有幾個方式去學調式音階，
第一種你可以想成都在C大調音階的關係（全部沒有升降記號）：
C音到C音Ionian,
D音到D音Dorian,
E音到E音Phrygian,
F音到F音Lydian,
G音到G音Mixolydian,
A音到A音Aeolian,
B音到B音Locian,

第二種方式，也是Tony喜歡用的一種方式：

把七個調式音階建立在同一個根音上，
比如Dorian就是把Ionian的3,7,音降低半音。
如果只是用第一種方式，沒有比較的對象，每一種調式聽起來都會只是在C大調中的聲音色彩。

I was working on the tune Conception by George Shearing and I had some thoughts I figured I'd pass along. I have an etude and chord study coming also.

I"m thinking about all this talk about mallets and sound. So I was wondering how we would classify different peoples sound? I don't mean in a negative way.

I'm listening to Steve Nelson right now, Mike Dirubo's new cd. Ed mentioned glassy, that's definitely glassy.

I dug Ed's duet with Liebman. More round sound right? His new mallets. Who else has a round sound? Samuels right?

Rafael Meinhart is a student of David Friedman's. He wanted to work on technical things and asked what he should practice. David said write your own studies. So Rafael did. Check this one out. It's great!

I just did a simple lesson on this and here's this cat taking it to the extreme.

Cmajor - Abmajor - F7
因為有些和聲進行可以學到很多，這就是其中一個

Cmajor - Abmajor - F7 =
C (Ionian)- C Aeolian - C Dorian

用很多不同方式練習這組和聲進行：
*演奏單旋律，會幫助聽力，也幫助你演奏單旋律更順暢。
*想辦法找到一些Pattern
*comping
*單手練習（左手/右手）

你也可以找到你自己的一組合聲進行，
然後用以上這麼多方式去練。

Comping的時候要注意，用Side way方式。音階式的方式練習演奏和弦，而不是用轉位的方式，
這樣才能真正的清楚了解每一個細節。

Here's a whole section on scales. Very complete! Between Behn and myself it has lots of ideas and explanations to you help with chords and scales and improvising!
