  • What is modal interchange? And what is modal mixture? In this crystal clear guitar tutorial you will learn all about Modal Interchange, a technique for composing awesome and surprising chord progressions. Take you songs to the next level! Everything is explained with top notch graphics and tablature on screen. You will learn to use this technique to create chord progressions with borrowed chords from a parallel key or mode. Think of the dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian and Locrian mode. This technique of mixing tonalities is used in modern Jazz, but is also a great asset for rock guitar players and suitable for other styles of guitar soloing. I show you why and when to use a certain chord to get a certain effect. Never a boring progression again. You also learn how to improvise over modal mixtures.

I'm not really interested in learning tons of songs but more interested in expressing myself through playing what I feel and writing my own tunes. This takes a lot of learning to understand how to play the melodies/harmonies and modes are of course an important part of that. Your explanations are so easy to understand. Thank you very much for all the amazing content!! You should have many more subscribers, your channel is a real gem :)

    Thanks for the great video. Your explanation is crystal clear and I love how you provide many examples of how modal interchange works in practice and little gems like how the transition between the modes can happen within the melodic line. The standard notation plus guitar tab plus chord shapes alongside the explanations helps to understand this concept much more easily. Can see a lot of work went into this and other videos. Thanks again.

    I just discovered your channel. Stunning and clear explanations. The best video on modal interchange because you explain not only 'How it Works' but also 'Why it works. Other 'Modal Interchange' videos do not explain the 'Why it works' part. Is there a follow-up course to this as you explained at the end of this video? You mentioned a follow-up in regards to using the Harmonic minor and Melodic minor scales for modal interchange. I cannot locate this aforementioned video. Thank you kindly.

  • @JB19504

    Another great video. Rob, it would be so great to have you expand your lessons to a comprehensive multi chapter course with backing tracks, tabs, videos in progressive lesson plans starting with the basics and working on up. I would certainly pay for such an expanded course. While the videos are fantastic, I would love to have a more structured course with "lesson plans", etc. Just a suggestion. For instance Modes combined with Triads and Scales. Yes, I know about your ebooks, and have bought several, but I would like it to be a more structured package.
