| whoosoo ::: Favorites 2007-12-16 10:58:41 it sounds different from the do re mi that i know...i know that do re mi scale is a major scale...how come that it is a dorian..? __________________________________________________ | |
| johnhguitar ::: Favorites 2007-10-09 00:48:57 When you look at a scale it's all one scale no matter what note you start on. If it sounds like Do Re Mi etc... whatever that first note is that's the root or first note of that key. If your going to jam with that scale, the last thing you want it to sound like is Do Re Mi..etc.. Learn where all the notes are and start going crazy...EXPERIMENT.....Find what YOU think sounds good......John H __________________________________________________ | |
| scrollandkey ::: Favorites 2007-10-08 14:07:52 Oh.. ok .. you just made a lightbulb appear for me. There are huge gaps in my theory knowledge due to van halen tabs in the 80's. Ive recently started lessons again though. Thanks for taking the time to reply. __________________________________________________ | |
| johnhguitar ::: Favorites 2007-10-08 13:55:20 The C major diatonic scale consists of notes C,D,E,F,G,A,B, or the white keys on the piano. All notes in this lesson are one of these. If you play any of these 7 patterns on another starting note it will not be the same key, but these patterns are all different. Maybe you're thinking of modes? -jc __________________________________________________ | |
| scrollandkey ::: Favorites 2007-10-08 13:15:31 How can all these be the C scale ? I thought the key of a scale was determined by the note you start on? __________________________________________________ | |
| LordHines420 ::: Favorites 2007-10-02 00:18:14 cool vid. thanks __________________________________________________ | |
| johnhguitar ::: Favorites 2007-09-12 13:17:56 yes. __________________________________________________ | |
| jarejewl ::: Favorites 2007-09-12 01:24:40 Will these same seven positions work for all of the keys depending on where you start the root? __________________________________________________ | |
| Superphilipp ::: Favorites 2007-08-23 17:29:05 The fingering is still the same, but never mind. __________________________________________________ | |
| dandood2 ::: Favorites 2007-08-23 13:13:41 they are different positions of the SAME scale... not the modes thats different......modes are related (share the same notes)... but are different scales with their own unique formulas, and own unique sounds. This guys lesson is right on __________________________________________________ | |
| Superphilipp ::: Favorites 2007-08-18 20:24:27 Thanks for taking the time to explain this. :) I play jazz piano, in case you were wondering why I brought this up. __________________________________________________ | |
| johnhguitar ::: Favorites 2007-08-18 20:19:41 This seems to me to be a thorough way of learning the notes of C major and from here you can branch out and study the modes and the rest of music theory. Don't forget that most all of Western music refers to the C major scale for its discriptions which are perfectly laid out on the piano. We can use this for most everything as a base.

| Superphilipp ::: Favorites 2007-08-17 18:53:15 This seems helpful, but why do you call them positions? They are the diatonic modes, ionian, dorian, phrygian and so on. Or is this a more rock oriented way of thinking about it? __________________________________________________ | |
