1 APPENDIX A SOME MUSIC INFORMATION This appendix has some general information on music. This includes: 1. Musical notes 2. Musical scale formation and the relationship of notes to the scale; 3. Chord formation; 4. Location of notes on the guitar strings. 5. Guitar notes on the musical staff. It is here for general information. MUSICAL SCALE FORMATION Western music is made up of 12 notes. Each note has a name. The names of notes are shown below. There is one "half step" between each note. Some notes have alternate names (A# is Bb). Note that A# means A sharp, and Bb means B flat. The notes are: A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G# (A A# B...) (Bb) (Db) (Eb) (Gb) (Ab) (repeats...) The most familiar scale is the Major scale which is made up of 7 of the 12 notes. 5 notes are left out, or only used for variety. The scale is also called "Ionian". We refer to these 7 notes as Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La and Ti. In Major mode, there is a half step between the 3rd and 4th (Mi and Fa) of the seven notes and between the 7th and high 1st (8th) notes (Ti and high Do). Between all other notes there is a whole step due to the 5 left out notes. This is shown below: steps between -v------v v v------v------v v v (Do) 1 (Re) 1 (Mi) 1/2 (Fa) 1 (So) 1 (La) 1 (Ti) 1/2 (Do) 1 (Re) number -> 1 2b 2 3b 3 4 5b 5 6b 6 7b 7 8 9b 9 (1#) (2#) (4#) (5#) (6#) (8#) left out -----^------^ ^------^------^ ^ The numbering convention above will be used to construct scales in Major and other modes. Specifically, in Major mode, there is always a half step between the notes called 3 and 4 and between the notes called 7 and 8 (or 1). There are whole steps between (1 and 2), (2 and 3), (4 and 5), (5 and 6) and (6 and 7). The missing notes are referred to as flat or sharp versions of the 7 used notes. Note that when we get back to Do at the high end of the scale, we can refer to the notes as 8 (or high 1), 9b (or high 2b), 9 (or high 2), etc. If a Major scale is formed in some key (say F#), the name of the key is Do The Greatest Guitar Course in the World A-1 Copyright 1983 by Raymond P. Voith
2 in the scale (Do is F#). This is the base note (not BASS). Subsequent notes of the scale are formed by moving the required number of steps, as shown above. For example: KEY OF C: steps--v------v v v------v------v v (Do) 1 (Re) 1 (Mi) 1/2 (Fa) 1 (So) 1 (La) 1 (Ti) 1/2 (Do) C D E F G A B C <- notes <- number KEY OF F#: steps--v------v v v------v------v v (Do) 1 (Re) 1 (Mi) 1/2 (Fa) 1 (So) 1 (La) 1 (Ti) 1/2 (Do) F# G# A# B C# D# F F# <- notes <- number With the above information, we can form all of the scales in Major mode. The result is: The Greatest Guitar Course in the World A-2 Copyright 1983 by Raymond P. Voith
3 SCALES AND MODES The sequence (do re mi fa sol la ti do) is well known. If the notes are numbered ( ), there are full steps between (1,2), (2,3), (4,5), (5,6), and (6,7). There are half steps between (3,4) and (7,8). A typical song might start on "do", progress through different notes and almost always finish on "do". A song that does this is said to be in "Ionian" mode. This mode has a certain "feel" to it. There are other modes that have a different "feel". One such mode is "Aoelian". This mode starts on "la", progresses through different notes and almost always finish on "la". This mode has a "sad" feel to it. The modes are characterized by the location of half steps in the progression from 1->8 (Note 8 is a repetition of 1). In all there are seven modes. Here is a table showing the modes, and the notes used for each key. do re mi fa so la ti do < Ionian < Phrygian < Dorian < Lydian < Mixolydian <---- Aeolian <- Locrian C D E F G A B C D E F G A B C# D# F F# G# A# C C# D# F F# G# A# C Db Eb F Gb Ab Bb C Db Eb F Gb Ab Bb C D E F# G A B C# D E F# G A B C# D# F G G# A# C D D# F G G# A# C D Eb F G Ab Bb C D Eb F G Ab Bb C D E F# G# A B C# D# E F# G# A B C# D# F G A Bb C D E F G A Bb C D E F# G# A# B C# D# F F# G# A# B C# D# F Gb Ab Bb B Db Eb F Gb Ab Bb B Db Eb F G A B C D E F# G A B C D E F# G# A# C C# D# F G G# A# C C# D# F G Ab Bb C Db Eb F G Ab Bb C Db Eb F G A B C# D E F# G# A B C# D E F# G# A# C D D# F G A A# C D D# F G A Bb C D Eb F G A Bb C D Eb F G A B C# D# E F# G# A# B C# D# E F# G# A# C D E F G A B C D E F G A B The Greatest Guitar Course in the World A-3 Copyright 1983 by Raymond P.
