Modes In Your Music
In music theory, the modes offer some of the most exciting and useful tools out there. Each mode has a unique sound! If you learn how to use the modes to create theses sounds, you'll gain access to a wide palette of emotions and vibes to use in your music. The sounds of modes are perfect for writing songs, scoring videogames and films, or composing in any genre. If you've ever wondered, how can I make this section of music more moody? Or perhaps triumphant? Using the modes in your music can be the answer you've been looking for!
This course is all about intuitively understanding how each mode sounds and how to get those sounds into your music. The course takes an ear-training-first approach to get you singing and playing the modes right away. Then, with the sounds fresh in our ears, we go deep into the music theory behind the sounds. Then I'll show you how I use those sounds in my music so you can see exactly how these concepts go from theory to actual music.
Get ready to grow your ears and musical possibilities with Modes In Your Music!
Hi, I'm Ben Levin
I graduated from Berklee College of Music and have been teaching music lessons privately and on my YouTube channel for 15 years. I've also spent the last decade touring in original bands and releasing 25 albums and EPs. From this combination of making educational content and original music I've learned a lot about how to take the theory I learned in music school and use it to add variety and depth to my art. Over the years, many of my students have learned to use the modes in their music and I hope to help you use them as well!
