Can you point me in the direction of the video going over BH half step rules etc that are featured in this video? Even title name would be great. Thanks 🙏🏻
@@dsg_studio you should put out some books. I much prefer having stuff in physical book format away from the distractions of a computer. I’d buy them all but im delighted I’ve found your channel.
@ralphthomson2680 funny you should mention that! I'm actually working on a phrase book as we speak. There'll be somewhere between 30-40 phrases for ii-V and other progressions complete with fingering and picking suggestions. Possibly some analysis of a few selected phrases and some instructions on how to incorporate them into your own language. Stay tuned. Hope to have that up for sale before year's end.
@alvarorojas225 my pleasure! Glad you found it helpful! What about it was most illuminating for you? Anything you'd want to see expanded on in future content?
Thank you so much for this lesson. Although am a sax player , this lesson has taught me what to focus on after many years of rigmarole buying countless book and online lessons. I finally got it especially the pivot. Many thanks once again.
I like what you're doing over here, man. This is super well put together. Staying consistent will really pay off in the futute. I can see this channel blowing up soon. Off to practice! 😂
Fantastic !!I love that .But can you explain , what are the positions of the 3 others positions in each set of strings for the arpeggios . Thanks a lot for all your good work
Ah man I'm sorry to hear that. If this feels too difficult that might mean you need some more time with just the major scales and the arpeggios or simpler sequences. You can do this but just might not be quite ready yet! 🙏
Hi David . Thanks a lot . Now I'm learning bebop dominant scale with his arpeggios . Have I to stop that and the best is it to learn the system of Barry Harris???? Thanks for all you give
@patrickcaron5929 I wouldn't get hung up on best or worst. It all leads to the same place so it's whatever clicks for you. I personally love Barry's approach. It's all very clear and musical
@djmileski not a straight ahead record but I'm a sideman in a fusion group currently. You can find us on Spotify: sicnarf. Our first EP will be releasing in August. Right now just have a single up
@djmileski not for the Band but the composer. Here's the link to the single ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9gwoFRg__2k.htmlsi=rlB5wIl5vSCGd_xq
This is great, excellent explanations, practice advice and all. If you want to take it to another level, given that you are targeting beginner or intermediate players, you should add a section in the end where you use it to improvise over a well known standard (not just generic changes) and walk us through exactly the way you are thinking when composing/improvising a solo/etude over that standard. Not the whole song, but 8-12 bars or something. Just my two cents and a part that I am always missing in these types of YT videos. Best of luck and thanks for teaching us!
Hi! First of all thank you so much for this amazing content. I'm into Barry's stuff thanks to my teacher and so i'm getting pretty used to this kind of movements. Still i fatigue to put them into forms to have chops to use over every tune that respect a particular form. I'm getting to it, slow and steady. It would be nice to see this stuff into a blues, soloing or comping, doesn't matter. Thank you again
@cuoredibue4180 I've got a few videos about putting some of his different concepts into practice in those contexts. Have a peak around the channel and I think you'll find what you're looking for. Thanks for watching!
when you mentioned the mixolydian mode in the beginning it really clicked for me! finally some progress in relating the dominant 7 to something i'm at least a little familiar with.
Really love your videos to create more smooth fretboard runs with a loose and light touch. It always shows me that it is always more about in music than what you play more the how matters. Greetings from Germany! Keep it up <3
Cool video. Question about exercise 1. You say "resolving to some chord from the Cmajor6 diminished scale." Does that mean you treat the flatted six as a scale degree and, if so, does that mean there are eight diatonic chords? For example, is the triad chord built from the second degree a regular D minor triad, or does it become diminished, because the third above the F natural is now A flat?
So you could do that but I'm sort of mixing the major scale and the maj6 diminished in these examples. I especially like playing with the minor IV that's in the 6 diminished scale.
@dsg_studio are you using the tonic / dominant approach Harris uses to build harmony off of the diminshed 6 scale - i.e., Imaj6 and V7b9 - or are you using other chords?
Yeah that's me! I haven't put out an album under my own name yet but I play in a fusion group called SicNarf you can find on Spotify. Thanks for your interest!
I did a video on this concept a few weeks ago. Watch this video to learn more. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IOoyVW8E1bY.html It's a fascinating concept with lots of depth in application.
