@swaggyboi-nk9rb Ай бұрын

@@jojotheworld thank you bro, you’re a big inspiration! ive been singing solfege and i got a couple question, i know #4 and b5 are same not but like how would i train that scale degree, would it depend on what scale im using like the context? also what would be like a simple roadmap to being able to play songs by ear, like figuring out chord progressions and qualities, would i train internalizing the scale degrees first, how would i proceed training to hear chord progressions? im sorry if that was kinda long, ive just been kinda lost, and im really determined to have a highly trained ear

@jojotheworld Ай бұрын

@@swaggyboi-nk9rb great questions, are you in the free skool group? If so join and we can talk more on there. For #4/b5 it is very context dependent but usually a good rule of thumb is that there will only be one of each number(1-7). So for example if you’re wondering if you should call a note #4 or not, ask yourself if there is already a 4, and then you’re adding this note that’s a half step up then it would be called b5, on the other hand if your scale already has 5 then the note a half step below would be called #4. So if you’re studying the 4 chord/4th harmonic environment it would have the notes 4,5,6,7,1,2,3 The 7 could be considered the #4 of the scale because the scale contains note 1, which is the fifth of four. For figuring out chord progressions it’s mostly about being able to recognize the baseline and how that fits into the tonal octave hope this helps

@TheAlam0 Ай бұрын

So in that case learning the tones of the chords by heart will help your writing process and even if you come up with a melody or beat in your head you will have a easier time transferring it to the instrument. Thank you!

@sadsakjdwjkdHJSDAJK Ай бұрын

this. learn your intervals kids, also when youre learning a song, dont go straight for the tab, really try and learn it by ear first by using your knowledge of intervals and then if youre really stuck use the live performance or tab also, i have a question, youre counting up to12 right? like every interval? so 1 3 would be root to major 2nd

@jojotheworld Ай бұрын

@@sadsakjdwjkdHJSDAJK thank you for the response! I would say it’s actually deeper than just learning intervals. To answer your other question no I am not counting up to 12 I am counting only to 7, so 1 to 2 would be a major second. To refer to a minor second it would be 1 to b2.(or 3 to 4 would also be a minor second) Everything is based on the major scale basically and to study chords you start on a different note of the major scale that is the root of the chord(so for the 4 chord your floor and ceiling of study is more 4) The reason I said it’s deeper than learning intervals is because it’s not enough to hear something and be able to say “that’s a major third… perfect fourth… etc) to really understand you need to know WHICH major third it is, for example is it note 1 to note 3? Note 4 to note 6? Note 5 to note 7? Where exactly in the tonal octave are you when you’re hearing this major third. That’s the real key

@sadsakjdwjkdHJSDAJK Ай бұрын

@@jojotheworld thanks for clarifying and yeah I agree about the more than intervals thing that’s what I meant I should’ve phrased what I said better wdym by study chords tho? I thought that exercise was to help recognize the scale degrees, to recognize chords I find I have to recognize the sound of the chord aswell as the degree like if it’s minor or diminished or dominant or whatever which is a diff thing ig

@jojotheworld Ай бұрын

@@sadsakjdwjkdHJSDAJK haha I love the questions I can definitely make more vids on stuff like this. Basically if you have a good knowledge of scale degrees in a tonal context(meaning as they relate to the major scale) it becomes less about recognizing the degree first then the quality(major or minor) because most songs use the same chord quality for each degree of the scale, for example the 1 chord is basically always major 2 chord usually minor 6 chord usually minor. But it’s also important to study the sounds of the chords by themselves, for example choose a bass note (C for example) and set it as a degree other than 1, so now C is your 2 for example and then you study the sounds in this new environment, for example asking questions like “what does note 5 sounds like over the 2 chord” this can give you a comprehensive understanding of every melody note over every chord

@@aloomix8788 I have a video on my channel called “the best way to improve as an improviser” that may be helpful to you. The gist of it is you choose a harmonic environment(chord/mode) to study, and then you play it on your instrument(for example the 2 chord would be 2345671) then you improvise with those sounds, then you add your voice to your playing and sing the numbers out loud as you play them on the instrument, finally you take the instrument away and only sing the numbers

Short version: Learn intervals

@jojotheworld 4 ай бұрын

Well yes, but I don’t usually advocate for learning “intervals”. This is because the same interval can sound different depending on context. I take it a step further, don’t just know the interval, know exactly where in the tonal octave you are. It’s not just a perfect fourth, it’s going from note 5 to note 1(or 1 to 4 maybe). You know? Intervals aren’t really telling you the whole picture

@ezgamer8942 4 ай бұрын

It is a very hard skill yes, I can do it too but im not good as you at it. My way of seeing this is that when I play the first note of that simple song, my mind quickly makes me hear the next note and find the fret using my memory to figure out the next note. I tried that what you played and I made like 2/3 mistakes.

Seems like you’re off to a good start. As I mentioned in the vid I think the best strategy is to start associating the various scale degrees with numbers so you can start to take the guesswork out and have more more certainty

@radicalaim 4 ай бұрын

As someone who came from a piano background before picking up guitar, I have this skill down pretty well, as these nursery rhymes are all easy to play from ear because they are all in the key of C and I think of the notes like the white keys on a piano. I have been playing guitar for around 7-8 months and I have just been learning songs from songsterr without really understanding the musical composition, and I haven't improved my knowledge on musical theory. Do you think it is useful and beneficial to my future musical skills to develop my understanding of musical theory, and if so how do you recommend improving it (such as learning new chords and scales)? I've never really considered advancing my understanding of musical composition very important for electric guitar and that the only really important thing to do is work on my alternate picking speed and developing more overall muscle memory, but am i thinking about it the wrong way?

@jojotheworld 4 ай бұрын

2 things - if you’re trying to do these nursery rhymes on piano, I would suggest doing it in a random key every time, not just C that’s part of the point of the approach of using the numbers. Secondly, if you really love this music thing then getting a better grasp on theory will only help you. I help guitarists with theory from scratch in my Skool group that may be interesting to you if you’re looking for a solid foundation. I will also be posting more videos on the topic The technique stuff for guitar like alternate picking is kind of a separate thing from overall musical understanding but getting a grasp of how music really works on guitar will be a very liberating and joyful feeling
