twelve notes many many combinations many
00:01:01
chords many keys many styles which of
00:01:04
these twelve are going to use well
00:01:06
that's exactly but our gonna talk about
00:01:08
in this video grab your guitar we're
00:01:11
gonna get started right after this
00:01:12
[Music]
00:01:21
hello my name is David from the wall
00:01:24
woman guitar artistry welcome to this
00:01:26
channel which is all about helping
00:01:27
guitar players around the world develop
00:01:29
their musical personality there are a
00:01:32
few guidelines in music I was gonna say
00:01:35
rules but rules can be broken and it's
00:01:38
okay to break them this is an art form
00:01:40
this is a communication form this is a
00:01:43
storytelling game so of course we can
00:01:45
break the rules but we're gonna explore
00:01:47
those guidelines today we're gonna talk
00:01:50
a little bit about theory a tiny bit and
00:01:52
a lot about how what you play has a
00:01:56
profound impact on the listener and of
00:01:59
course also an impact on what you're
00:02:02
playing over we're going to talk all
00:02:03
about that now we're gonna use some
00:02:05
drones today a drone is a just a pitch a
00:02:08
standard pitch and we have a drone an a
00:02:11
today the one that you can hear right
00:02:13
now not very exciting but what do you
00:02:16
play over this is going to be brought to
00:02:19
life and there's a profound lesson that
00:02:23
we're gonna cover in a second now there
00:02:25
are several drones for you just like
00:02:26
this one and charts of recommended
00:02:28
scales that you can explore all that is
00:02:31
available for free the link is below
00:02:32
sign up once we'll get access to the
00:02:34
assets of this video and many other
00:02:36
assets on the channel completely free
00:02:38
alright so a quick reminder of what the
00:02:42
guideline of music is the guideline is
00:02:46
made of a series of different principles
00:02:49
but at its core we are interacting with
00:02:54
something it's an interaction game just
00:02:56
like when you're painting while you're
00:02:57
interacting with the paper you're adding
00:02:59
color and shapes to a piece of paper
00:03:01
just like when you are conversing with
00:03:04
someone you are interacting with that
00:03:06
someone and sometimes that someone is a
00:03:08
listener sometimes you become the
00:03:10
listener but it's an interaction game
00:03:12
same exact thing in music that
00:03:14
interaction has to do with what you are
00:03:17
delivering musically with what is being
00:03:21
heard now
00:03:23
that thing that's being heard could be
00:03:25
in a band situation or a jam with a
00:03:27
friend or a backing track or a simple
00:03:30
drone a backing track and it's simple
00:03:31
form right here so we are interacting
00:03:34
today over this that is our canvas a
00:03:37
blank piece of paper if you will that
00:03:39
we're gonna interact with and the first
00:03:41
touch with that paper with our pencil is
00:03:44
gonna direct the rest right okay so
00:03:49
right here we have that piece of paper
00:03:51
that you can hear and I'm gonna first
00:03:53
point of contact here a note that it's
00:03:56
going to determine other things okay
00:03:58
pick any notes it doesn't matter that
00:03:59
note is interacting with what is going
00:04:04
on in the back right it gives you a
00:04:06
feeling right maybe it's a feeling of
00:04:08
peace
00:04:11
or maybe it's a feeling of a little bit
00:04:14
of discomfort mystery you pick up what
00:04:18
it makes you feel and then it's a very
00:04:20
important thing I think you are in
00:04:23
control of what you want to deliver and
00:04:27
you are not allowed to tell someone you
00:04:30
should feel happiness here I've always
00:04:33
believed that music something personal
00:04:35
quick story I'm 42 when I was 17 I 18
00:04:42
graduated from high school yes I doubled
00:04:46
a year yes I was not a good student
00:04:48
started college started music college
00:04:50
after a couple months I was out of there
00:04:52
I I dropped out completely why well
00:04:56
because there was a course that I had to
00:05:00
follow in college on on music and at the
00:05:03
time you know I was just a young
00:05:04
rebellious teenager but the teacher said
00:05:11
this is the major third you should feel
00:05:14
happiness with that and that should
00:05:16
broke it for me how is out the next week
00:05:19
I dropped out of college and never never
00:05:22
looked back because of that music
00:05:24
something personal so keep that in mind
00:05:26
as you're playing I really do believe
00:05:27
that you say whatever you want musically
00:05:30
and people can receive it the way they
00:05:32
want okay that said what I played there
00:05:36
established something a mood whatever it
00:05:39
is now let's go with the rules of music
00:05:41
a tiny a little bit the guidelines again
00:05:43
I don't like the term rules with music
00:05:45
but typically when I say rule in music
00:05:48
what I'm referring to is the way that
00:05:51
people most of the people so more than
00:05:55
50% of people are gonna perceive this as
00:05:58
stable now what is this well it's the
00:06:01
principle of music where you need to
00:06:03
match musical elements together you need
00:06:06
to match intervals together so that
00:06:09
means that over a chord a three note
00:06:12
chord for example this it doesn't matter
00:06:15
what it is it's an image or try it three
00:06:18
notes here these three notes all have
00:06:20
functions and they resonate with each
00:06:21
other it gives you that feeling
00:06:25
whatever that feeling is now empowered
00:06:27
to play over this I have many many
00:06:29
choices I have 12 notes that I can play
00:06:31
but the quote-unquote rule guideline if
00:06:35
you want to be perceived as stable
00:06:38
acceptable pleasant by more than 50% of
00:06:41
the listeners you are going to want to
00:06:44
make sure that if you were to pick one
00:06:47
of these three notes in the scale it
00:06:49
needs to be that note now these notes
00:06:51
have different functions right intervals
00:06:53
in this case 1 3 5 this is the roots the
00:06:57
1 the major 3rd not the minor 3rd that's
00:07:01
different and a perfect fifth not
00:07:03
diminished 5th not a glinted fifth
00:07:05
perfect fifth that's what makes this
00:07:07
chord one three five roots maybe third
00:07:10
perfect fifth if in my solo or if as I'm
00:07:14
interacting if I'm becoming the pencil
00:07:16
and this is the piece of paper the sheet
00:07:20
of paper if over there over that a word
00:07:22
to play a third I need to play a major
00:07:25
third
00:07:27
that's stable if I played a minor third
00:07:30
over this that mat minor third over that
00:07:38
major third would be dissonance which is
00:07:43
an a feeling - it's not a bad feeling oh
00:07:46
it's not a pleasant feeling but it's not
00:07:47
a feeling you need to disregard but most
00:07:50
people are gonna perceive that as
00:07:51
dissonant okay that was the rule the
00:07:54
guideline the thing that you want to do
00:07:56
if you want to please most people you
00:07:58
don't have to okay now let's go back to
00:08:00
our drone here our drone here is the
00:08:03
piece of paper there's only one pitch
00:08:04
which means that really there are very
00:08:07
little places of error you might argue
00:08:10
there are no places of error over this
00:08:12
you can play anything if this is
00:08:14
considered the one the thing that
00:08:16
attracts everything else the magnets the
00:08:18
piece of paper then you can draw
00:08:20
anything on it right if it's a blank
00:08:22
piece of paper you can you can you can
00:08:25
draw a car a person a house a bird
00:08:29
doesn't matter right now if that piece
00:08:32
of paper had more notes it's kind of
00:08:35
like having a sheet of paper from a
00:08:38
coloring book where you have a car and
00:08:40
on that car if you decide to to
00:08:43
completely break the rules and instead
00:08:45
of following the lines of the car you
00:08:48
start drawing a face of a clown on a
00:08:51
bicycle you're gonna have two pictures
00:08:54
it's gonna be a little bit uncomfortable
00:08:55
that's okay
00:08:56
right all right so topic of this video
00:09:01
is which notes should you play well
00:09:03
really the notes you want but you need
00:09:05
to be aware of how that note is going to
00:09:07
make you feel because you are telling
00:09:11
the story and maybe in the background be
00:09:15
aware of what the note is going to make
00:09:16
them feel or you feel the listener feel
00:09:20
okay so the sheet the the pdfs are
00:09:23
recommended scale so if you're using the
00:09:25
a drone here which is that's the case
00:09:28
that's an ink
00:09:29
everything is gonna be attractive to
00:09:31
that pick one of these scales any that
00:09:33
starts in a and that's going to be your
00:09:36
guideline that's gonna start drawing a
00:09:38
picture over this blank sheet of paper
00:09:40
so if we are will consider that we ran a
00:09:43
Lydian again it's included in the charts
00:09:46
here but a Lydian is series of seven
00:09:48
notes a is the roots that's the
00:09:51
attraction that you can hear there
00:09:52
that's the piece of paper it tells you
00:09:54
okay we're using this size of piece of
00:09:56
paper and then the seven notes are one
00:09:58
two three four five six sharp seven
00:10:03
that's the formula okay that's the color
00:10:05
set you're using now you're gonna you
00:10:08
take that and start improvising over
00:10:10
playing some notes the good news is that
00:10:12
there's no rhythm you can play whatever
00:10:13
[Music]
00:10:22
each of these notes are part of the the
00:10:24
color set you are using if you land on
00:10:28
one that's what the listeners gonna
00:10:29
remember
00:10:33
and what you're gonna remember too
00:10:38
does that landing notes how does it make
00:10:40
you feel it doesn't make you feel like
00:10:43
okay I'm finished there goodbye thank
00:10:45
you very much I'm done with this song
00:10:47
thank you
00:10:48
or
00:10:51
no I need something else I need
00:10:56
thank you very much good night so it's a
00:11:00
series of good night and a series of
00:11:03
what so something like this that notes
00:11:12
which is the fourth the Augmented fourth
00:11:14
one two three Augmented fourth of the
00:11:16
Lydian mode could be a good night note
00:11:18
[Music]
00:11:22
thank you
00:11:23
good night you're still left a little
00:11:26
bit wondering maybe but that's okay or
00:11:27
maybe it could be a what note
00:11:35
huh well what do you mean what what I
00:11:40
mean this
00:11:43
[Music]
00:11:46
make sense okay so you need to be aware
00:11:50
of these notes when it makes you feel
00:11:55
and once you are you have more of a
00:11:58
perception of what these notes do
00:12:01
instead of building your story
00:12:03
[Music]
00:12:17
it's also great won't no way to to get
00:12:20
comfortable with the sound of these
00:12:21
modes so you can pick another scale that
00:12:24
doesn't have one two three sharp four
00:12:26
five six seven and experiment with that
00:12:29
one
00:12:30
maybe Dorian you know your new organist
00:12:33
I was gonna say that right
00:12:34
[Music]
00:12:44
it sounds different
00:12:50
[Music]
00:12:56
back to Lydia
00:12:58
[Music]
00:13:07
let's try some mixolydian so you can
00:13:09
look in your sheets it's gonna sound a
00:13:10
little different
00:13:11
[Music]
00:13:27
getting carried away but that's what I
00:13:30
want you to do to get carried away with
00:13:32
this
00:13:33
just just dive deep it's like a book a
00:13:35
really good book you're diving deep
00:13:37
you're going into different pathways and
00:13:39
the next chapter is something else
00:13:41
happens and then eventually both
00:13:43
chapters are combined and it becomes
00:13:45
something you knew makes sense of you
00:13:49
know you read this chapter that brought
00:13:51
brings a new light to the first one and
00:13:52
getting carried away again
00:13:54
but that's what I would love for you to
00:13:56
experiment get carried away and dive
00:13:59
deep into that musical canvas that
00:14:03
musical voyage that he can take again
00:14:05
the charts or some recommended charts
00:14:07
are available for you including the the
00:14:10
drones we worked in the key of a I think
00:14:12
this is a droning II maybe G you can
00:14:14
make your own you can get that below
