Dorian Fingering vs mixolydian Fingering

[shaytrager trager]

Hey Richie
Do we need think when we play the Dorian Fingering Pattern
about the mixolydian scale that is parallel to it
and that we all redy know? (for exsampel Dorian Fingering Pattern #2 is the same as mixolydian 5 )
or should we think about it from its on root?
and us that is the same for others?
like pat 5 dorian and pat 1 mixlydian
and pat 1 dorian and pat 4 mixolydian?
thanks
shay

Think of each scale from its root or you won’t be thinking in terms of the real chord tones and extensions! This question comes up a lot. I answer it in more detail in the FAQ section. Please read the answer to the 1st question under “Heptatonic Fingerings”.
