that would defeat the purpose of having it called a "LESSON."

Not exactly. E major will not have an E and Eb in it. The Seventh degree would be D#. E F# G# A B C# D# E. The key sig for E major is four sharps, which are FCGD.

e flat and d# are the same note... so what are you saying?

panamanian911 (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)

yes...what he said is actually not true... if he wants to label it by fingerings, the best way would be to say that you have to learn the major scale all through the fret board.. and then to be aware that each mode of a single tone is a major scale played in a different place .. like you said.. d major is e dorian..

well mayb but modes are just scales with a different name applied else where ... ie e dorian is d major???

Like you start, there is only like 2 modes. NO, there are 7 modes...

Wait wait, I collect my jaw from the floor. Please, I mean PLEASE, learn stuff first before you try to teach them. You might confuse some one who really want's to learn. If they "learn" stuff like this, it is very hard to get them understand the correct way. It's kinda same way of all your videos (all that I've watched as I didn't believe my ears and eyes...)

Seriously, it doesn't take any brains to figure out how to construct each mode. However knowing how to apply these modes is a bit harder, still easy though. Also E ionian has a D# not an E flat :P

There is not enough information here to give anyone an "understanding" of the modes. Sorry. Well presented though.

Pretty helpful. Thanks.
