Giannakopoulos: Is blues scale not supposed to be a member of the jazz family?not really, blues scale is more advanced and appealing than the jazz |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Giannakopoulos(f): 12:56pm On Aug 02, 2014 |
gameboi: not really, blues scale is more advanced and appealing than the jazzIt should be bc blues scales are built from Jazz chords in which we have minor 3rds, flat 5,dom 7 etc,and when one plays the blues scales ,mostly its backed up by playing tritones or jazzy chords on ur left,so I know blues scales are just scales cropped from Jazz chords and its part of jazz,u be my Oga but I follo sabi dis 1 small |

Anybody pay much attention to the modes? Especially the mixylodian? |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Giannakopoulos(f): 10:13pm On Aug 02, 2014 |
gameboi: Lol... But have you ever wondered why most keyboardist find it hard to play it?Yes mostly bc jazz isn't really our culture & a listener that doesn't know music would feel you are not playing the right thing,ie most times I don't over-play by using all those chords,I limit the way I use them so as not to confuse the singer or listeners,dunno why others wouldn't play. |

But I once played amazing grace in blues form for a church and the choirmaster of the church was like '' are you the one that plays the background and theme song in tom and Jerry?'' 4 Likes |

jcgodfrey:ehen you already know what im saying |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Nobody: 3:45pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
Dramadiddy: yeah.. any questions?When would you choose the mixylodian over the other modes (what kind of emotion would it portray)...and which chord(s) would you play to accompany the mixylodian? Thanks... |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Dramadiddy(m): 3:58pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
CoolHunk:errrr it depends on what what you want to portray sounds like to you... something that is generally sad might sound very happy to me... that aside, a mixolydian can be used over any mode but from the book it states that a mixolydian is used as a dominant which is the fifth degree of the scale... the chords I would like to use on as mixolydian scale would be a minor and a dominant chord.. fifths are normally used as transitions to the Ionian mode which is the one. fifth can be used as a transition from the fifth to the one to the four... which is a 5-1-4 progression.. of course you know that as degrees change, scales change... |

Thanks. But I don't get what you mean by "as degrees change, scales change". I think modes are more likely to change, rather than scales when chord degrees change. I might be wrong, though. Could you know name your favourite altered/unaltered chords to replace the dominant when trying to achieve some sort of cadence? Thanks! |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Dramadiddy(m): 5:15pm On Aug 06, 2014 |
CoolHunk:as degrees change scales change, you are right and I'm also right, the mode scales are not the only scales in Music so there you have it.. chords I use to replace the dominant are the Gdom b9, Gmaj7#5, Gdom13b9, etc,.. you can work out with extensions and discover more chords... you can extend by trying out minor chords too |
Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Dramadiddy(m): 5:30pm On Aug 06, 2014 |
guys I've been thinking of this since... if I could make my left hand do C G Bb E, I would be able to play the largest chord extensions the same time having a full sound... although im not in Lagos now but when I get back I'll try it out |

The chords work pretty well for resolving to the tonic chord. |

So I'm leaving my present church now to another place that's somehow close to my house and I think it would be a good idea to tell them that I stay far away... If they know you stay around, they'll want you to come for all the services... By the way, they hold vigils every Friday.. So I need your help guys.. And the pay is nice coupled with the closeness of the church to my house |

Dramadiddy: Eiyawhat do you mean by 'Eiya'? The churches I play for usually offer to pay me and I'll agree but After church service I'll disappear. There are Implications in Requesting for money to serve God. And besides the only ocassions where I collect money are during Wedding Receptions. 1 Like 1 Share |

House,how can one cope with a church sound manager(an elderly person),who knows nothing about sound and can't play any instrument but goes on to set the mixer up & down,and would NEVER accept instructions from the instrumentalists no matter what you say,is it possible to cope as a good player,knowing too well that without a good sound set-up,you may be reduced to just an average player because some skills you do (runs,straddle,even some chords etc) may not be heard by the audience. 1 Like |
