Well, please keep it up. You caught a subscriber.

Fantastic lesson. Best music teacher on the internet.

Great video! So much good stuff!

This channel continues to surprise me every day. Never could imagine all the finesses behind certain melodies. Never seen such an high level on internet until now.

That 1 6 2 5 melody sounds like a catchy commercial.

awesome page with great material Rick. I come from a flamenco and rock background and have been struggling with burying my old bad studying habits. Now I am jumping a bit into jazz and simply love it. To be able to become more fluent with my musical vocabulary is a huge motivation and allows me to enjoy music even more. I've found your videos extremely helpful, and I realize now more and more which are the strong foundations that I'll like to have as a musician and with hard work I do start to see some good results. Thanks again, really nice work. Greetings from a Costarican guy who lives in Munich and loves flamenco,haha Cheers!

This helped me in so many ways. I finally got my head around the circle of fifths recently and that got me listening to jazz which led me to yourself thankfully. This one lesson has opened the door for me to understanding chord progressions that mean something or are telling a story. I thank you. I owe you a glass of fine western isle whisky.

Rick! Another amazing video my man! Those grace notes are such a distinct component of Pat's sound and I could never figure out how the heck he does that. Thank you for this and for everything you do. I appreciate ya

The "TRANE" was a a genius ! You Mr. Beato, have an excellent ear, and more importantly, the ability to express you're knowledge to us all ! Thank you ! While realizing it's a descending line,as a guitar player, I would have chose to raise it by minor thirds of the 1 chord, and THAT would have sent me in the wrong direction. Love you're teaching methods, thank you again !

I would suggest to everyone to get the "Beato Book" asap! Beato is hell of a musician.

What you call Guide Notes, I figured out years ago in my playing on my own and started calling them Target Notes. In fact was just teaching my daughter to hear them in solos, using a Tom Scott sax solo. I guess I pushed myself into that partial pitch memory space that you mention in your Perfect Pitch series through my playing by ear by and sticking with it long enough to start hearing the intervals really really well, to the point now that I can change keys in jazz tunes I like a lot. I can just hear the new pitch(es) involved. Your videos have been fascinating to me, because I've pushed myself so far down this path and started ignoring even the names of notes I'm playing to where I can't even tell you what key or scale I'm playing, but by just finding usually a single note anywhere in the song, and matching that pitch on the guitar anywhere, I can play along with the melody, unless it gets really complex melodically, or certainly very modal, and very quickly improvise over it, using smooth jazz as my favorite genre. My ear has learned to be a master at determining any scale I hear I can replicate simply by my ear knowing where the whole and half steps are is the only way I can explaing it. Yet I know i'ts not perfect pitch, as I've tried to hum certain tones and miss. This has become tremendous fun for me, and since I'm not trying to make money from music, I've become (now that I know how to officially name it) very comfortable creating antecedent and consequent based melodies against chord progressions that appeal to me in jazz. I know there are a lot of methods out there that seek to teach playing by ear, but I've thought of trying to add my thoughts to the body of knowledge by creating a course as I might express it differently than others which may help someone, since it is such tremendous joy for me to create music that appears in my head, while I'm listening to songs I like. I've also tried to push this ability forward for me, knowing that we all have basic musical memory (starting with knowing what song was next on the album, right?). So what I've tried to do is listen to a solo that's playing in a song, and a few notes behind it, recreate that solo verbatim, while at the same time taking in the notes being played now in the background of my recreation, so that when it's time to play them, I will be able to. It's certainly a challenging exercise and I'm in no way suggesting I can do it with great facility (perhaps Dylan can...). But I came up with the concept from programmers, that have a concept called a "bit bucket" where data is stored in it's sequential order, to be retrieved later after some delay. You can think of it as a digital delay line, but note pitches are what is going in, and it's all happening in real time. It would be interesting to me if you knew or tested whether Dylan has this ability. We've surely both seen the savant videos where after hearing a complex musical passage, just by ear these autistic savants can immediately recreate it from memory, after only hearing it once. I'd be curious whether you've incorporated some of this into higher level training for Dylan. I am fascinated by what the upper boundaries are of the human brain and your work has been fascinating. I only regret not having run across it when my daughter was still a baby... thanks

Love You Man!!!! You are the Best!!! Thx Rick.

I declare you a national treasure!! That was a fantastic lesson.

Thanks, Rick. Your lessons are priceless.

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Very much appreciated.

I want to hear Beato's confidently wholly projected voice. He gave a great secret away when he said the periodicity of the sound captures attention.

Came here accidentally after seeing your kids' AMAZING skills you helped them develop. I actually have a 5 month old son and would like to teach him the language of music but unfortunately even after some music studies I graduated from - I don't feel like I have the right knowledge and idea. When I saw you can also play the guitar and share SO much about how and why use specific phrazes and lines I am just left speechless. You have a new subscriber here in Poland. :) Cheers!

Thank You. Thank You. Thank You, for all of the incredible knowledge you are sharing. Just... Thanks...

Thank you, Rick!!!!! This was a fantastically helpful video!!

this is very valuable information. Thank you Rick so much!

Thanks so much for the lesson Rick, you have given me a few months worth of meditation and practice

Digging that first example....very "Bossa 60s elevator music", which, looking back over 50 years, was a lot cooler than i gave it credit for at the time

I'm in awe !!!

Written down makes it easyer so I do it. Predictable Lines with new surprising new things.Great Examples.

This is great and it seems you're really enjoying doing it! Thanks for the lesson.

I'm a drummer and a huge Metheny fan and I just find your videos fascinating to watch.

You are the best, thanks for your lessons master. i'm seeing rhythm and changes on my college, that information its so important

The less number of views on a video of this channel = just more quality information for the rest of us.

Great lesson. I came from your film scoring videos. Big classical nerd but I love jazz! Especially orchestral jazz. I would love to see you do a video on how to get some jazzy sounds from an orchestra such as in Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue or John William's Cantina song. Thanks & Subscribed!

Great video. I particulary like the emphasis on being able to sing what you play. That's the key thing

Many melodic ideas I'll note...thanks! and should we hear personal singing well inspired from these.

Thanks, Rick.

Great lessons!!!!!

Wes played all those fast lines with only his thumb. Dayum!

Awesome man, subscribed

Great video.

very nice, thank you

Great stuff Rick! so it seems that a lot of it has to do with repeating rhythmic ideas and melodic direction, maybe with some variation on it.

fantastic video!

Greetings from chile teacher very good contribution

Great stuff. Hey Rick, I loved what you did regarding the white noise/ambience of the snare and the kick of famous old producers. With your patreon it stated there were downloads available. Do you have your own version of these samples of the white noise/ambience to overlap/tune/gate over my drum editing? If I pay via patreon would I get access to these finished samples?

love the line at 5.50 something

Nice

Great vid Rick. But since everyone is not a guitar player and theory/intervals etc are really difficult to see on a guitar, my suggestion as a former teacher would be to do all theory/scales/harmonization on a piano as the piano is by far the easiest instrument to see and learn these things on. Thank again :-)

Hi Rick, can you improvise these lines on the fly knowing every interval you hit? or use scale based lines with target notes. Dont think my brain would process that fast.

Great lesson,thank you! (If you can write the chords always on the screen, then we could follow you even easier.)

YES

Wow! 1-2-3 hammer-ons and doubled notes. I l-o-v-e-d this, Rick! I'm excited about the next episodes. There's more I want to know about climaxes, intricate interlines, how to structure a compelling predictive-natured melody and propelling a melody forward. I'm wondering if a descending melody can propel or does it overridingly create a winding down sort of mood. Thank you!!! Pétra. P.S. I have a question. In the "Blues For Pat" excerpt, and I think in all Pat Metheny's music, his timing placement of notes is sometimes ever so slightly not on whole beats, half beats etc., which gives it that delayed kind of feel. I don't mean the grace notes. It seems so precise, is he thinking demisemiquaver rests?

Hello, Rick! Very Interesting chanel, subcscribed! But I have a question, could you advice smth about creating an intros, but not like the ordinary staff. Im composing a huge project which consists of three parts for 10-15 minutes each one and I've almost finished it, but I have no idea what to do in the intro. Instruments are piano cello drums bass and guitar (steel and electro). I was thinking of it as a jazz fusion composition, but using a lot of film scoring things. But I stucked with an intro, would you be so kind to share a trick or two? =)

Are you able to add pdfs of your guitar and piano examples at some point? Thanks,

I'm not sure I understand... maybe your sense of intuition is a bit different to mine. The Coltrane solo at the end sounds like it's going to go to the C to me, not the Eb, because it seems like it's going to keep descending. I understand unifying your solo through rhythmic motifs, but I don't really understand the concept of anticipating notes, given that there are a number of phrases that can follow a phrase. I'm probably overthinking, but could you elaborate please? I can't find much more information about this concept

Did Bach have 2 minor b5? I need to get into my Bach. :)

hi 26.5.17 Saludos. Gracias.

Bach was very hip 😎

"Bach was very hip" ... lol ... great quote !! ..... very dope !! yes he was !! your vids are awesome !! Thanks bruh

I am watching this over and over and keep wondering if you could make exactly the same video analysing how to produce a melodic phrase as above but from the modal point of view. E.g. in a II-V-I in C major how can we alter D dorian G mixolydian and C Ionian to get something interesting keeping nice resolutions? Similarly for a minor II-V-I? I think that would be a nice idea for a video :)

Your comment confuses me. In the videos where you sit by the piano or strings this is the way you are trying to communicate modal harmony. A lot of those videos are about jazz music too. Therefore I assume, also from what I know and have seen in other videos, that jazz guitarists also think modally. Am I wrong? At least I have started thinking this way when I try to improvise or construct some melody over the chords. Sorry for the misunderstanding!

How can I learn this kinda stuff?

what is the name of the piece by bach in 1:23.

Wow Rick, I was just thinking about this today and you post a video on it,so crazy! Here is the track that I thought about Animal as Leaders - Tempting Time (0:53-0:55), then again at (1:03-1:06) kzread.info/dash/bejne/rGmJpLVmqdXSlrg.html To me its sounds like he ends phrases on a weak cadence because the lead has an incomplete feeling and from 1:06 on he resolves and its like Ahhhhhh Is that what you meant? Also I have a burning question for you that I think you can help me on my music journey Will send you the email tonight. I love these videos specially the ones about modes,inversion,tone-leading, counterpoint, modulation and poly-rhythms. My fav channel so far, thank you for the time you took Rick!

It seems that I still can't appreciate jazz, improve, etc ... because they make sentences but they don't tell me a story ... they just bla bla bla, and give me headache each and every time ... Still i like to watch these videos to learn to write better melodies in my music.

You're great but your tone really irks me

+Rick Beato Nah man I'm just being picky. I appreciate you. I was curious if you've ever done a video about fixed-do vs movable-do solfege and which system Dylan prefers since he has perfect pitch. Thanks for the videos
