that we've noticed is that, although

people seem to understand what we're talking

about in videos with regard to modes, there's some people that aren't

entirely sure about what that actually means in terms of how they sound.

So one important thing I think is that people often

think well okay C-I-O-N is, is almost [INAUDIBLE] C major.

There's all the white notes on the piano from C to C.

c, d, e, f, g, a, b, and back to c again.

But d Dorian.

Is using exactly the same pair of notes, but it's just starting the scale on D.

So instead of C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C, we've got D, E, F, G, A, B, C, D.

Now, a fairly legitimate question that people often say

is, well, what difference does this, does this make actually?

It's just the same pair of notes, why is it going to sound any different?

I think the important thing to note is it's

the internal relationships, between the notes we hear D.

As our, as our kind of important note in this key and as such

although we are using the same note system the relationships between them changes.

Let's do a major chord and myself instead of playing the scale, I'll just

play a little once the music starts

flowing, just as an illustration for what's form.

>> And what I am going to do is not just

play the cord exactly, I'm going to do a little bit to.

As well just to give us a sense of music in this mode.

So this first thing, the idea we're trying

to create here is the major mode music sounds.

[MUSIC]

[MUSIC]

Okay, so that was just all the notes of

the C major scale with a C major triad, okay?

Taking the signature scale that was a triad built on the

first note, C and the scale built on the first note, C.

We're just going to move up a tone.

We're going to do everything on B, which is the

second note using the same notes available to us.

[MUSIC]

Okay, so that was a completely different set.

We're still using all the same notes.

But, because we have the different triad, the

triad broke on the second note of the scale.

But on D, we've got a minor triad, and

actually the Dorian, have a minor center as well.

So let's move up to the third one, which is a,.

[MUSIC]

[MUSIC]

Again a minor sound on the future on the third still using

all the same notes but because of the internal relationship of the notes.

We get a completely different sound.

We'll just get through them a wee bit quicker, and then what

we're going to do is move on to the fourth, which is [INAUDIBLE]

[MUSIC]

F.

[MUSIC]

Okay, so again, that's a major sound, it's something different.

Into another one because of the different internal relationships of notes.

So, so far we've had, Ionian, which was major sound

and still using the same notes of C major scale.

Dorian, which was minor sound.

Phrygian, which was minor sound.

And, and then we just had Lydian, which was major sound.

And, again, these are always in the same notes

drawn from the sequence of scales so hopefully you

can see now, already that these are starting to

sound, very different just by using the same [UNKNOWN] notes.

[SOUND] So we're going to go to the [UNKNOWN] now [INAUDIBLE].

Scale of G, in this case.

[MUSIC]

We're now going to move up.

We're going to go on to the sixth.

[MUSIC]

Mold [UNKNOWN] on the trend [UNKNOWN] on the scale [UNKNOWN].

[MUSIC]

Okay, so all the notes are natural minor we've called other ones in this course.

But again this really is just a variable just to let you hear

the differences starting the new one hear to go, and try to introduce yourself.

Now we're going to move on to the seventh, the triad built on the

seventh degree, and we're going to play with the mode built on the seventh degree.

This is a diminished triad, and this is our Locrian mode.

And it does have a different sound.

[MUSIC]

[MUSIC]

It's quite hard to hear that one, as

coming home, because of this diminished fifth relationship.

It doesn't sit as easily as the other ones do.

>> But as a result of that, it does

give us quite a distinct character for this one.

This is just a little video really just to, to-

>> Just play some jazz.

[LAUGH] >> Play some music.

But also to let you get cards and skills

working together and hopefully tie down this, this idea

of notes and how you can get very, very

different sounds using the same pool of available notes.
