So sad to have to accept the passing of Pat. His music plays a big part in our family. My little 11 year old niece actually wrote her book report on his biography. I had been in contact with his booking agent to bring him to Texas before the pandemic and his illnesses.
Mr. Martinos parental form concept expanded my understanding of harmony exponentially. Absolutely revalutionary. This process of lowering notes from diminished to automatically reveal all of the different qualities of seventh chords in all of their inversions just like a crystal expanding out from the center. Thank you Pat.
So helpful - thank you - a master player breaking down info into simple blocks in a manner that explains so much that lesser players can follow. This is the best chord grouping/ voicing lesson I have found and first I have seen that uses the dismissed as the key to unlocking the vault.- invaluable.
I think it's a great way to learn and appreciate progress. Watching content that is so far out, only to return to it years later and find that you've now reached a point where it makes sense and really .. just confirms what you may already now know. I've had the same experience with this video myself.
I had that VHS and the other volume back when I was a teenager in the mid 90's. I get them from an ad from Guitar World magazine. Took me years to understand Jazz guitar but I get it thanks to Pat Martino, Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell, John McLaughlin and Al Di Meola instructional videos.
Guys Pat needs our help. He is very sick and has exhausted his savings. Please support this legendary artist on his GoFundMe campaign, and by buying all his materials. I have just spent around $300 on Pat's materials and donated on GoFundMe.
Yes. You can also play a minor7flat5 from the 3rd of a Dominant 7 and a Major 7 from the 7th of a Dominant its all still Mixo but Pat says he does not think of it modaly like this. Also if you play a minor Major7 from the fifth of the Dominant it gives you a #11.
Here’s a quick look at Martino’s “SYMMETRICAL PARENTAL FORMS”. There are 2; they are “symmetrical” because the 3-note Augmented triad is based on 3 major 3rds, and the 4-note Diminished 7th chord is based on 4 minor 3rds. 1) Play 554 on GBE for C+ or Caug. Lower any one note by one fret; you “parent” 3 different major triads; raise it instead, you “parent” 3 minor triads (and the relative minors). 2) Now play 4545 on the DGBE for a Diminished 7th chord. Lower any note? Form 4 different Dominant 7th chords. Raise it instead? Form 4 different Half-Dim7 chords (min7b5). - Martino has discovered some essential aspects of the guitar. Who else noticed these things? Only Pat!
Question for you brainiacs...i always thought the dom 7th strongly links with the 1 chord (ie: E7 to Amaj/m) but Pat's saying to play a minor a 4th below (ie: Bmin7 scale for E7) which would make it a Dorian if maj or locrian if minor. Am I right? And more importantly, why lol?
He likes the minor arpeggio. It highlights nice tones on that dominant. The Vmin of the V7. It also leads to the Imaj I think. Just slide down a whole tone …
Here is how think about it: Your example was Bmin7 over E7. The Bmin7 arpeggio is used as a substitution OVER E7. That means that our root note (= 1) is still E. Bmin7 consists of the notes B, D, F# and A. In relation to the root note E, the intervalls of these notes are 5, 7, 2 and 4. On the one hand, one could think that this sound is quite ambiguous since there is no 3rd. On the other hand, the underlying harmony (E7) gives us the information of the major 3rd. Therefore the mode is still mixolydian. What is more, the usage of a minor arpeggio over a dominant 7th chord in the explained relation doesn't change its function as a dominant chord. So the link to the 1 chord is still there. This is not a contradiction. Hope this helps.
@@juliangitarre4196 that is brilliant, Julian. So in essence, the combination of the dom7 chord and the min scale highlights all its colours. Thanks so much
farewell Pat thanks for all the lessons and music...and your inspiring thoughts!

It's great to see this- such a great loss that he's no longer with us. Inspiring and motivating.
Martino is a guitar legend, absolutely out of this world.

Barry Harris talks about this same idea, I think he calls it the family of dominants.

I watched this years ago... it was over a lot to absorb. Now it makes perfect sense. I’ll never look at a dominant chord the same way I did again.

Thanks for the upload! Greatly appreciate it
R.I.P. now Pat
Zappa held his arms and hand in the same position as Pat. What a great player and loss to the world. Your music is here forever though.
32:49 I was here for this information. Thank you Pat 🙏 Thank you @Sonorous
Thanks for sharing! This is gold.
You're welcome
Excelente! Muchas Gracias! Que buen guitarrista
Rip to a legend
A True Master! R.I.P.

Thanks for great video !
I think he is talking Same about Barry harris s family of 4dominant chord concept.
He converted Dorian mode for that.
I like when he uses the phrase “areas of activity”, which seems so casual and simplistic, yet is anything but.
Simplesmente fantástico!!!
53:19 That is magic! I which Pat would record some solo pieces, I love his solo arrangements.
This is AMAZING! Thank you!!!!!!
I've never heard him speak - such a deep voice!
33:35 just blew my mind: You can play minor scale licks starting from the fifth of a dominant 7th to get a mixo sound. OMG
Yes. You can also play a minor7flat5 from the 3rd of a Dominant 7 and a Major 7 from the 7th of a Dominant its all still Mixo but Pat says he does not think of it modaly like this. Also if you play a minor Major7 from the fifth of the Dominant it gives you a #11.
Yep. Nothing new at all. Something Wes did all the time. And Pat transcribed from Wes.
Also if you play Dm over G7 you are simply playing D Dorian over G mixo. They are modes of the same scale! (C Maj)
Here’s a quick look at Martino’s
“SYMMETRICAL PARENTAL FORMS”.
There are 2; they are “symmetrical” because the 3-note Augmented triad is based on 3 major 3rds, and the 4-note Diminished 7th chord is based on 4 minor 3rds.
1) Play 554 on GBE for C+ or Caug.
Lower any one note by one fret; you “parent” 3 different major triads; raise it instead, you “parent” 3 minor triads (and the relative minors).
2) Now play 4545 on the DGBE for a Diminished 7th chord.
Lower any note?
Form 4 different Dominant 7th chords.
Raise it instead?
Form 4 different Half-Dim7 chords (min7b5).

Who else noticed these things? Only Pat!
Spontanious combustion is right!!...ouff!!...the guy is (or was unfortunately, may he rest in peace) on fire!!...absolute master!!...
"i have equalisation from the pick itself"...genius
I have this on VHS
Love the find the chords to the "unknown named" beautiful ballad Pat plays in the middle of his clip piece ,,,,,Anyone?
After slowing down the video I noticed the swing those fast lines have.
wow my mind has been blown
it's funny, when you first start learning harmony all this seems like a lot. after you learn some harmony, this stuff is kind of like, yeah of course.
so overwhelming as a guitarist until piano helped connect the dots :)
Thank you.
Amazing
TRUE FIRE as this material in a much better quality. It is called The Nature of guitar 🎸
His voice is deeper than it is now.
The PDF of the book doesn't open, says that file is corrupted or damaged. The Blue Bossa transcription works, could you re-upload the book? Thanks
Thanks for pointing that out. I tested and uploaded a new archive. Check the link in the description of the video. Cheers!
@@SonorousMusic Works now, thank you!
@@SonorousMusic Thanks Sonorous so much for this. It's really a great resource!
Thanks
Could anyone please tell me if the changes at the beginning of the video have a name? Like a song name
I think it’s have you got a name which is what the doctors said to him when he came round after his aneurysm
@@tunaficiency Thanks, but that's not it. I'll just have to buy the Live at Ethel's place album, since I think that's where the performance was.
I thnk it's Slipback
I had a look and couldn’t find the live from ethels place vid which used to be on TH-cam with all 3 pieces sorry
Does anyone have part 2 ?
I have been looking for it. Might have it soon. I'll upload it if I get it. You can buy the DVD on eBay for $20 that has both part 1 and 2.
Sonorous thanks, I bought the dvd some time ago but misplaced it. Late last night I found a a copy of it on my iPod classic 🤘🏼💀🤘🏼. Thanks brother.
any luck with part 2?
I've got a copy of it overdubbed in Russian. Better than nothing, but I'm still looking for the English version.
Here it is 😁
wow just the first 30 minute are like a month of study

@@jonting7847 interesting. Thanks Jon
his explanation and playing are so explicit it's like the porn of jazz music.
Amazing……lesson……..
simplifying complex ideas!

"melodic stATEMENT OF PERSONNAL USE"
"Putting out dimensions of power" 😆
These are definitely condensed into melodic statements of personal use. Wouldn't have it any other way Pat!!!!
Not sure about that jumper to be honest.
The 80s had a devastating effect on fashion
Thanks for this upload! Pat Martino plays amazing lines.
Check out the unbelievable improv from this kid

Those guitar chord stabs sound like a dog barking.
Amazing
