- In this video I will Teach You Concepts On How to Figure Out Any Chord By Ear. This may seem impossible at first but I will show you the concepts I taught Dylan to take his incredible ear to the next level and figure out any chord no matter the Complexity or Density Level. There are 3 keys Listen, Think and Analyze. Learn the Outside of the Chords the the Insides. I don't have Perfect Pitch and I can sing these chords. I couldn't do it on until I was exposed to this kind of Harmonic Language.

“Learn how to do a double backflip”
“Step 1: be able to do a double backflip”
To do a double backflip, you should quadruple backflip, then half it
@@mikea6710 or do a front flip and mirror it
@@mikea6710 LOL! Great analogy! like building a house starting from the roof!
@@Ocean8881 Ah, the functional approach:
First, stop the rain...
@@RogerBarraud lol
Can I identify chords? **listens to chord** Well, umm that, uhh... was definitely a chord.
I would have thought that you'd know what it sounds like already. Clearly you're not intelligent enough.
@@zac3392 I've been trying since I read this to think of a decent comback and all I can think of is that I'm A minor so that amounts to abuse. Pathetic and unoriginal, I know... kind of like a power chord.
@@finalscore2983 old (bad) joke. U better C # or U will B flat if U play with The G string or A minor. (well something like That). d.e.f.
Great Video! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you thought about - Dinanlinson Detox System Approach (do a search on google)? It is a good one of a kind guide for revealing the secret to master the piano without the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my mate at last got amazing success with it.
No he's not teaching anything useful or particularly possible.
How to identify chords?
*ask Dylan...
“Hi everybody I’m Rigby Otto”. Love the auto-generated captions.
Oh, I thought you would begin by teaching how to identify a C chord...
that would definitely have more practical value for the humans amongst us
No. It's learning to identify the four triads first, then distinguish inversions until you become familiar with internal voicings, then add in 7ths and finally upper diatonic extensions and color tones.
So not "c major" but just "major" if you can identify the root then you have the practical skills needed as a musician.
It's difficult for augmented triads and diminished 7th chords because they are symmetrical, so pretty much just assume the low note is the root
@@ayoungethan I found it difficult to identify 7ths chords in songs, any tips?
@luke guess and check, it’s good for your ear anyway and you’ll eventually be able to tell the difference like you can tell blue from green .
Dude..when I watch vids like this, I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I'm a musician..my ears are made of lead.
:(
I understand and admire at this skill, but in my opinion it has nothing with composing and enjoying the playing. It is amazing tool for practising though.
Nemanja Smiljanic Try telling John Williams that
made me laugh
Janusz Reguła Wdym for some of them he's just saying the note names. You can tell that his absolute pitch is helping his relative pitch. I don't even know if u can call it relative pitch in those cases. Because how are u supposed to pretend that youre only going based on interval relationships when you know all the notes by heart? Like you'd have to somehow ignore what the notes are for a second. For the ones that he's naming right away, I guess he must be also be using the sound of the chords to be able to name them so quickly. Idek man
@Janusz Reguła dylan has perfect pitch
I found this video years after it came out. I have perfect pitch, but I was never able to do chords. Obviously, I haven’t mastered it yet, but I could definitely feel the dots connecting while watching this. Thanks so much!
Are you able to hear the individual notes themselves in a chord?
@@JackHagar I am, I just never learned theory, thats why Im studying it now that I am 45.

Well, you lost me there.
What manner of sorcery is this??
Where do *you* think brilliance like this originates from?
divinasion Hogwarts or Krypton^
these comments are better than the video! funnyman
😂
Rick Your smiles at Dylan's skills as he identifies these chords show how proud you are. I look forward to these videos and love all the older ones to enhance skills and learn. I have a big 40 year gap in theory classes from college you are filling with practice strategies, interval training, use of EQ, sidebar stories.. Everything music..! I have and will continue to I enjoy the channel immensely. I feel like I know you. Thank You
I knew a few people in music school (college) that had abilities like Rick and Dylan and it only depressed me so much that I nearly killed myself. Fortunately, I didn’t and my ears have gotten better over the years. I am still in awe of Dylan however (and maybe a little jealous). Way to go Rick, what an amazing ear he has! 👍🏽
It's kind of like the old joke: How do you make ten million dollars? Step one: Get a million dollars.
How do you identify any chord, no matter how complex? Step one: Get perfect pitch.
I also wondered if Dylan has perfect pitch, because he names actual notes. Although it's possible with good relative pitch given a reference note. That kid has insanely big ears, all of these chords sounded like a dissonant blur to me. At least at first, it helps when Rick breaks it down. I recognize some structures, diminished really sticks out of course, a fifth in the bass. I hear the seconds, the aug chords etc when played separately oc. I'm a guitarist so to me single notes sound kind of woolly on a piano, I'm also not used to the dynamic range. But still, even on a guitar there's no way I could do this. Damn I need to work on my ear, back to the woodshed.
If you want a million dollars as a musician, you start with 3 million.
Bullshit. You don't need to know the key of the chord is to pick out the unique sound character of different chords. If you can hear the difference between major and minor chords, then you can already ID chords by ear. It's relative pitch.
@Austin Martín Hernández why are you watching this video then lmao
Is Dylan for rent?
😂
😂😂

Great stuff Rick. I would be willing to bet Dylan has perfect pitch, or had a great teacher, or both.
Oh I wish someone taught me this 30 years ago when I was small.
Thanks Rick for explaining the logic and sorting process you taught Dylan. It's very useful to see your very thorough process in action.
I want everyone to realize I chose the thumbnail on purpose :)
Does your son play video games?
Yes, why?
I figured he'd be more into things like that but I guess you are a big influence on him that's why he so dedicated. Maybe things work out for him in a music career. Having an early start being trained at a young age. Good Luck!
Cheers
How a lucky son of a genius father.
Hope he would keep maintaining our future musical industry way more better than now.
Rick Beato face and all cows eat grass, or however say it. But the face is in treble clef , and all cows eat grass is bass clef.
Edit: sry I’m late
Imagine how more and more kids will learn this kind of stuff in the future cause we get more and more effective in seperating the relevant from the irrelevant information regarding theory and ear training. It's ridiculous how ineffective a lot of classical music teachers school their students... I wish I had a teacher like Rick when I was younger or even now... I can only try to catch up with this kind of stuff!
Soooo true. The way music is taught - actually the way EVERYTHING is taught but that's a WHOLE ASS conversation - misses the point of a lot of things and leaves a lot of great advantages in the dust. Lot of outdated schools of thought & very much eurocentric which really takes away from musicianship. Problem is, "modern day" musical approach instructs every person to pick and stick to 1 primary instrument, when it takes a whole host of sound & style to develop knowledge & wisdom. Music is physics + emotion but that's not exactly the grounding of modern day music education.
Interesting ... no fascinating. Am semi retired MD who”gave up music” at college. Trying to find it again at 70 plus. Some I knew.... most is new. Main interest was classical and baroque music. Love your teaching! Thanks.
As an actor, Dylan would fit the part of a "Sixth Sense" type movie.
I had a piano teacher years ago who was just like Dylan, only she was in her mid 30's having played piano since a very young age. I tried my best to challenge her with bizarre chords, but she recited the notes instantly and correctly every single time. It's just amazing to witness this talent in person!
Wow! You've got gifted son. Hes very highly educated at that age, basically having professional talent already at school age.. Got a great teacher as well..
Lately i have been bingewatching these videos for pasttime and i want to let you know I appreciate them, its very approachable way to get educated of these little things i hadnt figured out.
I didnt take lessons in music, more of a trial and error, "if it sounds good" approach to writing music, but i have pretty good relative pitch coming from guitarplaying, but oh man i couldnt figure out those higher chords with attack, especially with no root key. Gets my respect, thats for sure.
Hes a genius lol
That double polychord, whaat.. how..
Ya I think someone already mentioned it but that Ab should be A for the first chord
:-) Rick, you are a giant among mortals (and little Dylan is even GIANTER). Huge thanks sir, from this mortal. Love ya man!
All beautiful useable Chordvoicings...thank You.
Was dylan practicing piano when the particle accelerator blew up..!?!!! :/
Nice Flash reference there
My name is Dylan Beato and I'm the fastest chord identifier in the world. Iam the CHORD
This really did help me! Thank you and please keep doing more!
I am inspired for the rest of my life. All thanks to God for bringing you and your son to us thanks.
In the first chord you have an Ab written above the keyboard, but you're playing an A natural
oh! great! just what i am looking for!!
Thanks so much Rick!
That was fun and you have spared yourself a life of listening to a family member playing "Heart and Soul" ---ever.
Très impressionnants le père et le fils! Bravo!!!
Watching this video makes Dylan even more mind boggling:) What a champ!
Just out of curiosity, does the timbre of the instrument impact Dylan’s ability to identify harmonic intervals. Is he just as proficient with any polyphonic instrument?
Mark Caraway i know people who only have perfect pitch on the instrument they play, but I’m not sure if that’s only because they have relative pitch and are just mimicking perfect pitch by using their instrument as a reference. If Dylan has true perfect pitch, he should be able to do it with any instrument, and timbre should have no effect.
Joshua Li It wouldn’t even need to be an actual instrument, just about any sound with an identifiable pitch.
@@JackHagar 100% my dad would do it with the noise of the vacuum cleaner, a birds chirp, the exhaust of a car, etc. He said it actually drove him crazy alot of the time because he could hear when so many instruments were sharp or flat :(
I only ended up with relative pitch but it's still handy lol.
Rick Beato... I love you. 👍👍👍👍👍
the more I watch Beato, the more I think anything is possible!
This is a good video for who ALREADY has some degree of trained ears.
this is very very important!!!
I can definitely hear the different notes in a chord and with a lil more training could probably tell you the interval.
Just can’t remember what the notes sounds like!
Great video Rick
First of all, Thanks for all the amazing content you put out. Your channel truly is a treasure for anyone interested in music.
Could you perhaps do a video on Arvo Pärts musical language. His Tintinnabulation concept is utterly fascinating. I would also love if you did something regarding Messiaen's use of rhythm; rhythmic canons, palindromes. etc.
It would also be cool if you discussed how to make use of Slonimsky's Thesaurus in a structured way, especially in relation to Jazz improv.
I have loved Rick for years and have learned so much from him over the years. But if the demo is on the level ( and I highly doubt that he has done anything untoward. But if everything is on the level, his son might just be a witch. I have known several musicians over the years with perfect pitch, but what his son was doing was absolutely super-human. I’m talking X-men kind of crap. I can’t even imagine having golden ears like that. I hope his son is doing something with those ears beyond being a simple musician . Truly inspiring , while being absolutely humbling to us mere humans. WOW !!!
Your videos are amazing
just can you sub categorize your playlist and in ascending order (beginner to advance)
Thanks
Lol. This doesn't help. The child had been exposed since they were born so they can get it. But thank you for the thought process
Rick beato can do it pretty well too and he doesn’t have perfect pitch
I feel like that's my biggest disconnect from music, trying to figure out the origin note, I can tell if it's a percent fith or a perfect 3rd ! Real talent it takes to understand the first note of the chord !
Many thanks :)
This is crazy! Joking, it's insane.
I'm waiting for the day that Dylan just goes, "it's just a buncha notes Dad, stop being so ridiculous!"
But seriously Rick, and Dylan, I really love your stuff.
We love you Rick...but a few vocal lessons may help ease our pain 😲💕
Sorcery! I wouldn't know some of those chords if someone had just told me.....This is some David Blaine stuff....
I tried programming individual sounds for each note on my midi keyboard so I could get the basic intervals down helps if you're getting started.
I really like playing piano. 💞
Hi Rick,
Great video! Would you be able to get Jacob Collier and/or June Lee in for an interview on Sounding Off? In June's interviews with Jacob they often sing ideas to each other, including polychords like Dmaj7/Cmaj7.
Hey Rick, you are an awesome player/teacher and I enjoy your videos a lot. I can see the value of knowing all the scales and all the changes and music theory in general. However, the one thing I rarely hear anyone suggest is to get the sound of these things in one's ears. Without that (we are playing with sound(s), right?) it seems like a lot of instruction amounts to what looks like math equations and chemical formulas. When a player "jumps off the cliff" in jazz improvisation it is the ears that I believe becomes the parachute or wings that helps him or her to land on their feet and not on their face. I used to think playing by ear was primitive compared to formal musical education but not anymore.
I don't know, there seems to me more factors at work than just practise. I think this level of recognition (Dylan's level) is limited to people with a lot of dedicated exposure from a young age and perhaps talent which is then developed.
I can recognise a fair number of common chords, but I still need the piano to connect sight and sounds for complex chords. Of course there's that thing where you hear a chord in your head and then use the keyboard to work it out. I don't think that's so much of a crutch that needs to be dispensed with. I accept that I'm not Beethoven.
Hi Rick, I love your videos (the first thing I always check on yt) and learn a lot from them. Here however I don't see the relation between the title of the video and its contents.
You explain the technique Dylan uses (like the polychord recognition) but you don't explain how he or you acquired this technique, i.e. how to recognize the constituent chords so fast. Myself I can recognize most single "tonal chords”, but the stacked combination of distant tonal chords (even just 3-note chords) that results in atonal sounding chords is another game. I tend to hear these as one atonal chord rather than a polychord, and hence t takes me much time to analyse them. Did you teach him the single tonal chords and then said now let’s do random combinations and it worked right away? Or how did you teach this progressively to him?
+Melosthesia This is how I taught Dylan to listen to these complex chords. There were a bunch of other cords on the videos that I did not include that would be impossible for most people even with perfect pitch. All the chords in the video I have a harmonic basis that is learnable with enough practice.
I still feel like there's a gap between Dylan's ability and how we can learn to hear these chords. You may have taught Dylan the structure of those chords and how to identify their qualities, but wouldn't his perfect pitch help in keeping track of those notes while he organizes them in his head (the "hesitation" part)? How far can relative pitch take you here?
I don't have perfect pitch - and to make it worse, my memory sucks as well!
My first problem is I am hearing the notes of these polychords as one dissonant chord.
My second problem is that even when I am able to break the polychord down and begin to hear one of the fundamental chords, I lose track of the first in my memory as I attempt to identify the notes of the second chord..
To be fair, I have no formal music training, but my ear isn't bad either. I'd hate to imagine the difficulty your average musician might face when attempting the exercises in this video..
That kid is on another level.
Peace
divinasion
Exactly my problem! I lose track of it too. I can shift my mind to hear the a minor or the root note of the chord (root notes are pretty easy to guess and a minor is a chord I commonly use, Chopin’s waltz, fur elise, I-vi-IV-V progression on C..
But when it comes down to the chords I know decently, I can’t separate them in my head.
Rick, you remind me of my grade 4 teacher who hummed the tonic sol-.ca then asked his learners to identify those notes.
Rick - just found your channel - wow - it's like finding a large sum of money under the floorboards or something. Can't thank you enough for a truly inspiring set of videos. (And Dylan - astounding - I can do, looking at the keyboard, in 5 minutes, what he does in two seconds with his eyes closed!) So I haven't been through them all yet but I would love to see a set of videos on scoring for vocals. I write songs on piano or guitar but I would love to be better at creating arrangements for larger ensembles... I create some that I think sound just perfect, but it's very hit and miss... I can't repeat the same sense for a different type of song. I'd be keen to know your thoughts on how you go about complementing a song and lifting it without overpowering it, or how to add string lines that don't get muddy or start to sound like overdramatic B grade movie themes. It's a strangely fine line... some arrangers get away with flowery violin lines but it can so easily start to sound cheesy when you emulate it. Often less is more - that's my starting position - but sometimes -
say for a big dramatic ballad for stage - more can also be more. Any thoughts on a video series analysing some really well-arranged songs for various groups of instruments? Thanks again.
When I practice identifying chords, I sometimes hear notes from the overtone series that aren't actually played, e.g. if I play the notes C, G, and A simultaneously in the low range of the piano, I might hear an E as the highest note. Is there a way to tell the overtones apart from the notes being played? Also, do the overtones ever confuse Dylan when he's identifying complex chords?
Starfish omg the same happens to me sometimes! ;w;
Same here
Absolutely I hear the overtones. I wish I could NOT hear them so well.
Same here, I hear overtone 5ths, makes it hard to figure out what's actually being played.
Some time ago, I asked if Dylan heard "sum and difference" tones, and if he consciously disregarded them, but I never got a reply.
Incredible. I wonder if world best music stars ( like e.g. Sting) would be able to recognize these chords as well. On the other I wonder if extremely talented people like Dylan would once write and perform hits like Sting and others..:-)
THANKS>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Rick, have you considered doing any music theory videos on the harmonic language of contemporary classical composers, like John Adams, Thomas Adès, or Toru Takemitsu? Would love to see something like that
Tom K Yes!
*grins excitedly*
@Rick Beato hey Rick,
First of all, dylan have an AMAZING ears just WOW.
but there is something very interesting when he sang the F Dorian chord he said F C, but he did Eb C very interesting.
A little off topic (Dylan isn't the focus of the video I know), but really curious about how Dylan's skills have impacted his relationship with music. Does he enjoy listening or playing? What are his preferences (and his reasons for his preferences)? What specific or general meaning does music have for him with so much of it demystified? How about background music vs active listening?
Does a video addressing (any of) these questions exist?
Would be interesting to hear more about your views on the NS-10's Rick
I watched the video and just feel frustrated. I feel like I wasted half an hour.
Great!. How do you approach recognizing trichords (pitch class set theory) and clusters ?
thanks
swietne !!!
Why is the first chord C+ over Db+ rather than F major within C# minor? Both of the latter are chords made up of thirds, in root position (the C# is shifted down an octave)?
I wonder if I will ever master this... :O
That's great, thanks a lot!
But what about practicing hearing these "non-triadic structures"? How can I practice hearing quartal harmonies like E A D G C with C in bass (C6add9) voicing)? Or even worse C E A D F# (C6add#11)? How to practice?
Thank you))
Envying that kid for the headstart he has. LOL
thanks.
0:46 What in the heck? Outstanding.
Rick has to have at least 140 genius level IQ. This is bananas.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he had an above average IQ but knowing these chords is really just about studying music theory and actually being able to hear them is about having a really good ear.
dylan and his alfabet soup of tones!!! makes me laugh every time watch it!!!
Wow! Having your pineal gland set to "full alert" probably helps out in stuff like this. lol
Literally a stunning example of human capabilities. Beyond cosmic.
To be honest with talent like this, I don't think any kind of psychic power is necessary.
Peace
video starts ("hi everyone its Rigby Otto!)...😄😎😁
I've always though of his name being pronounced as "Rick Beet-o" then I heard him say it and I was like "oh . . . . . Ok then"
It's weird because I have perfect pitch and can identify every note as well as most chords, but I had trouble identifying the augmented chords and the rest of the chords he played.
+Rick Beato Hey Rick, recently discovered your channel (via Mr Neely's) and I love it. Had a query about that Dmaj7 with the added flat 3rd. Wouldn't that normally be named a Dmaj7 +9 (major 7th with a sharp 9)? I know many chords can be named in a variety of ways and that chord function plays a role in deciding which label one applies. If you haven't already, could you get into that some time? Cheers, and keep it up.
That's really deep Rick... Now here is a suggestion for a video... How about a systematic path to progressive transcribing to eventually get to transcribe everything you hear with no need for a reference instrument? If you had 10 transcriptions in jazz or classical music that progressively became more dense harmonically and more demanding melodically (I guess with less key reference or more key centers), what would they be ? Thanks again Rick, I'm a massive fan, oh and while I have you reading this, if you ever have the opportunity to have Guthrie Govan on Sounding Off, I will flip !!! lol
+Francis Pariseau I will have Guthrie on for sure
rick, you start directly by something very difficult, why not a simple basic major chord ?
could this first chord also be thought of as an Fmaj7#9/Db?
Confession: I'm a jazz pianist with perfect pitch, but I found some of these extremely difficult! I think in terms of "root + quality," which usually simplifies things. For example, I heard E/A- as "A melodic minor" and Cdim/Bb as "D altered." But this approach fails for things like Ab7/Fmaj7+5, since I don't have a name/function/color associated with "Fmaj7+5+9(natural5)b7b9"! If I can't hear a scale inside the notes, I'm lost.
Any suggestions, Rick? Is it better to train yourself to hear scales or multiple chords?
Hi Aaron. I would dream to have your ability. But for your question, Perhaps you could try to forget what you know (theory, scales, etc..) and only use your pitch talent and your memory to stack notes and reorganize them what ever chord are played. I believe this kid is able to do this. Rick said that he only shows in this video, chords that can be analysed.. meaning that Dylan can ear and feel chords out of theory and scales.. Theory and knowledg are the limit of relative pitch musician. Hopefully you can be creative and a great musician without absolute pitch and even relative pitch--. But With perfect pitch, you might be able to open other doors at the feel lost.
chromaticbass Even with perfect pitch I think there’s a limit as to how much you can hear at once. If you just slammed your whole arm on a piano playing 10+ notes at once I don’t even think someone with perfect pitch could decipher everything there, in a reasonable amount of time at least. It’s because of the that knowing chord qualities really helps speed up the process because it’s easier to find a root and then listen for quality than to pick apart every note being played.
@@chromaticbass Just saw your reply. Thank you for your kind words! It's evident that Dylan knows a fair bit of theory (courtesy of Rick), so maybe he's using a combination of the "pick out stacked notes" approach and hearing qualities. I agree that theoretically (no pun intended) Dylan could do what he does knowing zero theory, but it would take more work. For example you could hear G-B-D (3 things) or just G major (1 thing); Eb-Ab-Bb-E-A-B (6 things) or Esus/Ebsus (2 things). It gets interesting when there are multiple ways to "parse" a chord!
@@JackHagar Yes, that's what I was getting at... having a large theory vocabulary makes it much faster. My background is in jazz, so I could much more easily hear something like C altered as opposed to some bitonal polychord. I've gotten into 20th century classical music lately though; always looking to expand my harmonic horizons!
Eric Johnson for Sounding Off ? =)
5:11 Yo Snoop!!!
Rick, have you talked to any people with perfect pitch and asked them what their process of identifying chords and notes is like? I'm curious if they use any of the techniques you shared in this video.
Aaron Clift Honestly, just Dylan and my friend Aydin. They just pick them out no problem. They hear the collection of notes and then go through a sorting process to see if they can be structured in any particular way.
Yeah, that's how I go about it as well (I have perfect pitch).
I naturally just hear a whole sound, have to really force myself to get into the individual pitches. So, how do you practice that?
I've done a bunch of note-for-note transcriptions, and still do, every time it's the same struggle. I'm tempted to think that quickly breaking down mixes of pitches is part of the AP bundle.
Sure I feel like I could get a little better at it, but getting real fast is another story. In live conditions my chord recognition is always based on memorized chord colors. I may miss subtleties though, that's why I have to switch to the slow analytical mode when I want to do a precise transcription.
Maybe someday please break down "The Claw" with Glen Campbell, Jerry Reed and Larry McNeely. Thanks!
I am blind and have perfect pitch. I was born with it.. I use Logic pro x to create music. But i also play instruments.
@kha sab Typing doesn't really require eyesight as long as you know where the keys are. Besides, there's a wide variety of OS functions and programs that make using a computer with various physical disadvantages possible/easier. No rocket science there.
12 notes in a poly chord? No problem...I got this!
Have to turn in a paper for a university course in two hours... Why am I watching this video
sir who is prectice can my ear are perfect plzz sir give me exercise wose hepl my precticing my ear who is the exrcise plzzz tell me
I thought this would give me some tools to do the ear training I purchased, but it is still a complete mystery...
Hey Rick, I see in the background in some of your videos you have some analog racks?
Have you/will you make some videos on that stuff? Even though that might not be the main point of this channel, since most of your videos weigh heavily on music theory and classical composing of "contemporary/film music" or whatever, but I feel that there might some people in the viewer base who would like to see what you've got and what you use your analog stuff for etc.
Also, you could talk about that in the context of how electronic and real music is layered together today to make some insane sounding pieces for film f.ex. Interstellar or Tron: Legacy are some.
I'm personally interested in the more electronic music, composing, synths and stuff like that but I am learning to compose better in a more classical sense.
Thanks.
I will absolutely talk about that. I use electronic synths and sounds for my producing all the time. I need to figure out how to do a screen capture for the video. Quicktime works poorly.
DeKill Thanks!
I love Rick Beato's interviews and posts, but this is a rare exception. The differences would be evident if you invited Rick to listen to MP3 at 320 vs. WAV 16-bit/44.1KHz on a high-end sound system. If we listen with headphones, we are immensely lowering the level of what we can hear and it works like "flattening", where things with different details sound the same. Poor test!
For the C+/Db+ you show Db F Ab C E G# but play an A, why?
This seems pretty much like what Lennie Tristano taught so maybe we should consider it a "benign plagiarism." However, it can perhaps be useful when trying to learn some of the complicated voicings in the compositions found in Bill Dobbins' jazz theory book.
Just realized I know nothing of music theoty :) great
