For example, the F Lydian mode:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,B,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;and the F major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;are closely related because they have all notes in common, save for their fourth tones respectively.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth tone of the F Lydian mode is B:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;while the fourth tone of the F major scale is Bb:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Bb,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nFrom the relationship between the F Lydian mode and the F major scale, the Lydian mode can be derived by raising the fourth tone of the major scale by a half-step. In the case of the F major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;raising the fourth tone (which is Bb):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Bb,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;by a half-step (to B):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;produces the F Lydian mode:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,B,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nRaising the fourth tone of any known major scale, produces a Lydian scale as well. For example, raising the fourth tone of the D major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,Cs,D,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which is G:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,G,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;by a half-step (to G#):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Gs,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;produces the D Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,E,Fs,Gs,A,B,Cs,D,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<em>&#8220;Here Are All The Lydian Scales On The Keyboard&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>C Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nDb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Db,Eb,F,G,Ab,Bb,C,Db,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nD Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,D,E,Fs,Gs,A,B,Cs,D,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nEb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Eb,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,Eb,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nE Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,E,Fs,Gs,As,B,Cs,Ds,E,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nF Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,B,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nGb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Gb,Ab,Bb,C,Db,Eb,F,Gb,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nG Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,G,A,B,Cs,D,E,Fs,G,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nAb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Ab,Bb,C,D,Eb,F,G,Ab,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nA Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,A,B,Cs,Ds,E,Fs,Gs,A,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nBb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Bb,C,D,E,F,G,A,Bb,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nB Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,B,Cs,Ds,Es,Fs,Gs,As,B,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>The Harmony Of The Lydian Mode &#8212; <em>Explored<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The Lydian scale can be used in the formation of chords &#8212; triads, seventh, and extended chords as well. Let&#8217;s take a look at these chords associated with the Lydian mode; using the C Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;as a reference.<\/p>\n<p>The C Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;differs from the C major scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,F,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;because the fourth tone of the C major scale (which is F):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;is raised by a half-step (to F#):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Fs,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;in the C Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The Triad Of The Lydian Scale<\/h3>\n<p>The triad of the Lydian scale is produced when the first, third, and fifth tones of the Lydian scale are played or heard together. In the case of the C Lydian scale (which applies to every other Lydian scale):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;where the first, third, and fifth tones are C, E, and G (which is the C major triad):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;the\u00a0 triad of the Lydian scale is the major triad.<\/p>\n<p>Consequently, the Lydian scale can be used to improvise over corresponding major triads. For example, the Eb Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Eb,F,G,A,Bb,C,D,Eb,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;can be used to improvise over the Eb major triad:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,Eb,G,Bb,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which is the corresponding triad of the Eb Lydian scale.<\/p>\n<h3>The Seventh Chord Of The Lydian Scale<\/h3>\n<p>Going beyond the <em>triadic<\/em> level of harmony is the seventh chord level; which is basically composed of the first, third, fifth, and seventh tones of the Lydian scale played or heard together.<\/p>\n<p>Using the C Lydian scale (as a reference):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nThe first, third, fifth, and seventh tones are C, E, G, and B:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which is (for all intents and purposes) the C major seventh chord.<\/p>\n<p>Now you know that the seventh chord of the Lydian scale is the major seventh chord, feel free to improvise over any major seventh chord with a corresponding Lydian scale. For example, the A Lydian scale:<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;can be used to improvise over the A major seventh chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,A,Cs,E,Gs,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;and this is agreeable because the first, third, fifth, and seventh tones of the A Lydian scale:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,A,B,Cs,Ds,E,Fs,Gs,A,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;which are A, C#, E, and G#:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,A,Cs,E,Gs,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;produces the A major seventh chord when played or heard together.<\/p>\n<h3>Extended Chords Of The Lydian Scale<\/h3>\n<p>There are three extended chord types that belong to this category:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The major ninth chord<\/p>\n<p>The major ninth [sharp eleventh] chord<\/p>\n<p>The major thirteenth [sharp eleventh] chord<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Using the C Lydian scale (as a reference):<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,D,E,Fs,G,A,B,C,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;here are these extended chord types starting from C.<\/p>\n<p>The C major ninth chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,D,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;consists of the first, third, fifth, seventh, and ninth tones of the C Lydian scale (which are C, E, G, B, and D).<\/p>\n<p>The C major ninth [sharp eleventh] chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,D,Fs,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;consists of the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh tones of the C Lydian scale (which are C, E, G, B, D, and F#).<\/p>\n<p>The C major thirteenth [sharp eleventh] chord:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,C,E,G,B,D,Fs,A,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;consists of the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh, and thirteenth tones of the C Lydian scale (which are C, E, G, B, D, F#, and A).<\/p>\n<h2>Final Words<\/h2>\n<p>Now that you&#8217;ve seen how the Lydian mode:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hearandplay.cc\/dynamic_image\/pianokeys.php?notes=,,F,G,A,B,C,D,E,F,&amp;color=99FF33&amp;size=2\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n&#8230;can be used to derive Lydian scales by its transposition, go ahead and transpose the chords covered to other keys as well and try improvising over them using the corresponding Lydian scale.<\/p>\n<p>In a subsequent lesson, we&#8217;ll be focusing on other modes like the Mixolydian mode, Phrygian mode, etc.<\/p>\n<p>See you then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn more about the scale and harmony
