Now we're going to take a look into our first mode that is a minor mode the Dorian mode
Dorian mode is built off the second degree of the Ionian mode
But the way we're going to look at it is we're going to see all of these scales and modes as scales or modes unto
Themselves and the way to do that is through the degree formula that I explained back in Ionian
So what Dorian is as compared to major remember parallel major comparison the degree the formula is this one two flat three
Four five six flat seven what I mean by flat three and seven is
Those degrees are lowered by a half step.
So let me play it for you
I'm going to take that same scale fingering I did back in Ionian and the one I kept shifting around
Within the three styles that I demonstrated it in so I'm going to play that same fingering again and see except this time
I'm going to adjust those degrees
Anytime that they show up in the fingering.
So let me walk you through that
So what I have here is the root again.
Remember we're in C.
We're gonna play C Dorian.
So C is the one
[D] D is the second so nothing's [G] changed so far
Now I'm going to flat the three.
So previously the three was here now
I'm going to lower it a [Eb] half step and this is all on your charts to that
There's a you know right there as all of the basic fingers will be laid out for you.
So just look for C Dorian
so
[Abm] Flat three is right there
[F] Four and [Gm] five are the same as they were in Ionian
[A] Let me go to six again still the same as Ionian now
I'm going to lower the seventh degree instead of it being B and play B flat
[Bb] That's [C] root.
So we're going to the [Gm] second octave to [Eb] flat three is a flat F is [E] 4
[G] G is 5
The 6 [Gbm] still stays we have a [Bbm] and then the 7 is now flat.
So it's flat 7 and
Then we'll still [C] have our room
[Em] [Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] [Bb]
Now I'm going to take the Dorian mode and put it over three different styles
Just like I did an Ionian so we can see the textures and how these notes sound over the chords that are going to be
Underneath that are relative to Dorian.
I'm going to put them in a funk jam or funk vibe
Over a jazz vibe and then I'm going to do a minor blues
All three of these settings are perfect for Dorian and while we're doing that we're going to check out something
That really wasn't apparent in the Ionian mode
But it's going to be very important in a lot of modes after this and that's how the tritone
What a tritone is where it is and how it works and how it really?
Colors and adds the character the main character to a mode.
So let's find out what
Dorian mode is built off the second degree of the Ionian mode
But the way we're going to look at it is we're going to see all of these scales and modes as scales or modes unto

I'm going to lower it a [Eb] half step and this is all on your charts to that

So just look for C Dorian
so
[Abm] Flat three is right there
[F] Four and [Gm] five are the same as they were in Ionian
[A] Let me go to six again still the same as Ionian now
I'm going to lower the seventh degree instead of it being B and play B flat
[Bb] That's [C] root.
So we're going to the [Gm] second octave to [Eb] flat three is a flat F is [E] 4
[G] G is 5
The 6 [Gbm] still stays we have a [Bbm] and then the 7 is now flat.
So it's flat 7 and
Then we'll still [C] have our room
[Em] [Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] [Bb]
