      It is rather more about the intervals in the scale and/or the character of its modes and less about the tonality, key or tonica. If you work with 12 semitones rather than 7 notes, you will understand the why of these odd alterations... I wish you a good evening!

    Hi Rick!
    I just finished the whole "Music Theory and Composition" playlist and I learned a lot from it.
    My favorite videos were:
    What Is Musical Gravity?
    Music Theory Lecture - What Every Pro Musician Needs To Know Pt 2
    Music Theory | Principles of Melody - Bebop Lines 1
    Music Composition: Dissonance = Emotion
    I'm an amateur and I already had a lot of assorted theory knowledge from books I read, and these four videos specifically did a great job at explaining how I'm supposed to actually apply this theory by talking about resolution tendency, "tonic->pre-dominant->dominant" progression and how to build a strong melodic line.
    I'm definitely going to keep up with all your new videos and when I thin out my reading list I'll be sure to check out the beato book as well. But first I have to finish Gradus ad Parnassum and Gardner Read's manual of modern practice.

    Hi Rick, I have a question. I'm trying to understand why double harmonic scale major and minor are a fourth apart (as opposed to minor third usually)? Essentially if you play the scale from fourth degree of double harmonic major you get double harmonic minor (Hungarian minor). Hope my question makes sense. I study music and I haven't been able to figure this one out. Thank you in advance. I love your channel! Cheers!

    • @PhiNickGaming
      @PhiNickGaming 7 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      DØVYDAS The reason the sixth mode of the double harmonic major scale doesn't make a minor scale is because the sixth scale degree forms an augmented triad (if you use C double harmonic as your base, the sixth degree is an Ab. The triad formed starting in Ab is Ab-C-E, an Ab augmented triad). The reason the fourth mode is Hungarian minor is because someone decided that would be its name due to it sounding like a scale used in traditional Eastern European music. That said, traditional Eastern European music tends towards microtonality, much like Middle Eastern music, so the Hungarian Minor scale is really just a 12TET approximation of its namesake. Hope this helps

    • @JoelPurnell
      @JoelPurnell 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Rick Beato Hi. Can I ask, why do you name the 3rd mode ‘ultra’ Phrygian? I’ve always referred to it as Super Phrygian Diminished or Super Phrygian bb7. Ultra as a term generally means the addition of a major 7th to create an octatonic scale ie. Ultra Mixolydian (Dominant Bebop scale). Bit confused as to the use of the word ‘ultra’ here.. Thanks. Beautiful pieces by the way!

  • @Soobysounds
    @Soobysounds 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I charted this for guitar and as I started improvising melodies and building chords with it, it basically just sounded like diminished with an "avoid" note. Putting that avoid note in is really the only thing that distinguishes the modes from each other as they all have that one missing note in a different interval relative to the mode (or the tonic or bass tone sounding.) It seems like the trick is to develop a simple melody - the easiest being over a major or minor chord (there are several available) - then to harmonize that melody with the other stranger notes in the scale. The results can be magic - accessible yet off in a good way. Thank You for this Rick and Nahre. I already got a few new pieces out of it. Awesome

  • @modularmuse
    @modularmuse 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's interesting to me the way they describe major and minor scale sounds as we're learning music, sometimes comparing them - as major keys are 'happy' and minor keys are 'sad'. Then you hear this 'double harmonic major' and it's so moody and complex, dark and beautiful at the same time. It makes me think of artists like Giger. Great presentation.

      They sound like names from some complicated fantasy universe that takes place across 10 books that are all at least 600 pages long. XD And I keep thinking of like, "hell" or "the underworld" when I hear the name "Phrygian"...and then I realise I actually mean STYGIAN. Heh. I kind of want to name, I dunno, maybe a family of Sims after the modes now. "Here are my daughters, Lydia, (already a name), Ionia, Myxolydia, Doria, Aeolia, Phrygia and Locria." (I've already done weirder, with Sim names.)
      And then their styles...Lydia would be like, a mystical elf princess in white with flowing hair (Galadriel)...or a super-peppy Valley Girl!, haven't decided...Ionia would be, like, a basic beyatch, pass the pumpkin spice latte? Myxolydia would be a jaded hipster in baggy grunge clothes, Doria would be the fantasy nerd of the bunch who dresses in medieval clothes and puts her hair in complicated braids all the time, Aeolia would be like the emo opera chick with her hair in her face and flowing, gauzy black gowns (why did I suddenly just picture Maven of the Eventide), Phrygia would be all spikes, black leather and multiple piercings,and Locria...would just straight-up look like the killer out of a slasher film. Because to me Locrian doesn't just sound dark. It sounds dark and DERANGED.
      ...is it wrong that I kind of want to (attempt to) draw this now?

    This is why people need to compose in more scales.

    The E double harmonic major sounds like the soundtrack of a film about an evil Don Quixote.

    I'd love to see you cover more modes and scales in a musical way after explaining the triads and harmonies.
    I'm in love with the (Lydian #2 #6).

    I absolutely love the double harmonic major and all the modes. years ago when I learned these it really darkened my metal guitar work . some really cool chords are hidden in there . at first I just played fifth power chords on every tone but was never happy with the results. it worked but I started coming up with much cooler riffs when I found some useful ideas with the chords from the modes
