Just found your channel yesterday and cannot thank you enough. I’ve really struggled with modes and understanding what changes and why. Love your teaching style.

The similarities but differences between Borrowed chords and Modes and is interesting.

Yes, it is really interesting and glad you liked the video :)

Well explained. I love this video. My question is am I breaking the modal chord progressions rules, if I stick to Ionian chord progression in a song and apply all seven or six modes in modal melodies n solos?

@acousticguitarlessons 11 месяцев назад

@simondou6882, in a nutshell, you can do what you want :) There are no rules in music, just guidelines. However, understand that to create a particular modal melody, you have to be sure it is over a progression that is in the same mode you want to create the melody in. Whatever the mode of the progression, that will be the mode of your melody :)

Isn’t sweet home Alabama in the key of g major and those 3 chords just 1,4,5? This is a great video but as a relative novice I get confused very easily so could be way off the mark….and confused

@acousticguitarlessons 2 месяца назад

@MatthewFenner-f4f, thanks! Regarding Sweet Home Alabama, there's a bit of an ongoing debate as to what the key of this song is. Google it and you will see :) I think you can think of it as either G Major or D Mixolydian.

@richi6006 Месяц назад

Is there any way to establish the root note? So you don't lose it when playing in the relative

@richi6006, yes. I think this video will answer your question: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-grumqcbjlLs.html

When harmonising scales as a sequence of simple triads, the 'dim' chord is not 'half diminished' - it should be referred to simply as diminished. Only when we extend the chords to 7ths should we then refer to it as half diminished.

@acousticguitarlessons 3 месяца назад

@squashfan9526, yes I am aware of that. That is my error, I should've said diminished :)

@squashfan9526 3 месяца назад

@@acousticguitarlessons ok, but you say half-diminished many times, and in your other videos too

@acousticguitarlessons 3 месяца назад

@@squashfan9526 yes, I know. It’s a bad habit. I was taught to harmonise a scale in 7th chords first before triads many years ago, so I keep calling the 7 chord half diminished even though I know it’s diminished when there are only 3 voices.

@squashfan9526 3 месяца назад

@@acousticguitarlessons Well, let's see if you can shake off that bad habit - it's not a good look for a guitar tutor!

@jonharley7715 Год назад

On the video you say half-diminished, but the text on the video says diminished. Would you be able to clarify this, please?

@acousticguitarlessons Год назад

Sorry for the confusion Jon :) It is a diminished chord if you harmonise the scale in triads (3 note chords), however, if you harmonise the scale extending the chords (adding another note ) it becomes a half diminished chord. So B diminished is B D F B half diminished is B D F A I should've just said diminished chord :)
