This is a podcast I did with John and Ed. We each recorded our version of Dolphin Dance and then had a hang and talked about it.

This is a cut from my new quartet's last performance. In a band dedicated to exploring Irish music through jazz, this is kind of a stretch, but it's fun, and I was happy enough with how it went down to post it. Hope you enjoy.

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!

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）
