Pat Martino’s “Symmetrical Parental Forms”: 1) Play 554 on GBE. That is an Augmented triad named for any one of those C-E-G# notes. LOWER any one of those notes and you’ll “parent” 3 different MAJOR triads; RAISE any one of those notes and you’ll “parent” 3 different MINOR triads. - So one easy-to-grab AUGMENTED triad “parents” 6 other triads. 2) Now play 4545 on DGBE. That’s a Diminished 7th chord named for F#-C-D#-A root notes (or Gb and Eb enharmonic equivalents). LOWER any one of those notes and you’ll “parent” 4 different Dominant 7 chords; RAISE any one of those notes and you’ll “parent” 4 different Half-Diminished 7th chords (aka Minor 7b5 chords). - So that one easy-to-grab Diminished 7th chord “parents” 8 other 7th chords. 3) That is what Pat Martino noticed about the guitar. Just like a C Major scale, an A Natural Minor scale, and an Eb Minor Pentatonic scale are “natural” on the piano, so too are the Augmented triad and the Diminished 7th chord “natural” on the guitar. - The way the guitar is tuned makes those two chord structures “SYMMETRICAL PARENTAL FORMS”. This is something that every guitarist needs to understand just like CAGED is. It’s just the way that the guitar “works”. - RIP Pat Martino. Thanks for this lesson!-
Pat Martino, inspirational man, brilliant man, always, always wise, creative, UNIQUE, a joy to listen to both musically and in every detail and in speech.... I MISS HIM... God bless him, and for ever grateful for the time he gave me, ever so generously and graciously ... I will never forget him. Always an inspiration, I feel super blessed for his friendship and time he gave me THANK YOU Pat. thank you Aya, very much missed , but NOT forgotten.
His paying is astonishing so eloquent, beauty in the moment. He was so succinct in his vocabulary he would make you look at life differently he arrived after the surgery with a sense of a renewal to life.Be here now.The zen of living,l loving ❤.His legacy will live on for al time no doubt.
He's absolutely right. Craft is following a set of pre-determined and thought-out procedures to achieve a product. Street craftsmen who make those palm frond roses, or kids who make a macaroni image based on what their teacher says, or a skilled seamstress. All of those are craftspeople. An artist creates, and that's what improvisation is; spontaneous creation. All the practice and preparation the jazz musician goes through is so that eventually, he will be able to express more freely and accurately what is in their mind during improvisations. To better communicate their thoughts through music.
