    My favorite thing about music is how the same ideas can be used in drastically different ways. All of these modes of the melodic minor scale are used in Jazz, in classical music, and also in Indian and Arabic music. The applications are widely different, but its the same intervalic relationships. Creativity is amazing.

    When you explained it, it all made sense to me. Probably because I'm metal, hard rock in my heart, and you used it in a setting that I'm used to.
    I also watched the channel of Jens Larsen, a distinguished jazz guitarist, and he explained it from a jazz point of view. Nice to get it from slightly different directions, and how one thinks creatively in relation to the style of music you like best.

    I'v always been too nervous to compose using any of the melodic minor modes just because of my jazz background. I know that sounds odd but hear me out: my band is a gothic/symphonic metal band; I never thought the sounds would fit the style.
    But you've inspired me to do some noodling Scott

    • @vincentvizcaya

      According to this site -www.huygens-fokker.org/docs/modename.html - that scale doesn't exist except as a mode of two others (which have both Indian and Greek identities):
      1 2 b3 #4 5 #6 7 (2 1 3 1 3 1 1) = Mela Nitimati, Raga Nisada, Kaikavasi (Your scale starting on F: F G Ab B C D# E F)
      1 #2 3 4 5 b6 7 (3 1 1 2 1 3 1) = Mela Gangeyabhusani, Raga Gangatarangini, Sengah (Greek) (Your scale starting on C: C D# E F G Ab B C).

    • @ShredmasterScott
      @ShredmasterScott  5 лет назад

      Nice brother. Yeah, I don't think you're gonna find these sounds in Mozart's music except for the first mode. I'm not using melodic minor like they did in the classical period though, ascending with a raised 6 and 7, descending with a flattened 6 and 7. I'm using "jazz" minor, keeping the 6 and 7 raised no matter what.
