- Music Theory - How To Use Lydian Major and Sus4 Arpeggios
In this episode I discuss the structure and usage of both Lydian Major and Sus4 Arpeggios for improvising and composition. A Lydian Major chord consists of the 1 3 #4 5 notes of the Lydian Mode and a Sus4 Triad is the 1 4 5 of a Major Scale.
C Lydian Major = C E F# G or 1 3 #4 5 of a Lydian Scale
C Sus4 = C F G or 1 4 5 of a Major Scale

Keith Emerson (RIP) played lots of Lydian and Sus4 Arpeggios...Excellent tutorial,thanks so much.
I will do a Keith Emerson video in the future. Cheers!
The f lydian mode is the same as a raag in hindustani classical music. It's called yaman. I've been trying to improvise on that for a while now I my mind has opened up like never before. Thanks man.
kiran kumar Yeah. I correlate this lydian mode with the song main rahoon ya na rahoon by Arman malik, there are a lot of songs on yaman raag though.
my favorite lydian sequence is 1, 2, #4, 5 repeated over several octaves
it's not all that versatile but it's great to bust out in certain situations
So many good tools in here. Great video, Rick!
Randy Rhoads, guitarist for Ozzy Osborne, used this in the opening chord of "diary of a madman". This is where I heard it for the first time as a teenager.
I'm still in love for this video
I have found that any Sus chord works over any bass note. some might sound a little more off than others but the most part one can use any Sus chord over any bass note.
Thanks
I really like how this guy shows the scale tones against the chords. This really gives some context.
Those Sus4 arpeggios towards the end of the video are so cool sounding.
Sir I am a very low level musician, but I love your lessons, I really like how you dont water down the information, and you only talk in theory terms of music, no shortcuts, that is really helping me connect the knowledge If acquired through the years with my year, thank you so much
Oh and something that really helps too is that you are always playing the notes while you mention them, thanks again
as always, beautiful lines. just a suggestion, tritone sub the lydian for locrian in a ll V chord sequence, like CM7#11 to B7 #5#9 instead of the F#m7b5 to B7 to help with the m7b5. thanks again for all the amazing material.
Thank you Rick for the insightful theory on various music themes. Especially enjoyed the film score videos. Really cool stuff (film scores are really great to listen to) . Would love to see more on establishing various Lydian sounds and Chromaticism in jazz and applying it to the guitar
Will do!
wow..never heard beautiful lines like that sir..maestro
Your tutorials are absolutely helpful! I'm a bass player, and this licks and tips for the chords, are very useful whenever I'm about to improvise or create some bass lines. Thnks a lot for your videos and Keep up with such an amazing job .
Thanks, Rick. When I studied in school we learned primarily to use the melodic minor and Lydian b7 over altered dominant chords. This opens up a whole new tonality for me.
I love how you do lessons that most people wouldn't think about.
Love all your stuff Rick!!
Peter
All those sus4 chords... Wow! and I thought I was doing good getting 4 major triads in a diminished scale. Bravo, Maestro!!!!
Rick i found you after Holdsy passed & i gotta say you r an amazingly insightful person. thank you for sharing your musical knowledge. love the stories interviews and lessons. so glad i found out. late as always but I'm here.
Thank you Rick!
Meet George Jetson!
Strongly recommend a 2 strings fingering technic. It gives you more mobility in a horizontal way, a lot less thinking.
fingering = 2-1-2-3, 2-1-2-3,2-1-2-3,1-3. Same fingering to return.
Lydian Major sounds like The Simpsons
Ultramajic the theme song does use the Lydian mode! Good ear!
I would say it's mixolydian #11, but of course it has the lydian major arp in it.
i heard the simpsons for a second as well lol
Simpsons is def in Lydian..uses the 4#...same as the theme of Westside story and every Steve Vai solo!!!
The Simpson theme is written on a Lydian Dominant, a mode of the melodic minor. Correct me if i am wrong
Just lovely.
Love this ! Sus triads sounding gorgeous . Thanks for the video Rick
Glad I found this place. Thanks for the sharing.
Thank you, Rick. Your lessons are mind blowing music theory. You are a very good teacher. I would request you to please show the guitar lines you play real slow, so, that one could pick it up easily and then practice it to get it correct. Thanks anyway, just a suggestion. Thanks so much. Your lessons are much appreciated.
I'm learning a lot with these videos!
What a great lesson Rick!! Thank you so much! I can hear those Shawshank Redemption sounds on the F aeolian example!
What a great teacher!
I hit the suscribe button only to realise I am already subscribed..
Love your content sir...
Rediscovering music theory
Very cool scale, you get a very ''enchanted'' or lost in the woods kinda feel to it! I'll have to experiment with that mode!
This reminds me of the Chinese scale, which is 1 3 #4 5 7. You can use it as a sort of lydian pentatonic although the 7 makes it darker and less stable
Great Lesson!
Thanks a lot!!!
Thanks Rick......So much info here.....love it...........rc
The sus 4 arpeggios at the end remind me of the Barber Piano Sonata. I used to wonder what those sounds were....now I know! Cheers.
I m trying these ideas on tapping ideas, very interesting
this would help here to be aware of the modes of the melodic minor scale to make sense of this. hes essentially just using a D altered scale but emphasizing different notes using the diatonic arpeggios of the parent scale, which is the Eb melodic minor scale.
here are the modes: Eb melodic minor, f dorian flat 6th, Gb lydian #5, Ab LYDIAN DOMINANT, Bb mixolydian b6, C locrian nat2, and D ALT DOMINANT
i have capitalized the 2 scales that are involved in the playing. he is mostly playing over a D7alt chord by using a Ab lydian dominant. they are the same thing. it would be like playing a D dorian over a C major chord. same notes. which means hes just playing a Daltdom but emphasizing different notes. by playing the Ab lydian arppeggio he is emphasizing the #4/b5, the b7, the 1, and the b9 of the D7alt chord. which means these lines will go well on any chord that has either a b9 or a b5 or both...#9 and #5 you may have to be more careful depends on the other notes in the chord.
This is really cool. I'm gonna have a fun time looking through your channel!
On the Lydian Major, I'm actually rolling my 2nd finger on the Eb and the Ab instead of using my 3rd finger on Ab. Hope you don't mind!
This really makes me wish I wasn't such a disaster on guitar.
Then start practicing and stop wishing
I learned this arp or one just like ir from the very end of Zappa's 'black napkins'
Those Sus4 Apeggios have really really cool sound
crazy advanced music theory! SO good :-)
very mystical sounding
Great Rick!! But hey ... 9:31 is so Aram Chatschaturjan :-)
Rick, you are fucking awesome. Damn glad to meet you.
Thanks for all you do.
Peace out,
BeTh :)
great sounds!
Crickey musical genius nice one Rick
Nice.
Great
Van Halen on Girl gone bad 1984 album. Check out how Eddie uses this in the intro... He uses an open Lydian voicing 7 notes arpeggio in the build up...my ears tell me he does anyway
Hello Rick! Your channel, along with Jens Larsen's, is by far the best out there on youtube covering these thematics! I would just ask one question/comment, is there any other Lydian but major? If we take m3, then we get dim chord basically, so, I suppose we can just say its Lydian, major seems a bit overinfo?
Omar Bilalović you also have lydian dominant (from the melodic minor scale I think?)
Omar Bilalović there is also Lydian Augmented and Lydian #9
my head is exploding - infinite knowledge - unreal
My fave mode
They the lydian play you were doing to show sounded like final fantasy 7
That Aeolian F with Csus4, Absus4 & Fsus4 reminds me of the music from 'First Blood' which I guess was Jerry Goldsmith
helo. sir
can u make a chart lydian #9
tha prevous lession....plz uplode...undiscover scales. ..
hell yes!
Wait, when hent to piano and was playing the arpeggio over different chords, wasn't playing the a Lydian notes?
Rick - When you play these arpeggios, there are big jumps in the fingering. Are these scales a mixture of octave displacement? It seems the notes could be easier, but you mix up the octaves to get the more dynamic sound. These big jumps are very difficult, but I think it’s the octave displacement that particularly makes it sound nice.
Hi Rick, great video as always, but next time could you lower the sound of the strings playing in the background when you are playing the scale?
It makes it hard for me to hear what you are saying
Hello sir, please make a video on how to sequence scales and arpeggios.
rick I just want to ask if november rain of guns and roses was in lydian mode?
Awesome channel!
Rick Beato you use alternate picking but wondered if you practice economy picking or sweeping? Are there anything techniques you wish you had developed or are currently practicing?
Dang I love you!!!
This reminds me of how Marty Friedman uses the hirojoshi scale. 1-b2-4-5-b6
3:16 What scale are you playing?
this reminds me of Jimmy Herring a lot! :)
Dude you are hilarious 🌊
I'm George Jetson
Cornbob Rimlove LOL. I read your comment before Rick played the line. I can't concentrate now. I keep laughing every time I try to start again.
I think I might be able to connect this to a Japanese Hirajoshi scale. That might sound cool :)
Took me a while to find out what variety of Les Paul you're using. Looks to be a Les Paul Special DC (double cutaway) in "TV Yellow". Have you customized it in any way? I really like that clean tone. I'm more of a Fender guy, but I might break down and get one of these :)
+Sound Author It's one of the best playing guitars I've ever owned.
How many chords, different types of chords, are in each mode? Are there more than seven modes?
Jonah Moore yes there is the mode of harmonic minor, melodic minor and Even double major
Can you send me the tab or tell me the name of this arpeggio?
The Jetsons!!!
5.30 continue/prelude of ff7
3.38 remember to learn dat lick
The Jetsons!
Referring back to your "old" videos right now! Haha. 🤣 this info is timeless and universal. That Flydian sound cycling through the sus4 arpeggios is so haunting! ❤🤘🤘
☝️*Correction* ☝️F Aeolian sound NOT Flydian!
Are these videos meant for people who already have a large understanding of music theory? Because i never really feel like i learn much.. i can't tell if all of this is just going over my head, or if your style of teaching doesn't work well with me.
AugustBurnsSam I guess I would say yes they are made for people that already have knowledge of theory. There are thousands and thousands of videos on RUclips of people teaching things the basics. I'm trying to provide something different. Advanced concepts that are not found everywhere. The couple times I've made a simple video people complain. Should I do some more basic ones?
Rick Beato Well, I started to kind of learn about the Lydian scale used in this video, but when you began to use all of those complicated chords (complicated to me at least), i got lost. Especially at the piano part on the Lydian bit of the lesson.
It could be that you're a phenomenal teacher but I just don't learn well with your video structures. I tend to learn by doing, which can make learning Music Theory difficult for me.
I would say to keep creating whatever lessons you enjoy teaching, because looking at the comments, i can tell that there are a lot of people learning from this channel.
I've definitely learn't some things from this, really great lesson and having knowledge of music theory helps alot.
I for one like think the level on offer is something new and not readily available on youtube.
If players get stuck or things seems too complicated, I suggest just writing them down tanks, for the time being at least. Look for other videos on youtube that explain the basic concept and return here later. In no time you'll start understanding the more complex notions here. It's kinda like a big puzzle :-)
So you should give suggestion to artist like Pat Martino, Lee Ritenour
"Why don't you just make a easy listening song like Taylor Swift for many other people can appreciate your song and you can sales your album more"
and I guess when you attend to study in collage or anywhere you may be go to complaint your Dean because too much advance knowledge that he provide.
instead of "Wow , what a precious lesson but I need more knowledge level to understand this thing So I have to make a strong foundation more than this ,right now"
0:23 "Like a good neighb-"
Meet George Jetson Lydian triad. More Boomer Bends Rick!!!! Boomer Bend that sharp 4.
What are you using, RIck? :) What gauge is he using, guys?
That's a beautiful Gibson Rick. Which model is it?
Les Paul Junior
Is the simpsons intro in lydian? Just starting to learn
I hear The Jetsons theme song in those notes.
A lot of Vai's music uses this.
Maybe a lesson on sus chods/harmony if there is anything to say, huh?
Seriously i would love to have tabs for aroeggios
Get Rick's book, it's all there. I bought it recently. It's a mine of information like this and more. I'm not affiliated, just a Beato fan.
Realization! The Jetsons show theme song is Lydian major!! 🤣
Here come the Jetsons!!! Lol
DOH!
Damn, I just hear the Jetsons intro.
Dorian mode sound like sky

Like a good neighbor.....
I can hear diary of a madman in this mode
Gregory Szymkowiak Diary is in a Diminished key and has the b5 (#4) in it.
Well it took me 25 years but i think i understand now..lol
@@CasioGreg I'm still at it after 35yrs and taught theory for 20. Music is an endless well, but my old brain has limited cells,lol.
Please adopt me. I mean it. Seriously. For real. I beg you.
