  • The Coolest Scale You Don't Know - The Arabian/Flamenco Scale - Ukulele Tutorial
    New Ukulele tutorials every Wednesday (technique and theory) and Saturday (songs)
    For today's lesson we are going to break down the coolest scale that you have never played... the Phrygian Dominant! I know, the name is terrifying, you can also think about it as the Arabian scale, the Flamenco Scale, the Gypsy Jazz scale and for all my theory nerds, the 5th mode of the harmonic minor scale. The scale has a very unique sound and the second you hear it you will have feelings of the Arabia, the desert, Aladdian times, but you will also hear it in Flamenco and Rumba music, both have a massive influence from northern Africa as well as Turkish and Balkan ideas, even influence in areas like Yugoslavia and the Slavic nations. In this lesson I will show you how to play it, show the intervals that are used so you can play it in any key, the chords associated with it, the most common chord progression used, how to improvise with it and even how to practice with it, so buckle up, it is time to travel across the world!

    It's called Hijaz maqam and it's used in religious music.
    Many variations exist,
    Try rasing the 7th then it becomes 2 hijaz tetra chords
    Or try playing a harmonic minor with raised 4th,or raised 4th with lowered 2nd
    Interesting seeing this scale on the ukulele
    Cool video bro 🎉

    • @TenThumbsProductions
      @TenThumbsProductions  7 дней назад

      Thanks for the cool facts! What language is “hijaz maqam” ? What is the context for the other two scales? Where can I learn more? Thank you!! 🙏🏼

    • @macitotom
      @macitotom 3 дня назад +1

      @@TenThumbsProductions
      Hijaz is the name of the family
      Maqam is synonym for modes i guess
      Which is wider than scales and interchangeable
      In western music there's harmonic minor or melodic SCALE
      While in eastern music (arabic in my case) we have nahawand MAQAM which encapsulates 10s of minors

    Absolutely loved this! Jim Pankey, 🪕banjo god, did a banjo Hava Na Gila and that got me picking a slightly more ‘Arabian’ version of this scale on the Banjolele. Thanks for including some chords to add a bit more voice to it. Looks like we all want some more flamenco content 😎👏👏👏👍

  • @peterukezeller4485
    @peterukezeller4485 Месяц назад

    Tyler, thanks for the interesting video! 👏 This scale is also used in Greek music such as Rembetiko, where it is called Hitzás or Arabic "minor". A variety of different scales (Drómos) are used there, mostly from the Arabic region. So the musical roots are similar to those of flamenco. I have a small Greek baglamas. I can't play it properly but have tried to improvise on it in Greek scales

    Hello Tyler ! I try to understand why A is the 4th of the E Phrygian Dominant scale (and not A#) ? Does this means than in terms of intervals, the Phrygian Dominan scale is H / WH / H / W / H / W / W ? Thanks to light me on this... And Yes, I like "exoctic" style of music, makes my head travelling (I start working on Hawaïan music style) ...

    Is the Doric mode used a lot on the uke?

    • @TenThumbsProductions
      @TenThumbsProductions  8 месяцев назад +1

      To clarify I believe you are talking about the Dorian mode? Modal composition isn’t very common on ukulele, but Dorian along with Mixolydian, are probably the two most common
