Do I need to memorize/practice ALL the MODES?
![Page 5: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Using modes correctly
1. practice Them

Using modes correctly
2. Find Them
![Page 12: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
on modes
Question
1. What mode does the melody in the Amen of total praise use?
2. What does the 4th mode of all the major, melodic, and harmonic minor have in common?
3. How would you find the notes to a Super Locrian in Ab?
4. Find the notes to a Lydian Augmented in Eb?5. The Band is Holding a Bflat in the bass and you
decide you want to quickly execute a descending Bflat mixolydian? What do you do?
![Page 13: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The current thinking about modes, forces you to constantly change the key.
It’s not practical
![Page 14: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Say you wanted to Find a C Lydian?The reason I used to get confused with this is because I incorrectly assumed that you
would go to C. then find the C lydian mode, which sometimes looked like thisf-g-a-b-c-d-e
This just shows how youwould find F Lydian, by looking at
the 4th mode of C!!! crazy!
![Page 15: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Say you wanted to Find a C Lydian?
C lydian mode is actually:C-D-E-F#-G-A-B
So to find the Lydian of ANY key, I just need to raise the 4th note,
of the major scale. Got it!
![Page 16: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
I realized I only need to remember how each mode deviates from the major
scale
![Page 17: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Use Circle of Fifths
![Page 18: How to use Modes the right way - Sean Wilson Piano](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022042405/625e0aa669897d1f432f2015/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
So here is the ORDER that I practice and what makes natural sense. Plus it keeps you in the same key causing greater retention modes
Lydian
Ionian
Mixolydian
Aeolian
Phrygian
Locrian
Dorian

Expand only as you can implement the major ones fairly easily
?? Pentatonic Altered Scale for extended voicings
