  • Yes, you MUST know how the notes relate, but you need a solid foundation first to be able to relate from. Eventually you should play how you speak. FREE. I say that you should learn the forms as I guide, next get to know the flavor of the scale then forget it all....ZEN in a way. Make music. Yes, all scale degress and music is relative or related to something in some way or form, if it was not, what would we call it?? Pizza...Thanks for your comment. Great to have thinkers out there.

  • No it's a sandwich! LOL! Informative thanks!

  • So, In C Lydian, you gonna play the sames notes (ABCDEF#G) but then you have to think "6th, 7th, Tonic (or Root), 2nd, 3rd, diminished 5th". The main difference is that you're not going to play the same chords, and not emphasize the same degrees. Playing a solo is like writing a sentence, you know. You don't just play the notes up and down, you must try to understand how they relates to each other.

  • It's like the grammar : there is the form of the word, that never changes, and the function, that changes depending of the context. It's the same, here. There is the notes (A B C D E...) and their function : Root, 2nd, minor 3rd, perfect 4th, perfect 5th. You play A dorian, you gonna play "A B C" thinking "Root, 2nd, minor 3rd", and you gonna emphasize the notes that defines the Dorian Mode : the Root (A), 6th (F#), minor 7th (G). Not enough place, I post another message.

  • yet again they just al the same as the ydian ones would you please explain to me why they are like this

  • awesome you sound fantastic!!
