The sixth degree is the Locrian natural 2. _
_ _ It works over C minor 7 flat 5 too.
And this is great because it has the natural 9.
And the regular Locrian scale has a flat 9,
which is sort of an avoid note.
You can't really lay on it too much.
I'll just play the Locrian [C] natural 2 first.
_ _ [D] _ [Eb] _ [F] _ [Gb] _
[Ab] _ [Cm] _ _ [D] _ That's the natural 9 [C] over minor 7 flat 5.
Good. _ _ _
See, the regular Locrian has _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ that flat 2,
_ _ _ _ which really has a tendency to resolve.
But the natural _ _ _ _ 2_ [Eb] _ _ _ sounds [Bb] great.
It's a tension that just lays there.
Okay, the seventh degree of the melodic minor scale
gives us the altered scale,
which is a wonderful scale that really starts
getting into _ the altered sound of the dominant 7th chord.
And, you know, the way we're doing it now,
just taking one scale at a time,
you don't really see how they relate, you know,
going from one chord to another.
But we'll get to that in a minute.
Okay, the altered scale, _ C7 sharp 9.
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _

_ _ [E] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Ebm] Okay, _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ so now we've gone through 14 of these scales.
We'll keep going.
The symmetrical diminished scale.
[B] _ Now, this is sort of the stepping stone to chromaticism
_ _ and in jazz today, you hear all these chromatic lines
that are not really scale. _
And a lot of that's coming from the diminished scale.
Once again, this works over an altered dominant chord
_ and only with natural 13 as one of the tensions.
And _
