Autumn Leaves Voicings For Stefan

Here you go Stefan. Autumn Leaves voicings. You have to do some of the work. I think I got the form and all that right. You need to label the chords and then label the alterations. Finally I think you need to memorize this. Just play it from memory. Also know with each chord you hit, what the root is. Keep this going in your mind. You need to become aware of what's happening. You get it?

The Modes in Detail - Phrygian

The phrygian scale is pretty cool because it has a minor 2nd between the root and the second scale degree. That gives it a very exotic sound!

Chinese translation for Chinese student.

如果拿Phrygian 音階和大調(major)音階來比較,Phrygian音階多了降2降3降6降7音。

在第一個音和第二個音中間是個半音,也因為這樣聽起來非常特別。

這個C為開頭音的Phrygian順階和弦,第一個和弦為Cminor 第二個和弦為Dbmajor

你可以聽到這樣的聲響在很多中東音樂、猶太音樂中等。

演奏大調音階跟Phrygian音階,比較看看。

通常在小調中會用到Phrygian,但是跟Dorian, Aeolian比,Phrygian最少用到。
