A quickish run through how I play bittersweet symphony in DADGAD tuning with a bit about left and right hand techniques. Hope it’s useful 👍🏻 Link to vid of me playing it through: • Bittersweet Symphony (... Cheers A
Really cool version of this song. I'm just starting to venture into alternate tunings , DADGAD being one of the easier ones to tackle. This video gives me a nice jumping in point. Thanks so much Andrew for posting this , i've gotten a lot from just this video. Cheers & keep playing !
What a treat typed in dadgad and up this came .A loit for me take in at my level of playing, but such a great sound and very well explained. Thanks for taking the time to share 👏👏
Amazing and very interesting music🎶 video🎥.. Super like👌👌👌.. So peaceful and fun to listen. Thanks for sharing.. Do keep posting Warm regards and best wishes The UnknownManCub 👍😎👨🏭
Is it true that your arrangement is based on the D mixolydian & blues hybrid scale? This would explain why this song sounds bluesy and has a C instead of a C#
Good question Juul - I ll be totally honest and say I don’t really know what scales this uses - I came up with this from playing around with the chords but in dadgad tuning and then trying different little variations. It s a good exercise to try and figure out the string arrangement part of the original song in this tuning. Thanks for commenting!
Yeah I'd look at it as D mixo with D blues penta tensions (F: the b3 instead F# at times). Both have the b7: C. The last chord G/B. V, II, IV(9), I. But I'm a keyboarder tryin dadgad :) nice vid!
