    00:00 Introduction
    01:31 The ascending melodic minor scale
    02:15 The circle of melodic minor modes
    08:57 2-5-1 in minor
    14:53 2-5-1 in Major
    18:35 More scales
    20:54 Summary
    Scales in use:
    Ascending melodic minor, Dorian b2, Lydian Augmented, Lydian Dominant, Aeolian Dominant (Hindu), Half diminished (Locrian #2) and Altered Dominant scale.
    Playing 2-5-1 using the Church Modes:
    • Easy 2-5-1 Jazz Improv...
    The Circle of Church Modes:
    • Modal Theory - The 7 C...
    I surely hope you will enjoy this Jazz lesson. It took a while to make this video because of all the graphics. But I think the graphics and the circle makes the music theory more understandable and clear - so I hope it was worth it :)
    The best and warm regards
    Oliver Prehn :)

    These modes are the most neglected in the study of jazz improvisation because they are minor and difficult to understand. Most musicians are just familiar with the Major scale modes which seem to be easier. I have studied modes but none ever explained them to me as you do. Here I've encountered the best explanation that makes sense. Thanks.

I have been playing piano for a long time but with this lesson I got a new dimension of whay is going on on Jazz improvisation. I am a physsicist so I am not have plenty of time to enjoy your lessons, but I will try regularly, and as soon as I can I will colaborate with your economical support. Thank a lot from Argentina.

    The best of YT, the best lesson ever. Oliver your lessons are excelent! So clear and, importantly, you have invented a slow english style that allows all non-native english speakers to understand everything. This makes your lessons really universal. And of course your pedagogic insight comes from a very high knowledge of music. I've never been taught that there were so handy rules to easily mix notes from different scales, If I'd had known this from kid ... !! I'm so grateful to you for your efforts! Keep doing good!

    @francescomanfredi Před 6 lety +6

    Unbelievable Oliver, this is what I was waiting for and much more! I would also add that the reason why the altered scale works so well on the V alt chord is that it comes from the triton substitution: G altered scale has the same note of Db lydian b7 scale. The other reason why it sounds so good is that it contains all the possible tensions of the dominant chord

    • @NewJazz
      @NewJazz  Před 6 lety +2

      Thanks a lot Francesco :) :) Yes the altered scale and the Lydian dominant are place direct opposite on the circle (a tritone interval). So "G alt" contains the same keys as "Db Lydian b7". And correct, the altered scale has so many altered notes and therefore it has a lot of tension - a truly dominant chord!

  • @dk2018
