I can think of parts of tunes that are lydian. The opening chord of Blue in Green. Sometimes guys play Gmin, but most of the time it's Bb maj and a sharp 4. In fact the melody is an E.
Can you think of more?
Sharp the 4!
Chinese Translation for Chinese students
如果拿Lydian 音階和大調（major）音階來比較，Lydian音階多了升4音。
西城故事最有名的片段，用到Lydian。在Disney音樂中也很常用到。
如果是四級大調和弦，通常會用到Lydian(因為Major #11)
例如Gmajor-Cmajor, C是G的四級，所以聲響上面還是都以G調為基礎，所以這邊的C就可以用到聲四音（#F）
I just heard an arrangement of Arabesque 1 by Debussy, for vibes, performed by Jessica Ryckewaert, on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0xosUMpJgY

Understanding Tritone Substitutions
by John Mark Piper
To understand the basics of tritone substitutions and how they typically function is an important aspect of music. Having good command of them can help a musician's reading, hearing, performing and memorizing music.
I usually rig something up for Halloween. This year I decided to put an inflatable halloween decoration under a pile of leaves. When the kids come to the door for trick-or-treating, I'll turn on the blower with a remote controlled outlet switch and have it pop up out of the leaves.
Attached is a video of my setup with an overdub of me playing theme music on vibes. I tried doing some dampening. I had trouble with my Piper (43R) mallets as they bounced when I tried dampening so I used Mike Balter 12Rs instead. Any suggestions on controlling the bouncing when dampening.
Here's a suggestion for subscribers using the site and practicing like there is no tomorrow(like you're all doing!).
Say you are working on something, a tune, a progression, a mode or anything like that. The thing to do is to use the search box located to the top left of the page.
Just type in what you are working on (or part of it if you don't get a result) and you'll see posts that relate to what you are working on.
So what if you don't find anything??
Help me name tunes or parts of tunes that are Dorian in sound.
Ha ha, I got the first one. 'So What'.
Oh, here's another. The first to chords of Recordame.
Add on to this list please!
