Hey,

I get the idea about modes and scales and how each mode is actually a part of the Major scale. But does it work like I'm about to tell?

I have G Mixolydian in the A minor scale. So if I play notes from A minor scale over a G (major?) backing chord, I'm actually using "G Mixolydian" even though it's just A minor.

Or another one: I have E Phrygian in A minor scale. So if I play notes from A minor scale over a E (minor?) backing chord, I'm actually using E Phrygian.

I understand that the modes depend on the backing chord, so does it work like that?
