If you’re just diving into the world of improvising with modes, it’s likely that you have a lot of questions. What is a mode, and how is it different from a key? How do you know what mode to use for soloing? What is the theory behind modes? We have a guest expert on modal improvisation to answer all of these burning questions – and more…
Brian from Zombie Guitar here! Firstly, I wanted to say a thank you to Adam, Musical U’s Communications Manager, who has given me the opportunity to do a guest post for Musical U.
The topic of this lesson is beginning modal improvisation. This lesson is going to be divided into three parts:
Part one: What the goal of using a mode, as opposed to just playing within a key?
Part two: Fretboard applications of modes. (We’re going to take a look at the minor pentatonic scale, and how to add notes to it in order to essentially create either the Aeolian mode or the Dorian mode.)
Part three: The theory behind modes and when to use them
So with that said, let’s get started: http://musl.ink/modalimprov
