繼上次練習完C Major Scale 及 C Minor Harmonic後,發現Blues Scale都好好玩,玩上左癮。用數字代表,Blues Scale 是 1 b3 4 b5 5 b7,那個b5就是Blues的特色。
聽說Blues的Chords都好有特點,無論是 I chord, IV chord, V chord…. 她們全都是dominant seventh chord。在音樂的詞匯內,Dominant解作第五音。 Dominant Seventh Chord 一般是第五Chord才會用的,例如,C調的民歌或一般的流行曲中我們會用這一些Chords C, Dm, Em, F, G7, Am。是第五Chord才”7″Chord的。但是,blues的音樂全部都會是 Dominant Seventh Chord。例如Twelve-bar blues 的 chord sequence 是 (C調)
C7 C7 C7 C7
F7 F7 G7 G7
G7 F7 C7 G7
今次錄了一段C調的riff。Backing chord 是 C7。
After practicing the five pattern of C major scale and C minor harmonic scale on my guitar, I am now playing with the Blues Scale. It’s so fun that I got addicted the scale. FYI, the formula of blues scale is 1 b3 4 b5 5 b7. Among the notes, b5 is the signature note of a blues scale.
You can tell easily that if a piece of music is blues: it’s full of “Dominant Seventh Chord”. In the context of music, “dominant” means the 5th. So, we use this chord if it’s a seventh Chord. Well, in blues, no matter it’s the 1st, 4th or 5th chord, it’s dominant seventh chord. eg. C7 F7 G7… for a twelve-bar blues in C, chord sequence would be
C7 C7 C7 C7
F7 F7 G7 G7
G7 F7 C7 G7
I record a riff. it’s C blues scale with a backing chord C7

最近有朋友電郵了Youtube上有人用一枝吉他彈了J S Bach的 Air。唔怕炒冷飯,我又聽翻自己以前用電吉他及低音吉他錄了的Air。在此一登,方便大家聽。

上次學完風帆初級班,同學們都意猶未盡,得知聖記9月有期,大家即興高彩烈地約好朋友們,準備8號9號上課。可惜臨近上課日,一個二個話有事做,不能出席,最後只餘下Sari及Janet。雖然缺席的人己付學費,但也感到沒勁。情形就好似啊媽煮好飯,後來個個就話唔黎食飯,雖然買餸錢己付,但煮好飯沒人吃,真係沒有心機。唉!只餘下兩位女士,唔知到時會唔會出現呢…….. 佢地未俾錢架。
好在兩位女士守承諾,準時到達聖記,而且中心還安排了個年輕的女教練… 嘻嘻嘻:P

滑浪風帆的教學配套不錯。在正式下水前,同學可以在陸上的模擬器上練習,感受移動帆對板的方向的影響。不過,模擬器一定要放在平的地面上,否則就見不到較果了。 |

X_X 不過,在海上做還是不容易的,對於初學者來說,又要應付浪,又唔知風在那裡,個帆看起上來又重,第一天幾乎是起帆,跌低,起帆,跌低;能量意志很容易耗盡。 |
