🎵Circle of Fifths Progression 🎵- in all 7 modes! (Fun with Music Theory)

In this video, I show you how the circle of fifths progression changes when we use the different modes.

"Modes" are scales that are built off of the seven different notes in a major scale, also called ionian mode. There are 7 modes, corresponding to the 7 notes in the major/ionian scale. They are: ionian, dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian, aeolian, and locrian.

In this video, I have transposed each of those modes to use the same tonic (starting) note, and have shown you with accidentals how the scale changes from mode to mode.

Hello Andrevy, I enjoy your use of harmony and voice leading here. I wonder what some of the Bach chorales would sound like with 'updated' harmony and freer voice leading (within reason!)

Aside from the strictly theoretical perspective would you explain the practical application when making music? Many of us are aware of things such as the circle of fifths but are at a loss applying the theory to our playing.

Though, when applied strictly, we wouldn't be allowed to speak of it as the "circle of fifths" anymore, am I right?

Is it just me or are the bass notes really out of tune?
