I remember learning this in high school. There's no way around it: learning jazz theory can make you feel like your head is exploding. It's an incredibly enriching experience to learn, very few people get the chance to do it.
having played with groups/bands of various styles,many without charts i have,in the main supported what others are playing,ari,s easy style is helpful in expanding my horizons,maybe my solos can include some variations in future.
if anyone is playing a tritone sub of C7, Gb7. i would recommend a scale that contains a C in it, Lydian b7 scale is what we called it at my school. Gb Ab Bb C Db Eb Fb take care and happy playing
Great lesson! Any idea of the origin of "important diminished" and "important minor"? Never heard about it in classical harmony, only in maybe Berry Harris masterclass. Just a curiosity, thanks
I've been a musician for 40 years, and have never heard of the "Important minor." Not sure I understood it. Is it a substitution for the dominant seventh? Is it a Berkeley thing?
I guess it's a convenient way of thinking what to play on the weak beat of a dominant chord for bass line. It starts from the 5th, containing the 7th and 9th (all quite safe bets on a dominant, while maintaining that alternating bass of 1 and 5). Theoretically not solid, but convenient. I'm not a bass player so could be wrong.
Some of the lessons translate over to guitar, yes! You can also learn more about rhythm guitar comping with this lesson: ruclips.net/video/h7i6S4_vi3g/видео.html
You learn through muscle memory surprisingly quick, unlike fretless instruments of a smaller scale length the bass is quite forgiving when it comes to finding the notes. Not that it's easy at all, I've been playing for a few months now and playing high up and fast is *extremely* difficult
This guy killed with Pasquale Grasso trio in Portsmouth. Amazing player
I'm a jazz singer but I still feel like I learn so much from watching videos for instrumentalists. Keep up the awesome content!

This is the best explanation of altered harmony out there! Really good at simplifying the concept!
Thank you for the excellent, clear presentation of the concepts!
Super simple and concise, well done.

so what we're talking about here is the altered dominant scale, right?
So it all shakes out as C Mixolydian with Db, Gb, and Ab added alt notes?
b2 diminished
5 minor
tritone sub
b2 minor
Augmented alteration
Fr tho use a tuner if you don’t have perfect pitch damn

Its a staple concept from the Barry Harris cult.
Can I apply this to guitar as well?

Damn... how does this man know where to push the strings without looking ON A FRETLESS FRETBOARD????

Dflat diminished is: Db - E - G - Bflat - now why is Ari playing: Db - F - Ab - B ....? tha'ts actually D diminished and not Dflat !
