Description: Advanced scale THEORY about the 7 harmonic minor modes - an easy TOOL to look up the modes - and some practical improvisation TIPS by the end of the lesson. We compare the 7 modes with nearby scales to learn the characteristics and we find out when to use the modes; on what chords we can play the specific modes. Then I introduce a smart tool to look up all harmonic minor modes in any key!!! By the end of the lesson we learn some easy practical techniques to improvise over the scales. The harmonic minor modes Aeolian#7 (harmonic minor) Locrian#6 Ionian#5 (Major#5) Dorian#4 Phrygian#3 (Phrygian Major/dominant) Lydian#2 Mixolydian#1 (Altered dominant bb7) Tool to look up the harmonic minor modes (PDF): newjazz.dk/xtra/harmonic_minor_modes_tool.pdf Similar tool to look up all the church modes: newjazz.dk/musik/CircleOfChurchModes/CircleOfChurchModes.pdf Similar tool to look up the melodic minor modes: newjazz.dk/xtra/mel_mi_tool.pdf Backing track used in this lesson (MP3): newjazz.dk/xtra/Eb_IonianSharp5_BackingTrack.mp3 Subscriber Jeffrey Kunka made a really smart interactive version of the mode wheels, available for both Windows and Mac computers.
