The Pentatonic-Lydian Shift Workout

- Hey everybody! Here's the next episode of Scales & Tales with The Pentatonic-Lydian Shift Workout. I've shared a lot of workouts, warmups, and exercises of the LNL channel over the years, and this one is another idea I've had around for a while and wanted to share. This idea is similar to the tonality shift found in the recent "Connecting Arpeggios" episode of Breaking Chords, but as you'll discover it's a great legato-based workout and exercise - so let's dive in!
This workout revolves around shifting between a C# minor pentatonic scale and a C major 7#11 arpeggio. As you'll see, the two-note per string fingering found in both the scale and arpeggio is similar. This allows you to perform these two tonalities using a comfortable two-note per string legato movement across the strings. It also has a nice ear-catching sound, as it shifts between the minor to major tonalities.
Needless to say, if you're a viewer that asked for more exercises/workouts, a player searching for a great technique-boosting challenge, someone wanting to improve their legato and stretching technique/ability, or maybe you're just curious what all the fuss is about - this lesson is totally for you! Give this episode a view, leave some comments/feedback, and please subscribe to Late Night Lessons - THANK YOU!
I am adding this to daily workout! Great lesson David! Have an awesome weekend !!🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸
Your lessons are always top notch. I never got into modes until I saw your videos
Another Great workout lesson by The Man!!!!
Thanks David!
I recognize those arpeggios from one of your very old arpeggio exercises where you just played it but never explained what was going on.
I'm glad you're giving a little insight.
Good stuff.
Another great video. That's me busy this weekend
Yep..going strong..thanks teach.
All I keep hearing is Satch’s “Flying in a Blue Dream” when you play these arpeggios!
Dave, your right hand is hypnotic. Fantastic stuff.
I wanted this ...I needed this.
Another sick lesson Dave!
Way to Go !! Great content. Kepp up the good work
Beautiful lesson & progression, David!!! Thanks!!!
That Cmaj7#11 arpagio sounds so cool.
Very helpful! Thank you!
Really sounds great!
Dave , cool tutorial and it is a great work out going to warm up with this exercise Sunday morning.
It sounds best to my ears at the medium tempo it's very musical. Great work Sir and thank you for sharing
🤘🤘
I better get my sweats on. Time to get that musical pump 🎸 🎶💪🏼
I realise you don't try to. But, you always impress me!
After watching that I feel inspired enough to give this one a go... thank you!
Excellent exercise Brewster love this ❤️😏💪👍
That sounds great, mate! Thank you! 🤘🏼
Instant prog! Love it, thanks.
Great lesson Dave, i must work on that...thx
The arpeggio and the t-shirt are connected. I see you David!
If you ever get the opportunity to score an 80's horror movie you'll have your opening scene music at the ready. LOL!
I need Pentatonic-Lydian scale pictures, lol. Open to 12th fret. I like the sound better than the regular Lydian scale. Kind of dreamy.
Very nice Dave, thx!
I really like that PRS
Really nice ideas thanks a lot
ok. Looks like I know what I'll be working on this week. 👍
I wish you played the riffs first so I could jump right into it!
Love that guitar too. Thanks for the sounds!
Cool…kind of an ominous sound to the chord shift. So the CM7#11…a few other alternatives for the bass right? F#, G#, A, D as well as C…getting into McCoy Tyner territory. I get so jealous of guitarists with this kind of thing. On the keyboard I have to work out like 6 different fingerings!
Great content !!! I am into modern fusion content. Could you do some content on nonfunctional harmony?
NICE. guitar!!!
👍
Did your behringer amplifier give up the ghost?
Any tunes or solos you recommend where this tonality is kind of the theme? Edit: I just realized that the C lydian arpeggio is basically the same as a Cmaj7 arpeggio. Is that accurate?
✌😸👍
Why did you go to C from C#?
Because it's the 7th Scale Degree and that's what makes it fall into the Lydian mode.
Because the notes of the C# minor pentatonic scale overlap nicely with the CM7#11 apeggio. But the shift between C & C# creates a really cool shift in tonality.
@@SimpleManGuitars1973nice try but the lydian mode is the 4th mode of the major scale not the 7th (locrian) .. So i guess the question remains unanswered.
@benben3210 That's right! I should've realized what I was saying since mixolydian is the 5th mode. I hardly ever think in modes really and just think of chord tones instead.
Note for myself 6:30
Sanks fren
This is the Hirajoshi Scale
Haven't heard that name since Dave Celentano's 'Monster Scales and Modes' book from back in the early 90s. 🤯
I see the comment I was looking for, I push the like button
@@bigmanolo1 thank you
Hey! Yes, the maj7#11 arpeggio can also be viewed as a mode of the Hirajoshi scale.
Hirajoshi is a pentatonic scale, and actually any five-note scale is technically pentatonic.
Also, I did create an entire lesson covering "Japanese scales" - including the Hirajoshi (and a few others), and also some tips on mimicking the exotic/inspiring sound of the koto on the guitar.
Here's a link and check it out - THANKS and ROCK ON!

At first I thought this comment had something to do with that karate kid movie from the '80s with Ralph Macchio. But that's the Mr Miyagi scale and that doesn't actually exist on a real guitar. You can only learn it if you paint the fence and remember to breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth.
I was mistaken and I'll see myself out.
Love it!!! But having trouble figuring out what your picking hand is doing???? Are you shifting patterns throughout??? Grrr arrrrgh brain melt!!! 😅🤕🥴😉
I've slowed down the video on other lessons and it helps put a lot.
Thanks for your feedback! Yeh I tried that but it was hard to tell in places.. but between that and listening for the pick attack i think I've got it! Economy picking using hammer ons and pull offs seems to make sense, it's not a strong point for me but I'm trying to understand a bit more than I usually do lol thanks heaps for your feedback!!! Much appreciated!!! Have a great week @@jimkon1479
