The Modes In Detail - Lydian

Sharp the 4!

Chinese Translation for Chinese students

如果拿Lydian 音階和大調(major)音階來比較,Lydian音階多了升4音。

西城故事最有名的片段,用到Lydian。在Disney音樂中也很常用到。

如果是四級大調和弦,通常會用到Lydian(因為Major #11)

例如Gmajor-Cmajor, C是G的四級,所以聲響上面還是都以G調為基礎,所以這邊的C就可以用到聲四音(#F)

The Modes In Detail - Dorian

Dorian is the mode that starts on the second scale degree of the major scale. So in the key of C play D to D.

Chinese Translation for Chinese students.
Dorian和 Ionian 的不同是,Dorian 降3音降7音
Dorian是最常在爵士樂中在小調和弦(Minor chord)中用到調式。II-V-I的和聲進行,II級幾乎都是用到Dorian。
(Tony示範各種不同爵士標準曲中(Standards)出現各種不同的Dorian聲音)

Part 2 of the Etude 'Vince Guaraldi' Etude with Chords

(This is a piece I wrote and have named it after the great composer Vince Guaraldi. The lead sheet is here, as well as an etude where you can work on different aspects of solo playing.)

Here's part 2 of this lesson. Go to the lesson listed above for more info.

Try not to look at this pdf until you've done part one of this lesson. That was to take the lead sheet and try and figure out the chords to the tune.

When you're ready look here and if you got it.

In part 3 of this etude, I'll talk about the etude and play the tune for you.
