Riffs You can Use


Riffs You can Use - Part 18 Lyle: americans found something to drink to Support: you don't have to play somewhere? Lyle: Here's a chord progression built in the key of E major. Lyle: Here's a jam track for this progression: Lyle: In the lesson sample I played a solo using the E major scale: Lyle: Since we are in the key of E major, the relative minor is C#m. Playing the C# minor pentatonic scale gives you a cool sound against the E major chord progression: Lyle: Most of the solo uses the C# minor pentatonic. At the end of the solo, the Emajor scale is used for more melody: Lyle: did i miss your question phil? Phil: aren't C# minor and E major the same? Lyle: Yes, they are made from the same notes. C#m is the relative minor of E major. Phil: why do you differentiate them in your previous comment? Lyle: The minor pentatonic has only 5 tones in it, the major scale has 7 tones. The C# relative minor has 7 tones in it. Phil: ok, got it Phil: I see that in the guitar neck Lyle: good Lyle: That's about all on this riff. I just wanted you to see and hear the difference and use of the minor pentatonic against the major key. Phil: great, thanks Lyle: I don't think I'll be here next Monday. I have a rehearsal with a band for a gig in San Diego the following weekend. So I'll be back here in two weeks from tonight. Lyle: Have a good night and see you again in two weeks. MiVidaLoca: thank you Lyle: welcome	<< load notation from left
