Hi all,

I tried to post a new topic about Festus, Motherlode's tune.

I didn't copy what I wrote, so I can't redo it here.

Will this new topic get posted manually by a forum admin? I've noticed that other new topics have been showing up a day or two later....

Thanks...

I was playing Motherlode’s tune Festus at the piano the other night. (I'm going to throw this out there and see if anyone can make any sense whatsoever of what I'm trying to say....) I heard the melody as emphasizing the II chord of the Lyd key while the stated harmony was a LYD I or VI chord. I a...

Sandy said: I’m going to examine this more. Any change might be due to two factors: 1. The inclusion of the Lydian b7 scale as an official scale 2. Making the tonal order follow more closely the cycle of fifth but b2nd but at the end. Good points Sandy. Interesting about point #2. On the AAJ there...

Hey Motherlode, Nice chart man. (RE: The tonal gravity chart/intervals.) I was looking at it, and thought something was unusual at first. Then I realized that George must have exchanged the positions of the 4th and the b7 (in terms of the 10 tone order and 11 tone order) between the older editions a...

OK, the post comes through but obviously something's still wrong: Could not insert new word DEBUG MODE SQL Error : 145 Table './namron_forum/phpbb_search_wordlist' is marked as crashed and should be repaired INSERT IGNORE INTO phpbb_search_wordlist (word_text, word_common) VALUES ('back', 0), ('hey'...

Hey, are we back?

To preface my question, here's something I posted to the AAJ: Hey Ed and all, B+MA7: Does R expore (explain) this in LCC? I'm curious as to what LCC suggests as "inside" pcs on this chord-type. The most inside point of view on the B+MA7 would be to put the B on the first degree of the B &q...

If Parker's contribution to music was the bebop scale, and Cage's contribution was "chance operations", what is the contribution of The Concept? You guys have been far more poetic than I am going to be. But if you mention a nuts and bolts aspect like the bebop scale, then I would say that...

dds,

I don't know if I'll have any good input for you or not, but at the moment I am not following your question...?

Would you clarify for us?

Thanks!

"Nuff, said."? I feel a Coda coming. Hah ha! Like Jack Teagarden said at the end of a song - kinda hesitantly as a few beats went by - "I'm gonna take a trambone coda...." CN said: This is in no way saying I want to dilute our discussion on the intricacies and details - or compa...

Bob,

Well said. I knew even as I wrote it that "scientific" was not the best choice of words.

(But, demonstrating fundamental assumptions outside of a theory is always a problem. (That buzz-killer Godel, again) I read Godel about 23 years ago, and I do remember some basics, but I can't discuss the finer points. A premise like the tonal gravity of the fifth is a fair enough place to start, r...

I jumped into a Concept debate on yet another jazz list (different from the one mentioned above) and was floored by the hostile, "hate mail" that I got from a few members. And believe me, it was not my delivery - this attitude was towards the Concept and I was simply the messenger. So this...

Bob said in a previous thread regarding interval tonics: Example I:9 shows up after the creation of the LCC and is justified by the order of scales as a result of the tonal gravity scheme, not prior to it as inferred from the caption "interval tonic justification of the Lydian scale.' That is, ...

Hi all, I think I may be in danger of stating what is obvious to some here so please indulge me while I get my thoughts straight. I feel Sandy has posted the answer to some of the questions - including some of mine - about the Interval Tonic chart when he reminded us: [quote]Thoughts about interval ...
