Does music from the US sound "weird" to you? Like, does it sound unpleasant or uncomfortable?!
@ayadalhilo
@ayadalhilo 4 года назад
​@@dgates6165 Not at all. The "Major" and the "Minor" scales are part of the set of scales of the Middle East. I think the opposite is more likely. The Middle East scales might sound unpleasant for the western ears, especially the scales with quarter tones. I found one example that a wester band "adopted" the quarter-tone scales: "King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard"... A wonderful band from Australia. Check them on RU-vid!

@@ayadalhilo Interesting! I wouldn't say that type of music sounds unpleasant to me. It is just very different! It sounds totally foreign which, in my opinion, is very cool! The intervals you have in that music, to me, sounds very dissonant and I happen to very much enjoy dissonance in music.

@@ayadalhilo I listen to a lot of metal music that purposely uses dissonant chords to add an "edgy" sound to the music. However, hearing it in middle eastern music as just normal part of the music is really cool! Are there any like.... rock bands from your part of the world? As in, using the same scales and music structure, but with a western song structure?!

@Auf RU-vid nicht an Politik interessiert Ah yes American football which has a much higher rate of concussions and injury overall compared to rugby. Rugby admittedly has higher spinal cord injury rates. Quite frankly it’s stupid to compare the two sports because they’re completely different. The padding in American football actually makes it more aggressive as well, and makes it require less regulation than compared to if there was no padding.

I just watched this video man and my mind is racing - SO GOOD! Thanks so much for making this! I'm a Bangladeshi-American who's super into western classical music and theory, and to be able to learn like this was so enlightening! I especially enjoyed the Balkan part - such a sweet, mellow medium. What fascinated me too, was how the Balkans/Spanish are sort of like that middle between the East and West too - both musically and culturally to an extent too. It's beautiful, everything's beautiful. Thank you for this!

This is a really great video! Thank you so much! I learned more about music theory in this one video than I have in many, many others. So many videos talk about music theory solely from a Western perspective, that western concepts are taken for granted by the people teaching them, and so they never talk about the background, and the wider picture about why it's done that way in the first place. This video really helps give a wider, and broader view of music, that also helps one understand western music theory as well. Thank you!

For me, it is a very interesting subject and your video put more into what I know about what music is. It started, when I wanted to understand why there are 12 notes in western music. And other questions came: there is a gipsy in the underground playing solo on violin improvising for hours, and you can explain how he changes the tonal centre etc. but he goes through from very eastern sounding music to gipsy and to Vivaldi. He doesn't need a backtrack. I started improvising solo on my guitar ( only one rule - play what you hear in your head) interesting. I also read about that scientists think we could be better with 19 step or (31 that's too much to handle) and to my understanindg this 12 step comes from hour major scale - with compormises in pich.

I found the same difference in approach explained this way: western Music is more focused on structure (symphonies n stuff) whereas eastern Music is more of a loop. The paradox to me is that in the latter there is more space for improvisation. Btw thanks a lot for your insightful take on the subject!!!

Wonderful and very clear explanation with solid analogies comparing modal vs. harmonic music, combined with a talent for playing. Much also has to do with society and religion. The Christian and Muslim cultures tend very much towards a follow-the rule-books approach, with the main book being the Bible or the Koran. The Hindu perspective is totally different, where it is up to the individual to dig deep within themselves to find a lot of the answers. Therefore, Indian music tends to be more individualistic and the pure modal form of music suits it much better.

Hi ! Thank you very much for the video. Do you know about the 22 shrutis discovered by Dr. Oke ? He is an Hindustani classical musician (harmonium maestro) and he has conducted research on music for the past 20 years. He discoverd the 22 musical "notes" or "points" that exist in an octave starting from Shadja. As you know Sa and Pa are fixed. The other 10 have 2 variant each, an entry and an exit, and he explaines very well how our ET scale is "out of tune" when compared to the natural "in tune" and he has explained everything on his website with 50 small articles with all the mathematical explanations. I am studying it, it is very interesting. Explains how some cultures have sharper or flatter notes (frequencies actually) in their scale.

wow. these compromises.... after trying to use oud for metal-style playing, I decided to fully quartertone fret a stratocaster. it completely changed my style. now, i only play 2-string chords, and always bend one string or the other to make the intervals Just. ie: G+/B, B/D+. I tune all fourths and the quartertone frets are almost only used for cutting minor thirds in half. It's almost too hard to arpeggiate and play diminished scales. I need to slow down a bit when playing even diatonic scales. I end up staying within about a fourth (tetrachords). when i listen to umm kulthum daret el ayam... it opens up with a surf-rock toned guitar. just the existence of guitars and pianos constrain the rest of the band; preventing prominent quartertones. usually quartertones only show after they drop out completely or go to pentatonic scales behind bayati, etc.

But when it comes to Indian Classical Music (Eastern Music) the scenario changes gradually. Three basic differences between Indian (Eastern) and Western Classical music: 1. There is absolutely no concept of harmony (in the musical sense) in Indian classical music. There are no chords...only notes and the 'spaces between' them (or microtones, known as sruti) with each note played one at a time to maintain clarity and purity. 2. Indian classical music is largely an oral tradition, facilitating continuity by being sung and played the same way by succeeding generations. But because it is also an improvised art, it means that each musician of succeeding generations can not only add a great deal of creativity but also set a distinct personal style. The raag/raga (melodic structure) itself may be carved in stone and confined to strict rules but because there is no written score, there is no culture of producing an accurate and faithful copy of that score. So, it's a strange mixture...purity combined with full freedom for improvisation and innovation. 3. Western music generally attempts to create a mood as it progresses, Indian music concentrates on exploring a mood from every possible standpoint, plummeting to the very depths of the emotions it creates, but always remaining at the periphery rather than jumping into the centre. Hence, the chosen raag/raga is unfolded very enticingly, note by note and only gradually building up in rhythmic intensity to a fast tempo. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yfMHiTIm-zc.html

I like to have the dissonance of mixing "Western" and "Eastern" music by adding some "Western" / jazz chord progressions onto Middle Eastern maqams incl some 3/4 note interval maqams. Not everyone likes it though. In fact, I also meet similar opposition from changing the standard "trad" guitar (usually DADGAd tuning) to jazz/rock chord progressions sometimes [eg changing an Am - G- Am- G- prgoression to an Am- G- F- E- progression in Aeolian mode jigs and reels

To clarify the difference between; it is that there is no theory (till now at least) able to harmonize quarter tones. So when you say that eastern music is monophonic it is not totally correct because eastern has also modes like major, minor, harmonic and phrygian, additionally to the ukrainian dorian (dorian 4). Because the western could not with its theory harmonize the modes with quarter tones like rast, beyati, saba, sika... they said it is unharmonizable so monophonic. At the same time, I heard some arab compositions with quarter tones and include harmony composition with a very consonant and beautiful tonality to hear.

I agree about most of what you said however, I do not agree that monophonic vs Polyphonic is somehow Arpeggios vs Chords Arpeggios suggest they come from harmony. In arabic music for instance most of the time we follow maqams tetrachords We do not really use the whole scale in one musical phrase (or rarely) so seldom you hear an arpeggios in a real traditional arabic music. We don t also really jump from tonic to fifth to seventh of the scale..This is probably the difference between a maqam and scale and why we need to use a distinct term.
@kdakan
@kdakan 2 года назад
The thing with both western and eastern music scales is, they are not as solid as they are presented in theory books. For example minor scale is actually different in ascending form (with M6 and M7 intervals) and descending form (with m6 and m7 intervals), similar to an approximation of the in between (quarter) tones you are playing middle eastern music on the guitar. The first point where far eastern and middle eastern music began to differentiate is when folks began adding ornamentation, passing notes, and embellishment tones on top of the pentatonic scales. The intervals of these new added tones were personal and local, but for building standard fretted instruments, they were formalized and standardized differently in different regions. The imperial states of Turkestan, India, Persia, Egypt, Islamic, Roman, Byzantine and later Catholic Roman Empires had different takes and different theories for what makes a good scale and good scale intervals. And latest, western church restricted the use of all scales except the seven church modes used in western music today. Tempered tuning standardization came much later after the piano was invented. My idea is that music is just ornamentation on pentatonic scales, western or eastern doesn't matter. One can derive and also use all scales of west and east using this principle. And the quarter tones you may use or not does not change the effect of this kind of music because they are either passing notes or embellishments on the solid pentatonic scale tones, that historically all music on this world derived from. And yet anther fact is, players of non-fretted instruments and vocalists in both west and east play or sing different notes than what theory says they play. For example a violin player will play different micro tones for a sharp F or flat G, which in theory is the same tone (on the piano at least). Also, a violinist will play sharper if the note is the M7 (leading tone) in a major scale. Eastern musicians also play different comma tones (microtones), that can be analyzed on different musicians playing or singers singing the same scale melody. So the solid foundation for me is the pentatonic scales, and building other scales (actually combined scales) on top of the pentatonic scales, but the stable tones (where notes tend to rest more frequently) will be the pentatonic scale tones. And I would build chords mostly from those stable tones/intervals from the pentatonic scale, I would call any other note in a chord as extension notes (melodic intervals) as the 6th, 7th, 9th is called in todays western music theory, but in a more general meaning (any non-pentatonic scale tone), not the 6th, 7th and 9th exactly. And finally I will add that western music has a lot of third leaps in melodies whereas middle eastern music has mostly 2nd, 4th and 5th interval leaps in melodies. And there is limited chord structures built with these 2nd, 4th, and 5th intervals in traditional instruments like baglama/saz and kemence. And there is actually a formalized harmonic theory developed by Kemal Ilerici, that utilized stacked 4ths (which result in these 2nd, 4th and 5th intervals), that is used a lot by Turkish classical music composers whose influence is Turkish folk or traditional middle eastern music (for example Muammer Sun used this theory for most of his works).

Great video, you explained really well about this subject. Personally, I tend to listen arabic music more, and sometimes I listen western classical and pop music too, and I can feel there's a lot of difference yet I cannot explain it except for the usage of microtonal notes.

Very interesting video, thank you very much for the time you've put into transmitting this. It has helped me very much in seeing foundational distinctions. In my humble opinion, I think where the two specifically meet is within the realm of harmonizing a melody. That's where you start to get into a whole new realm of creative possibilities and music theory can be visualized as an infinite expanse never ending.. but it feels very difficult to grasp practically and somewhat out of reach. So baby steps. But I also I think that real practice and dedication can be a ferry to bring one to that level of capability and understanding to where it's not overly intellectual killing the 'spirit' of the music so to speak. The first step is always to enjoy it, have fun, and connect, if you ask me that is.. Anyways, I enjoyed this much.Thank you again!

Thank you for this video. I've been trying to understand the differences between western and eastern music and this is a wonderful explanation that gives respect to both systems.
