Lesson

Friedman 13

Please note that I've made a reference to "flat 4" in the pentatonic scale for this video. I'm not sure why, haha! But here is a basic summary of the scale tones for Fmin pentatonic over an F7 chord.

If you think of the main scale tones of F7 being mixolydian, you would have F-G-A-B-C-D-Eb. Fmin Pentatonic would be F,Ab,Bb,C and Eb. So basically leave out scale tone 2 from the mixolydian, flat the 3rd, leave 4 alone unlike what I said in the video, haha! Then just leave out scale tone 6 and you have Fmin pentatonic.

Hope that makes sense :)

Hey everyone,

In this first lesson on pedaling, I explain how I view the pedal, how it's different from the piano, and how to set it up properly. Next we will talk about legato-pedaling, staccato-pedaling, pedaling rhythm, and half-pedaling.

I got this idea from Ed Saindon, but I use the term a little differently now. "Dampening effects," to me, are different sounds you can produce while dampening. This includes deadstrokes, half-dampening, and dampening speed.
