The phrygian dominant scale has a haunting and tense quality that can really add an "exotic" touch to your music, both in terms of melody and harmony.

In this lesson we explore phrygian dominant, starting with its ingredients and then moving on to its application in harmony and melody.

By training your ear to the phrygian sound, as I encourage you to do in this lesson, you'll know when to pull it out of the bag for your lead playing.

Continue your exploration of this wonderful scale on my lesson page, where you'll find backing tracks, diagrams and all the good stuff...

    When a great guitarist uses this scale, you know the song will be epic.
  • Basically, this is a super scale! It sounds beautiful with the chordal harmony, it's great for tension, AND it's more powerful as a 5 chord. Not many scales hold these combined qualities.
  • @voskresene
    This is some of the best content I've seen on the net for guitar players. Good work.
  • So it is basically a harmonic minor scale, but starting on the 5th note. Thanks man! I love this cannel.

    This is one of the best videos of scales I've ever seen. Thank you for this man, you deserve much more subs and views
  • @mononoaware1960
    This is the only channel that can somehow make exotic stuff applicable for me, thank you for your work. Your Lydian Dominant and Melodic Minor videos are absolute gold. It’s great that you explain how and where to use these scales while also teaching the theory behind it. These sounds are a lot more accessible to me when given actual examples of them in action.

    I've learned quite a bit from these lessons in an hour or so. I will say after nearly 20 years of guitar, piano, saxophone and more. I feel like I know much less than I thought after seeing your content. Well done.
