It is my sincere conviction with regards to the derivation of the aforementioned chordal structures and subsets thereof, that a thorough analysis of their constituent elements, while cross-referencing their inverted enharmonic counterparts as projected on an n-dimensional non-euclidian hyperplane, where n is the product of the total number of frets shifted by modulo z and quantized against the parental diminished shapes are you taking notes, all this will be in the test
Yes, I agree with you100% Spb! However; I didn’t take Valir Amiril serious. I thought the statement was humorous, and I would think that Mr. Martino (The Great Guitarist) would laugh at Valir Amiril’s humorous reply.
Lots of comments saying this is bad teaching and unnecessarily complicated. I don't see anything having been made more complex in the slightest..Pat's instruction in this video is nothing more than an expounding on his incredibly simple to understand approach to playing over changes and the dodecaphonic substitutions he employs therein. I suspect the reason so many find what he is saying complicated is a lack of the foundational theoretical/improvisational knowledge required to comprehend the concepts Pat is teaching. A video teaching Russian adverbs is useless for somebody who doesn't have a basis in Russian or know what adverbs are. Of course it would be confusing. However what Pat is explaining here is simply his own manner of conceiving and organizing particular sounds systematically in order to recall them on command with a simultaneous emphasis on an understanding of the harmonic structures from which they are derived.
Agreed. And actually someone said it earlier as well as Pat himself describing it this way, it’s a perception issue solved. I get it! I’ve always sort of understood what he’s talking about here but this video made it click. It’s how you view. Sure, theory too. But I’m with you, not complicated. Really it’s just beautifully a way to see how his brain thought.
Partly his bad teaching is the fact that his examples are too quick to follow by intermediate players. What's the point, then. Because advanced players can already shred, this renders his lessons worthless from a practical standpoint for intermediate players.
Martino was a genius. I'm sure he's having a blast in heaven. Probably teaching mere mortals with a knack for music how to become more fluid in their craft. I hope I can sign up for his class...😊
Pat: By aggregating the vertical architectures you can unleash user-centric transitionary relationships between notes and extend synergistic playing, like so: “sprays 100 notes” at you. Ok? Me: OK
A summery: Key of C: Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 Over the G7 chord you can think any combination of the following: Fm7 Bb7 EbMaj7 Abm7 Db7 Gbmaj7 Bm7 E7 Amaj7 4 key centers each a tri-tone away from each other.
This instructional video is definitely not geared towards beginners but if you already have an idea of what's going on musically, from a foundation in music theory, you'll realize there is a wealth of great information being shared here. Mr. Martino is a musical genius with a deep understanding of music. If you really pay attention to what he's explaining there is a lot of deep valuable musical knowledge within his explanations. He comes at it from shall I say "a unique angle" but that's actually just his genius showing. Like I said though this isn't for beginner's.
I love how differently everyone sees the guitar. I see more like holdsworth, where I picture the entire scale form on the neck. Very interesting. From what I understand, here, from briefly viewing and not completely studying Martino’s approach, is that he is playing “Dorian” lines over a 7th chord, which would be in a mixolydian fashion, which is why he is saying he is playing a fifth over the chord. For example if he played an A7 chord, he would solo in Dorian mode, which would be em7 lines, because the A7 chord is mixolydian in d major.
This in a way reminds me of the Barry Harris approach. Except Barry's method was reductionist and about simplifying jazz, whereas Martino's method actually makes the thinking of music/jazz more complex than it already is. Martino's approach seems like the way a mathematician would end up learning the guitar.
I think they are the same, the dorian he used is just m6dim, for example, 2-5 in C Barry says it’s G7, and Pat says it’s Dm7, and he just uses the similar things in different naming, so the substitutions work. Pat is just explaining substitutions, I don’t think in his teaching he’s really teach you lines just the way he thinks about harmony.
example 1: * ears start to bleed from stroking out * "one more time" * full blown generalised tonic clonic seizure from hyper driving brain circuits to comprehend 4D guitaring *
. . . Or it could have been the drugs? When you listen to those recordings up to Exit, imo it’s pretty clear he was using some kind of performance enhancers. After the stroke, he came back stronger than ever.
Geez, man, lookie here: The chord "A7+" is merely the seventh position of Bb Melodic Minor, and Eb9 is in its four position. That is why, when you are looking at notes to find related chords, you will gravitate toward the notes of its diatonic scale. Thus the tendency toward Bbm7, by which Pat really intends to say is a "Bb minor major chord," which is the root chord of Bb Melodic Minor. Once you know the scale, add a chromatic note or two within the form for hip measure, and you got yourself a Martino. I guess one more thing. If you are looking for a science of the application of a well-placed chromatic note, perhaps it is a good time for the reminder that augmented chords are also found in the seventh position of Harmonic Minors (and every M3 from its root note in a loop), and they are in the first position of Harmonic Majors (again found every M3 from its root note in a loop). In the unlikely event that you will find yourself in jazz hell presented with a chord progression containing BbminMaj to A7+ to Eb9 over which you are forced to apply theoretically sensible notes lest you be fixed on Satan's Dante anal spittle, grab the notes from Bb Harmonic Minor and those from A Harmonic Major that are not in Bb Melodic Minor (the diatonic parent of those three chords), and you have an academic excuse to have chosen those accidentals in your fancy shmancy arpeggio. Amen
i wondered about that, because Bb melodic minor fits perfectly (or a mmaj7 as a substiution) but the b7 (Ab) of Bbm7 woul really be not a good note choice for A7#5
These lines are not diatonic. There will be "Bb minor" lines with Ab that look "Dorian" or with A-nat stressed that look "Melodic Minor" or lines that move chromatically between Bb and Ab that look like "Bebop Scales." Plus, he plays Em, Gm and Dbm against the A7. It would be quite difficult to force feed that into scale names. You can even find him using major thirds against minor chords. The thing that you wrote that caught my interest was "theoretically sensible notes." I suggest it's just called "theory," but it is really just descriptive statistics. When I was in fifth grade, a classmate told that jazz is when you use the black keys. lol
Clearly, not a teacher, as he definitely can play. Otherwise, a fantastic insight into one man's interpretation process. Just take a second to think of this: it's not that maestro is deliberately playing these shapes fast to disturb people on youtube who are not fluent enough to follow in his footsteps. No, this is exactly the speed and precicion the man actually was thinking in. Bravo.
“Now I’ll play Bb, Db, F and Ab minor bebop scales over chords Gb, A, C, and Eb #5“. (Plays) squibble dibble booble dabble ooba dooba bidda diiba scooba dooba, ooga dibba doobop. “Got that?” I wish he’d slow down that eighth note salad, I suspect it’s much simpler than he’s making it sound.
Yeah, bruh... I don't know the language enough to understand what he's doing, but I'm trying to understand what he's doing TO learn the language, like when your first job wants you to have 3 years of experience alreadt
How i see it is I put everything in relation with the chord that's played underneath. If you say you play Em over A7 you're playing E B G, that means you're highlighting the 5,9 and 7 of A7. That's a simple A9 dominant. The problem is the way he uses the scale at that speed with the chord tones on strong time. That i think requires years of slow practice over changes.,
Same answer is valid if he uses the whole Em scale, it will just add colours to that A7 triad. It's a common way of thinking in jazz it seems, I don't quite like it though
@@FabrizioPerettiI believe he said ‘eminor 7’ over that A7, so don’t forget the D note.. (think G6 chord or Gmajor penta shape, emphasising E on the pass by)
Man, listen to those stabbing, somewhat alienesque lines! I put Pat, John McLaughlin, and Holdsworth together because they all sound like they are coming from space. Something otherwordly about all those players musical vibe. I know Holdsworth also derived his own unique systematic approach. I don't know about McLaughlin. Maybe it was the time. the late 60's early 70's. the space race. getting off this planet. Getting philosphical. It shines through the music. Pat could be such a warm player but he could also sound stone cold.
I think Pat learned a lot of what he plays from playing with the guys and groups he has played with in his life.and then he has developed a system in which he can explain what’s going on!
19:24 - Correct me if I'm wrong If you have 10 ice cubes and I have 11 apples how many pancakes you can put on the roof? The answer is violet, because aliens do not wear hats. Did I understood it correctly?
Edim7 - E, Bb, C#, G, if you lower the Bb to an A you get E, A, C#, G. This is an Adom7 chord with the E in the bass. Pat plays Emin7 over it. Is this because A7 is the "5 chord" in the key of D major and that Emin7 would be the "2 chord" (E dorian)?
Yes. The ii V effect. You know what else is cool? Each note in the diminished chord can be played as its minor seventh. E minor can be used against the dimished chord. Bb minor can be used against it. C# minor as well, and G minor as well. Because if you lower any tone in the chord, it becomes the root of the dom7. E to Eb becomes Eb dom7. The perfect fifth of Eb dom 7 is Bb minor. C# lowered to C becomes C7. The minor to that is G minor. Pat plays literally all 4 minors over a fully dimished “cube” chord
ecaepevolhturt no problem! Ive been studying pat for a while now and know a lot about his approach to improvisation. If you want anymore explanations, please ask me. Its fun for me to discuss and it helps me retain the information I leanred.
I start the video and Mr. Martino says he prefers to play a Minor 7rh a Fifth above a Dominant 7th and turns my world around all in the first 10 seconds of the video.
I like it when he plays his lines slow enough for his students to learn from, so patiently, so slowly, then speed up slowly, so patiently like a good teacher does. Right?
This is Pat Martino .......he doesn't teach beginners......he's assuming (as he rightly should) that if your watching his video ...your good enough to absorb what he's doing & teaching
If you want to understand this and why he plays so many notes..you need to hear the lines as a group, a chord ontop of the main harmony chord. If you play the line slow, the substitutions never sound good. The notes in any substitution need to be played fast to bring out the harmony
He never describes what notes are actually in these "minor substitutions" or what mode or scale they might be based around except to say that they're... Minor Seventh. There must be specific adjustments he makes starting from the different intervals, but I've been watching him a long time and verbally he ain't gonna go there folks so use your ear or a slow down tool! btw I noticed that the four intervals where he creates minor substitutions over a dominant chord spell out a Dominant 7 arpeggio from the tritone of the chord being played over.
@@ronaskew Listen to Ron he’s basically got it. He substituted everything for Dorian, m7 chord, second degree of the major scale. When he says minor he really means Dorian
well...i think this is advanced level of playing...not for beginners...yes its bebop lines with lot chromatics...the minor substitutions he talks about is like this example : Gm7 play Bb major scale...easy..make the relation of notes of the minor 7 chord and see how it relates to the Bb and try to make chromatics from 3rd 5th and 7th and you will understand...if you can understand this..after you can understand what Pat Metheny does aswell😉
We are very lucky he does the examples very very very slooooooow 🙂 however I do understand, when you have the knowledge like he does, it is extremely difficult to deal with the rest of us the mediocre guitarists, Imagine Friedrich Nietzsche writing lullaby for kids
Pat Martino can be overwhelming if you’re not used to/new to jazz. Check out Jim Hall if you’re interested in getting into it, specifically the Undercurrent album with Bill Evans. Jim Hall was very melodic and expressive. If you like that also try Pat’s album We’ll Be Together Again. It’s one of his more restrained releases and has a really beautiful atmosphere to it.
Will Kriski : It’s not as automatic as you say it is even if you learn your patterns... If that were the case every guitarist would sound like pat and that’s certainly not the case even after decades of playing the instrument.
Me encanta pat Martino pero pedagógicamente hablando esto no sirve para nada….la auténtica improvisación transcurre en una secuencia armónica y ahí los problemas son otros que aquí ni se nombran…
Love his music but the language used in this video is unnecessarily flourished, almost pedantic. His lines are too fast for anyone to follow. Cool sounding jargon and a bunch of runs, but didn’t retain anything of substance, a bit of a shame.
I know what you are saying. He is some kind of pedant and if one is talented as he is... it's easy to put that in stilted speech that is meaningful to you but useless to others. You are right on this one.
It is my sincere conviction with regards to the derivation of the aforementioned chordal structures and subsets thereof, that a thorough analysis of their constituent elements, while cross-referencing their inverted enharmonic counterparts as projected on an n-dimensional non-euclidian hyperplane, where n is the product of the total number of frets shifted by modulo z and quantized against the parental diminished shapes are you taking notes, all this will be in the test

Actually, Martino’s system is simplifying the fretboard. From a single augmented or diminished chord, are many coming from the same position.

Same.
Side note, you can tell around 29:00 mark where he’s performing with the band just how big those strings are. 😮

It was a gift from a Puerto Rican luthier based in NYC.

@@Newgrassrock Yes! I had forgotten his name.
Edim7 - E, Bb, C#, G, if you lower the Bb to an A you get E, A, C#, G.

Is this because A7 is the "5 chord" in the key of D major and that Emin7 would be the "2 chord" (E dorian)?

He is a horrifically bad teacher 🤯
Most geniuses are.
@@andybaldman joe pass was a really great teacher
It's always the same: When the student is ready, then he can understand. Otherwise......
His speaking and playing actually match. Babbling. Now, in his old age, his playing has become more lyrical, though.
You must be a unhappy person.
@@chrisbatson3402 Perhaps. But he's still right.
What possessed him to speak like a bloody English Professor? Its JAZZ man, simplify and send a clear message.
that‘s just mr martino being mr martino. i know what you mean 😁
He is a master at guitar and a genius. He is very articulate and very professional.
What an ugly guitar!
Kind of defeats the purpose of teaching guitar when its covered in Kanji
😂
Love his music but the language used in this video is unnecessarily flourished, almost pedantic. His lines are too fast for anyone to follow.
Cool sounding jargon and a bunch of runs, but didn’t retain anything of substance, a bit of a shame.
anyone? you mean for you.
I know what you are saying. He is some kind of pedant and if one is talented as he is... it's easy to put that in stilted speech that is meaningful to you but useless to others. You are right on this one.
useless without pdf file, i want my money back! REFUND!
Selfish teacher,,
