PART VII NOTES ON THE THIRD AND FOURTH STRINGS To learn the names of the notes on the third and fourth strings, we will make use of the octave. The notes below are one octave apart.

5

7

Since notes an octave apart have the same letter name, both of the above notes are A's. This works all the way up and down the fretboard . So, since you already know the notes on the sixth string, you can now memorize them on the fourth string. repeat

THE MODES Originating in early Christian chants and hymns, the modes were the predecessors of our curre nt scale system of major/minor tonality. About 400 years ago, the modal system slowly began to be replaced, but it was not completely abandoned.

:

In music today, use of the modes is reappearing, but in an expanded way that incorporates the m into our current scale system. Although the function of the modes today is different than when th ey formed the foundation of music, they are still called by their original Greek names. Modes are displaced scales. Below, the modes of the C major scale are shown. Notice that eac h mode uses the same notes; only the root changes.

For comparison, each mode will begin on the same note, below. On the cassette, a short melody is played using each mode. Listen for a mood or feeling to associate with each one. With practice you can eventually learn to recognize each mode just by sound. This will enable you to learn by ear much faster as well as more accurately.

THE PHRYGIAN MODE As you have just learned in the previous section, the Phrygian mode (or scale) is the same as the natural minor except for the second degree. The tones of the Phrygian are 1, b2, b3, 4, 5, b6, b7, 1.

Not only does the Phrygian mode sound dark and heavy, but the flatted second degree pulls strongly down to the root and gives a "Spanish" sound, characteristic of flamenco guitar. Below are the Phrygian patterns with the roots on the sixth and fifth strings. Notice the similarity to the natural minor scale.

THE SPANISH-FLAMENCO SCALE The Spanish-flamenco scale is the same as the Phrygian except for the third degree. The tones of the Spanish-flamenco scale are 1, b2, 3, 4, 5, b6, b7, 1.

As in the Phrygian mode, the flatted second degree pulls strongly down to the root giving its characteristic flamenco sound. However, the Spanish-flamenco scale is not as dark sounding and the three-fret interval between the second and third degree gives an even more dramatic sound. The major third gives this scale a stronger and brighter sound than the Phrygian scale. Below are the patterns for the Spanish-flamenco scale.

SPEED EXERCISES FOR "MYSTIC PLACES" You may want to practice the exercises below as if they were written in sixteenth notes first. After you have the notes down, try getting the feel of the thirty-second notes (just tap your foot half as fast).

"Mystic Places" is based on the Spanish-flamenco scale. Notice the exotic sound of the ~2nd/ major 3rd (throughout the solo) as well as the eerie diminished 5th (in the last phrase). Practice each part until you have it up to speed before trying to put it together.
