Triads - Technique Lesson

[@edgarwalk5637]

Obla-di , Obla-da, life goes on, brah. Love your lessons!

[@rikstavale]

Another excellent lesson! You're right, making the connection between scales, triads & tunes they are played in is enormously helpful. Thanks again for your efforts to help us noobs get going. Also, I'd be really disappointed if you stopped the jokes, it really defines you. cheers.

Great lesson. I like doing triads and arpeggios.

[@fiddl3hed]

+nyal walker thanks :)

[@nyalwalker6372]

Have a question: When you do a triad and continue to the next tonic, say G0, G2, D0 then D3 then come back down D3, D1, G3, G0 is that an allowed arpeggio? or is it better to do D3, D0, G2, G0?

[@jasonkleinberg9790]

not sure i understand the question. a G major triad would be G0-2-D0, then D3-A1-3. it would be the same going up and down. is that what you were asking?

[@nyalwalker6372]

Thanks for the reply. I guess what what I'm asking is: If you start with any tonic, can you go both directions with a third and fifth and still have correct triads? I take it that you can't. It only works going up scale?

[@fiddl3hed]

correct, you start with the tonic, go up a third and then the fifth. you can play these notes in different orders and invert them. but to FIND AND FIGURE OUT the triad, start with the tonic and go up.

I have a question. Near the end of the video, when showing notes from Ashokan Farewell, You say "open A", but you are playing the A on the G string, then D0-2. That A on the G string doesn't fit into the 1,3,5 pattern. Yet it's still in the D major triad? It does sound right though. Just wondering...
