Adam brings structure while Peter brings the always look ahead chaos that keeps things moving forward. That's a great partnership right there.

Every musician needs a friend like Adam Maness, He knows all the theory. :)) Thank you guys, you really complement each other.

Wow the little blues improvisation is too cool. He floats through those changes so nicely and the whole mood changes when he goes from mixo to lyd dom

I love this show! It makes me feel like a regular guy listening to a sports radio or TV show, but instead of sport (which I don't really like that much), they talk about my favorite subject in the entire universe and my life: Music!! Genius!

I feel so refreshed with you guys starting in Db. My theory teacher always starts the class in c major and it can be so far from stimulating sometimes. Lovin' the podcast as usual! Be safe, be healthy!

hi, i'm sorry having to disappoint you, but it's totally obvious that the guys chose Db7#11 for demonstration as that's the tritone sub for the V chord in C MAJOR - they just forgot to mention ;-) best, andy

Another observation: Lyd Dom (4th Mel Min mode) is a tritone away from Alt (7th Mel Min mode). 10:33 I just noticed that for a V/V in F, the A triad over the G7 root/shell can move down to either Ab/C7, matching C alt or Ab/Gb7, matching Gb Lyd Dom Either way, tritone substitution or V, you're borrowing from the same Db Melodic Minor... before landing on F again.

Peter was funny in this video. That smoothie was helping him break free.

Thanks guy. We live in an era where knowledge is very accessible. It has come a long way from when I had to save up my money as a student for Aebersold play along books and transcription ect. Everything is out. Thanks for the sharing.

OK I just say it: I deeply love your classes. The humor, the connection, the essence of jazz: you guys are killing it in every video.

Great concepts and playing, as always. Great setup, too. I use the Lydian Chromatic Concept by George Russel and this fits very well within that system. For anyone just learning minor scales, note this. Take a Major Scale and raise the tonic note a half-step, you get the melodic minor scale a whole step above the original, unaltered tonic note. I found this a very easy way to play begin playing (years ago) melodic minor scales. CDEFGABC (C Major) becomes C#DEFGABC#D (D Melodic Minor). It's one little side bit of wisdom I found in George's book. Thanks for the lessons and inspiration.

Adam and Peter at it AGAIN! This was super helpful, thanks guys!

Your level is mindblowing guys... The blues with lyd dom was wow. This sucks because it makes me want to transcribe it all knowing that i cant do it ahahah. Great!

I love your content. One of the best channels for the practicing jazz musician!

Always love those intro battles!

one of my favorite lessons so far, so useful

Thank you gentlemen, this came at the perfect time for me!

hey Peter, hey Adam, i'd like to add 2 further very common domains for lydian dominants: 1. bVII7 - often referred to as the 'backdoor dominant'. in the key of C this would be Bb7#11. The lydian dominant scale would share most of the notes of the C major scale, except Bb and Ab. i think of this chord/scale as a derivate of the minor subdominant of the key (which would be Fm6 with a melodic minor scale). 2. IV7 - the lydian dominant is also often used as a variation of the regular subdominant - which would be Fmaj7 with a lydian scale - by flattening its major7 (E) to dominant7 (Eb) while keeping all the other notes of the C major scale (F7#11 with F lydian dominant scale), you get a nice tension to move back from when coming back to the I chord. Also, when using the lydian dominant on the II chord (as a V of V), it's very convincing to resolve it to the regular IIm7 first before going to the V chord. think of *take the 'a' train*, where the #11 of the II7#11 chord is given by the melody followed by the 5th of the IIm7 chord. best, andy

What do you call that when you look at minor subdominants? Someone I've studied with calls this "harmonic regions." For an example, in the key of C C Root region Cmaj7 Em7 Am7 Dominant G7 Bm7b5 Em Subdominant maj Fmaj7 Bbmaj7 Dm7 Subdominant min Fm7 Fm6 (Dm7b5 add 9, 11) FmM7 Bbsus Bb9 Abmaj7 Dbmaj7 Cm Root region Cm Ebmaj7 Gm7 Dominant G7 G7b13 Bm7b5 Relative maj Ebmaj7 Subdominant Abm7 Abm6 AbmM7 Fm7b5 add 9, 11 Dbsus Db7 Bmaj7 Emaj7 The dominant and subdominant are interchangeable and any of the dominant and subdominant paths can resolve to either Cmaj and Cm. I'm trying to make sense of all this, maybe you could help me.

@@loupgarou39 hi Brandon, thanks for asking me. maybe your question arose as i mentioned the 'minor subdominant'... if you were 'beaten round the head' with just that list without further detail on how to apply it, i'd hesitate to call that 'teaching'. maybe you were not - who am i to judge. i don't mean that concept is wrong or worthless, i think it's just too wide-ranging to be put in a nutshell like that. if you can't make sense of any part of that concept, why further bother about it. if there are parts that are grasped by you, stay with those. to get back to the 'minor subdominant' (in major keys!) - i think of it as of an extension of the regular (major) subdominant - or the 'subdominant region' as you called it. in the key of C, the 'plagal cadence' (amen cadence) would be F - C, or Fmaj7 - Cmaj7. you could extend the subdominant region by inserting the minor subdominant before resolving to the I chord: Fmaj7 - Fm6 - Cmaj7. you could then replace the IVm6 chord by bVII7 (which is in fact the same voice-leading with just another bass note) Fmaj7 - Bb7#11 - Cmaj7. also, you could replace the I chord by IIIm7 (an extension of the 'tonic region') Fmaj7 - Fm6 - Em7 or Fmaj7 - Bb7#11 - Em7. An example to use these possibilities is *All of Me*, bars 25-27. best, andy

@@jazzyoutfit6670 It's a concept that I keep discovering new things off. Sure it's challenging but it definitely broadens my concept of V-! or tension and release. I'm trying to find out if people call this something different or if there are different ways of looking at it. Ah! I see! The iv7 (and the bVII7) can replace V7 as a "back door" progression. Are you familiar with Barry Harris' Family of Dominants? It says that V7 chord can be replaced by dominant 7th chords that are a minor 3rd a part. For an example, in the key of C major the family of dominants would be G7, Bb7, Db7, E7. You can look at their related ii7 chords and find that they would ordinarily resolve to either the C or it's relative minor (Am) by being either a V7 or bII7 chord. Sorry for the long post. I'm excited to nerd out with someone about jazz theory during this quarantine.

I think of it as 2 min7b5 a whole tone about just because you can use min6 inversions stacked wholetone so really cool triad pairs that way Dmin7/ G7/ C6 Dmin6 Emin6 flipping through descending inversions up one down other with drop 4 ( with arpeggios in between the drop 2 voicings) Then again you can use Abmin6 Bbmin6 in same way ( for G7 also just like Dmin6 Emin6

W O W !!!!! Thanks sooooo much. Somehow this video finally gave me the connection of the Lydian Dominant and it's use. I'm a guitarist and I can now SEE the notes and shapes. 😃🤎🤩🤘💯

That is a great story in the end. I guess a lot of us out there think that because we know the stuff intellectually, we are able to play it. That is true, but we stil have to practice to be able to play;o) Because of the virus spreading around the world, I make up small lines to my students and try to encourage them to play them around all 12 keys. Even if it is only one or two bars of music, I think it is better to learn to "practice in all 12 keys" Thanks for all the great stuff and inspiration guys.

Most effective as a passing chord or as a 1 chord. Dominant????

This tune was composed using math. The fraction 4/37 in base 10 comes out to these numbers in base 12, which can be played in the chromatic scale to reveal this tune. It's literally billions of years old, and popular with all civilizations across the Universe. Enjoy, and please cover this, shred some wild solos, and post a video.

"...touch your instrument 15 minutes a day."

Adam ,the Madness... Why is it that musical educators have gone the long way around renaming all the modes like 'Lydian dominant" when and in fact it is just the Dorian mode with raised 3rd and fourth intervals?It's because they are too lazy when it gets to those two alterations of the melodic minor.It's ultra confusing and elitist. Of course, it's no easy task to re-arrange all those notes in your mind when the root is raised, that I admit is also difficult.It is still a poor compromise. I mean no one renames the Aeolian mode where it's primary use is. Re-naming the Ionian mode to the 'lydian augmented " is just a barbaric butchering of the musical language and a great excuse for not using the true Mixolydian and Lydian mode .I'm just a student of your chanel,thanks, and also a guitarist,but I feel that a change may be on the horizon someday and these misleading shortcut's will become obsolete.
