📍NOTE: Many people have commented that at 1:15 I call the interval between the 6th and 7th degree of Harmonic minor a “minor third” rather than an “Aug 2nd”. I understand why strictly speaking “Aug 2nd” is the correct name for that interval however, I thought using that name would unnecessarily add confusion for people who aren’t familiar with the difference between a ‘minor 3rd’ and a ‘aug 2nd’. That said, perhaps I should have put an on-screen annotation acknowledging the ‘aug 2nd’ at 1:15.
@PlanetoftheDeaf5 жыл бұрын
When I first read this comment I got really confused, why is an interval named after August 2nd? Why not November 23rd :-)

What I would call the diatonic rule. Second interval between notes with adjacent letters. Like B flat to C sharp in the harmonic scale, hence an augmented second.

I think they key to understanding how The Beatles used "Modes" without understanding what modes were is that they simply used chords that were outside of the actual Major/Minor keys and they used notes in those chords.

Unless I missed something, it's interesting that most of the examples (safe for the final guitar note in Plug-in Baby) tend to approach the harmonic minor as a semitone "dip" from the root, instead of approaching the root from below to accentuate the three semitone jump.
@DavidBennettPiano5 жыл бұрын
'Girl' approaches it from below, but I do see what you mean. Resolving up from the 7th note to the 8th note is so satisfying a resolution that I guess that is why it appears in melodies so often
@LoganAlbright735 жыл бұрын
When approached from below, the sixth degree of the scale is traditionally raised as well to prevent the awkward leap of an augmented second. I think the distinction between harmonic, melodic, and natural minor is somewhat misleading. Classical composers would have regarded it as simply “minor” with alterations added to the sixth and seventh degrees as needed to produce a dominant cadence.
@jyotektosgaimur4 жыл бұрын

“Blend the harmonic minor with the natural minor” This is exactly how I use harmonic minor, and I often use the major V chord resolving to the i chord. I also like to crawl up from the minor 7th to the 1st degree by semitones, hitting the major 7th, if it were c minor the notes would be Bb-B-C. Very well explained video and does a very good job of teaching how the harmonic minor can be used.

A technical point which admittedly doesn’t typically matter much in the real world, but I think it’s worth at least a mention in any discussion of the harmonic minor scale. And speaking of that interval, it occurs in the very last line of Elton John’s “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word”, another good example of a mixture of minor scales.

@DavidBennettPiano5 жыл бұрын
Good question. Generally, when I think of a topic I want to cover, I will find a way to do it! However, the two most common setbacks are (a) lack of research and (b) copyright strikes! As for research... some topics I find hard to explain (like the recent 'Polyrhythm' video). It can takes me weeks and weeks to research and write a script that I'm happy with... often because that particular topic is pushing the limits of my own knowledge! As for copyright... if I want to talk about a song, I need to find a way to recreate it in a way that can get past the copyright content ID system. You may have noticed that all of the songs in this video were either isolated vocals set to my own piano playing or a live version. If I can't think of a good way to recreate a song that I want to talk about, I can't really talk about it!

That Eilish chord progression reminds me of the middle-8 from "Here, There and Everywhere." I mean the notes used, not the progression itself. "Here, There and Everywhere" quickly goes from D to Eb to Bb, but then goes from Gm to Cm to D, back to Gm.

It makes it all the more amazing that Adrian Belew was right there with Fripp on the original. This piano rendition is fantastic! Thank you.

The music freezing to show the function of the chord is a vrey very good idea. Brilliant,
