanlouistoan4663]

The best professor remains warren

[@Ontherightpath_2024]

I always come back to Warren, when I don't understand what others are explaining. 10/10!

[@jeanlouistoan4663]

The best professor ever is in the place. May GOD bless you 🙏🏽

[@tantif1]

This is excellent. Correct fingering in each key is the challenge for me - not just in playing the scales but in improvising!!

[@cynthiastory8603]

Hey Bro. Warren, this tutorial is helping me a lot to reach my goal to play Gospel and Jazz better. I mentioned to you before how much I want to be able to play Jazz piano better. Understanding these Scales helps me to the possibilities to create my own style and see my voicing chords options. As you"ve said in some of your prior videos if you learn the fundamentals you're not limited.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Thank you. Glad to know it’s helping 😊🙏🏾

[@bmccmusicministry2732]

You're so clear in your explaining. Masterful teaching. Thank you!

[@davionpatten6503]

Your teaching is excellent sir Warren

[@irt1971]

Take the relative minor - for C it would be A. The A minor blues starting from C is the C major blues! These videos are goldmines, thank you so much. I like your playing because I play similarly (tho not as good)

Yet another "Aha!!" video from you! Thank you SO MUCH Warren!

[@Ahijahprince]

This is my first time here. I'm a reggae man who has recently branched out to the blues. Today, I decided to check out some Gospel-- and found this lesson. I was not disappointed, and have subscribed. You know your stuff, and that unmistakable Jamaican accent still comes through! Blessup!

I stay learning here...i didn't know there was a major blues. Thanks.

[@AngelWest58]

"major blues scale" is just the"blues" scale of the relative minor. "C major blues scale" is really just the "A blues scale" ...

[@olivieraka3991]

Sir, I'm always amazed watching your video. There are so many scales in music. You happen to know each of them. I know all my major scales. I know how to form the minor of each key. But I have yet to memorize them.. Sir you are good👍👍

[@brianramz6681]

Warren um open for correction what i have realised is that when u play a major scale u are also playing the relative minor at the same time eg c major and a minor scale when u play when u play a pentatonic this is still the same relative minor eg Cmajor pentatonic =Aminor pentatonic

[@leoreyes8651]

thanks much for this bro! blues scale.. things learned

[@josephyagappan1896]

Thank you for.. very useful.. Even in grade 8 only one blue scale is there.( minor blue).Now I have learned one more... Major blue..

[@lyndanyame7105]

Thank you

[@paulpulati9613]

HIya Warren, Love your work. I know it was just an oversight, but at about 10 minutes in this lesson, you called the A minor pentatonic the 1-b3-4-5-and 6. But the 6 should read b7, as it is the flat 7 of A Major, just as the b3 is of A Major. This lesson is valuable for us to learn to improvise over gospel chords and really dive into the gospel sound. Thanks.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

That’s for the catch Paul 😊👌🏾

Hi Warren I'm new to your channel bt really like what you teaching

Yesss that was gonna be my request. Thx

[@shamooorr4324]

Big up yourself general

[@priscillastilwell2972]

I know you have a ton of videos out. Do you have specific examples of how you use each of these scales with gospel songs? I'd love if you could point me in the right direction to get more context.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Hmmmm I may, but honestly, I don’t remember lol. Check the intermediate and advanced playlist on the channel. If I did cover them individually, it would be in one of those play list.

[@kishorevictor3697]

Excellent presentation and you made it so easy to understand and apply in practical playing 👏👏👏

What are the chord qualities of the chords in the blues scales?

It’s a video course on my website pianolessonwithwarren.com

[@Stiktriks]

Bro !!!! I never know there was 2 blues scales ⚖️. Thought there was just one ☝🏾😅. It’s good to be educated eh 😂.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Thanks for watching 😊👌🏾

[@josephrodrigues9818]

Am I getting this right: did you mean to say the 1,2,b3,3, 5,6 is the Minor Blues in this lesson at minute about 7.23 seconds? You started out saying the Minor blues is 1,b3,4,#4, 5,b7 ?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

I may have misspoke, that’s the major blues

[@lalegendemusicl.l.m4089]

[@DREWSKIBOY1]

Major and minor pentatonic the same 🤯🤯🤯

[@axelrivera6546]

Warren, Ussually I have problems to run up with scales, but running down I do very well.... when I make some arpeggios running up I do very well, but running down I’m weak yet :(

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

You want to practice scales both ascending and descending.

[@alexalex-nf5qi]

QUESTION!! When switching from the 1 chord to the 4 (C to F) do you use the F scale on the F chord or the stick with the C Blues/Pentatonic scale on the 4 chord?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Stick with the C Blues

[@labradog05]

hey man! really like your content, quiick question tho, is fingering important in doing the scale?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Mark Joseph Pagsuyuin yes, very important. Good fingering is what will allow you to play fast and clean.

[@labradog05]

Piano Lesson with Warren do you have any videos concerning the positioning of fingers in every min penta scale on all twelve keys? If no do you have a video talking about the technique? Thank you very much! 🙏 ill check again on your videos and try ro find a solution

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Mark Joseph Pagsuyuin I have a tutorial that covers the finger for all the major pentatonic scales, it’s on my website here; pianolessonwithwarren.com/courses/the-pentatonic-scale-fingerings/

[@BlessedOne686]

Hey Warren, does ur midi player work on mobile phones? I can’t hear anything?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Unfortunately no well, and not at all on Selene mobile devices. The mobile browsers currently isn’t powerful enough to run the play. Hopefully in the near future the mobile tech will catch up.

[@jeremieaboghe3388]

Hey warren , i don't know if you already made a tutorial on finger speed exercises, but i understand scales but i need to work on my fingering.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Speed is something you gradually work, practice your scales to a metronome and each week you increase that speed in small increments. This is how you work on speed.

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

What about that?

[@hortencepauni9704]

@@PianoLessonwithWarren What are the chords derived from the blue scale?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

@@hortencepauni9704 we don’t think of the blues s cake that way. The blues scale is used primarily for improvisation. We don’t “play” in the blues key as we wound the minor key or the major key.

[@hortencepauni9704]

@@PianoLessonwithWarren Oohh, I see. Thank you so much for clarifying that to me

[@beedeekenny9250]

Can you pls explain why in a video by another pianist said the minor pentatonic is 1 3 4 5 7 Your is 1 b3 4 5 b7 What's really wrong?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Beedee Kenny unfortunately I cannot speak to another video and that they teach, you’d need to ask them that.

[@beedeekenny9250]

@@PianoLessonwithWarren I can now understand the idea of the video and yours... It goes thus: The video explained using Aminor scales. The area where I got confused was that: 1 b3 4 5 b7 ( of Major scales ) 1 3 4 5 7 ( of natural Minor scales ) Conclusion: The other video showing pentatonic scales from natural minor scales was right.. Your video showing same pentatonic scales from Major scales was as well right... Thanks.....

Sir,Good morning, Even though Major Pentatonic Blue and Minor Pentatonic Blue, another three pentatonic Blues are there.(1)Suspended Pentatonic Blue :Notes:C,D(flat ),D, F, G,B(flat ),C.(2)Scottish Pentatonic Blue :Notes:C,D,F,G,G#,A,C.(3)Minor Pentatonic #5 Blue:Notes:C, D#,F,G#,A#,B,C. Sir, This the only information.

[@manassehasante6744]

Hello please I want to understand this, if someone says he’s playing in the ‘key’ of Fminor what key is that cos I know there are 12keys from C to B and their respective signatures and u can only make minors out of each them when they turn into chords. So why do we say the key of Fminor?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Unfortunately this question is rather complex to explain in a comment. You need to look up videos exposing tonality in music to understand the difference between major keys and minor keys

[@balthasarte5649]

What about adding a b7 to the minor blues scale? Is is still the minor blues scale?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

Not sure I understand. The minor blues and major blues is basically the same scale, it’s just the root note change.

[@balthasarte5649]

@@PianoLessonwithWarren Oh, this is what I mean: 1 b3 4 b4 5 7 b7 8 . I've seen the minor blues scale described as that in guitar manuals, with two blue notes, one between the 4 and 5 and the other between the 7 and 8. Could this still be called a blues scale in your experience, or is it some invention that falls outside the genre?

[@PianoLessonwithWarren]

@@balthasarte5649 that some sort of hybrid blues scale which I’m not familiar. The traditional blues is 1 b3 4 #4 5 b7 8. With that said, when playing blues we use all 12 tones of the piano as we’re often introducing other scales based on the chord structure - more advanced form of blues playing. So I can see why the guitar manual may have listed that hybrid.

[@balthasarte5649]

@@PianoLessonwithWarren Thanks man. Actually, I've made a mistake with the notation. I meant to say 1 b3 4 #4 5 b7 7 8.
