Introduction to MIXOLYDIAN scale - and beyond...

  • We start up easy discovering the Mixolydian characteristics. Then we create an expanded left hand chord and we improvise a solo with the right hand. Then we discuss the so called "avoid" note and we find out that the "avoid" note is not so dangerous after all. Finally we make another thrilling jazz scale that is almost like the Mixolydian...
    We start up very easy and we put on more stuff as we go along...
    Donations are very much appreciated. Donations help me to produce more lessons by cutting down the hours at my regular daytime work:

    In the video I refer to this other NewJazz lesson about the minor melodic modes: • 7 great Jazz scales - ...
    In the next jazz lesson we'll use Mixolydian to play a blues: • Learn Simple BLUES PIA...
    The best and warm regards

      I agree. Often theory lessons can busy the mind. But the way Oliver teaches is zen-like. It actually simplifies things, empties the mind in its clarity. I find it relaxing. That's a sign of great teacher.

    This is the most elegantly clear explanation of how to form Mixolydian chords I have ever seen. You are unlocking chord theory after many years for this dyslexic struggler. There are many great players, but so few truly great teachers, thank you Oliver.

    @arthurrosch5378 Před 2 lety

    Jazz is an expression of personal achievement. It is intellectual and spiritual athleticism combined with grace of perception. What a jazz musician finds is a form so deep and inclusive that it sucks into itself all the world’s music and sublimates these musics into an idiom that blends blues and improvisation. A practitioner of jazz is much like a yogi or monk who undertakes a life of contemplation. When musicians arrive together to make music they bring their valise of masteries, their real and fake books, their tools and tuners. Nowadays we have no guides except jazz musicians. The world may not know this. But WE do.

    Hi Oliver, is nice to come back to one of the first Videos i saw. I learned that the Avoid-Note relates to a Cadence Situation. I always used it a lot. And, now i see all the Connections between your other Vids espacielly the "3 small Licks.." Vid. I will try to transfer it to the Guitar too. One more Time THANKS a lot my Friend!

    Hi Oliver! I hadn’t watched this video until now, thinking i already knew “plenty” about what the mixolydian scale is. But I’m so glad i watched it! Great application of the dominant left hand “grip 2b” chord, and i would not have thought of trying a “lydian dominant” scale anytime soon. Thanks again, good sir.
