[@gaillyn1110]

Gracie… I have no words! I haven’t played piano for over 30 years and as a child, I had such a mental block about music theory that I ended up quitting lessons. I have never heard theory taught so beautifully and understandably as you have done! I am so very very grateful for all the effort that you have put into making these videos and I look forward to my progression because of your teaching. Thank you again so much.

[@GracieTerzian]

What a kind and beautiful note! Thank you so much!!!! I am so happy to read this!!

[@DisruptedSinner]

I simply don't know how you don't have 2 billion subs at this point - for the following reasons: 1. You sing like a frickin' angel 2. Your mastery of music theory and amazingly understandable presentation of it is beyond any music teacher I've ever seen 3. You're gorgeous and seem like one of the nicest people anyone would want to meet I've been playing metal guitar for like 35+ years and you've taught me so much with this channel - so thank you so much for that. You've opened up the world of music for me again. High praise? Yes, indeed - and well deserved.

[@charlesedwards7638]

You have the best approach I have ever seen in my life! I've been playing for over 20 years and you STILL have taught me things I didn't know or rather, things I didn't even realize I knew and things I kinda knew but didn't know how to use them. I would recommend you to anyone that wanted to master the basics and grow into a better musician!

[@extanegautham8950]

Thing is, there are so many videos about music theory on line from people that are either pretty poor at explaining, or are so dry or nasally, that its impossible to sit thru more than 45 seconds....Here is someone that anyone would wish were their neighbor or cousin or friend, another words friendly and warm in her/his manner, and who is excited to teach, and clear in her teaching....For me, that's what makes it a joy to learn here....Thank you...

[@dobropauloc]

Wow, it looks like all these incredibly positive comments go on for miles! And after watching this, I understand why ... you're a fantastic teacher and know how to explain difficult concepts with great clarity. About the only thing I could add is that with no music background I purchased my first dobro at age 70. It's been challenging, but now at 75 I'm able to play about 15 or 20 tunes. But I could never understand much theory or the Circle of 5ths. Finally this weekend I just decided that I had to somehow figure it out if I wanted to advance much further. I accidentally stumbled onto your site and it was eye-opening. I've been glued to my screen watching and taking notes. Thank you so much!!! I've watched two of your circle videos so far, and can't wait to get into minor keys, diatonic chords, etc. You've helped me rediscover the magic of playing music! Thank you so much!!!!!!

[@GracieTerzian]

Wow that is amazing!! Thank you SO much for your kind words. I really, really appreciate them. Keep up the great work and good luck with your continued musical journey!!

Hi Gracie, Gerald here again. I'm a self taught bass player with no music theory back ground. I played with a guitar player Noah Nihau from Hawaii who first introduced me to circle of fifths he didn't really explain it to me in detail but suggested I learn it and now I'm learning it with you thank you! His playing was very creative, I'm sure the circle of fifths had a lot to do with it, that's what I want. He has since passed away and I miss him and his playing..😔

[@rustyl.6358]

This, like your other videos, is extremely helpful. I'm in my 13th month of learning guitar and music theory, as a hobby, being an adult with a family, job, mortgage, etc. Just a few days ago I attempted to write a chord progression of my own. I did it by ear trying to find chords and rhythm that sounded good. Though I did lean on what little I know of theory. I did find something I really liked. And I now practice it daily. It turns out I used tension and release, and shared adjacent keys in my short composition without knowing it. Now I know why it sounds good and is enjoyable to listen to. Thanks again for your excellent teaching methods from one of your Patreons.

[@anewhair]

This is SUUUUUPER HELPFUL!!! I’ve been trying to understand this and nobody breaks it down as simply as you do! Everybody talks about the I, IV and V chords but nobody explains why they matter so much. You’re such a good teacher! Thank you!!

Where have you been all my musical life! As someone with adhd, I’ve always found it extremely hard to concentrate on theory, but you make it so easy that you’ve given me knew hope, because after 30 years of getting nowhere I was ready to throw in the towel. And then I found your videos and I finally get it. Thank you very much! xx

[@paulsadhan7956]

Gracie let me tell you I have watched alot of Guitar tutorials but they explanation is as clear as mud. You simplified it like bread and butter.

Your explanation is UNBELIEVABLE. God bless 🙂

@@GracieTerzian Why does noone mention that the new sharps are the 7th note in the key so subtract one, before G is F, before D is C etc? And the new flats are the 4th note of the key. That's the easiest way, 🤔 except you still gotta learn about beads like some hippy.

Light bulb moment as I watched your video - I can use the circle to figure out the chords for a typical 145 blues progression. 1 step counter clock wise for 4 chord and 1 step clockwise for the 5 chord! Love these moments! Thanks very much for your lessons

[@chrislaing8444]

I’ve just stumbled across this and it’s the only explanation that makes sense. I’ve just got back into playing the piano and struggling with this but it’s starting to make sense. You’re the only person who differentiates between, “here’s a pattern,“ and “You just need to find a way to remember this.” Hopefully the penny will drop when I can apply this. Many thanks. I’ll definitely check out your other videos. I do feel some teachers enjoy making this as complicated as possible. That’s why these videos are great.

[@peoriaos6627]

Nice video... I've always used the circle of 5ths purely for jazz. Here's a tidbit to add to that... if you are going down a fifth, flatten the 7th, which creates the fourth of the scale of the next key a fifth down. Oppositely, going up a fifth, you sharpen the fourth to get the 7th of the next key up. I really like the key change usage, especially for a complex tune. Thanks!

When you explain the complimentary relationships vs those that are not when opposed. it always helps to use songs everybody knows to illustrate the point! That's how teachers set concepts into concrete. It takes those on the edge of grasping the concepts to ringing the bell! Just a suggestion that might help you be able to set your teachings in a higher percentage of the students tuning in! Otherwise, carry on. Always a pleasure!

I just bought my upgraded Yamaha, a P45, and it arrived yesterday. So I needed to brush up on my piano lesson that I learned when I was 7 years old. Im almost 70 now. I learned piano the classic or solfeo way. This is totally Greek to me. But at 70 I have learned the great benefit of humility and just enough self-confidence that makes me aspire for more wisdom and knowledge. Ive naturally never learned about the Circle of 5th and 4th, even when I studied piano for 8 years until I entered college and my medical-related profession got the upper hand and piano time could not even compete with my attention span. But with the new Keyboard Im determined to start from scratch. I am still completely confused about the whole Circle. Just bits and pieces of understanding but I still cant connect the dots. Maybe with time my brain might catch on. Who knows I might have an epiphany. My new Yamaha might help make that happen. Thanks for this lesson anyhow.

[@abc456f]

Have you got it down after 7 months? It took a concentrated effort on my part to understand it, but I've finally reached the point where it's totally clear. If you have any questions, I'd be glad to help answer them, as a keyboard player myself.

[@tazg349]

@@abc456f Nope! I did try. But hopeless for me. You cant teach old dogs new tricks and that's me. LOL! I took whatever music books I kept all these years and resurrected them. I have one modern pop music book for the 70s to 90s contemporary songs and an old music book with all my classic pieces I learned from yester years. Im currently mastering three songs, Moonlight Sonata, Just the Way You Are, Prelude in E Minor. I start with songs I generally enjoy to listen to keep the motivation up but actually I just play these to restart my piano fingering up to par and revive my old pattern of not looking at my fingers again. Oh my! this is like starting from scratch. But its ok, Im retired and its one of my hobbies I believe is just as good as playing word puzzle for my brain health. Thanks for your helpful response.

I feel like learning music is alot like trying to find the right moment to pull out into fast moving rush hour traffic! Or like yur trying to jump on a train going in a circle that has no beginning and no end! Lol! Everything is so tied together. Watching this video I'm thinking back to a couple of the popular chord progressions I learned while taking lessons as a kid.. progressions to this day still so engrained into me. But literally each chord I've spent years feeling so limited to are deeply connected to many other avenues! I've often thought of myself as not a beginner guitarist because I've played for so long... but have a healthy humbleness to refuse to even consider myself as "intermediate" either.. 😆 I love the fact she has linked various topics to other videos she has made... then says to stop and go watch it if you don't understand. Well I did watch some of them other videos... and I'm still just as lost! Lol! I'm exaggerating! Ha! I think as soon as I get home tonight I'm gonna pick up my guitar and play out the 1-4-5 of each key! Then try throwing in those minors! This is super interesting! :) I'm certain I've played this while learning songs over the years... just never understood why or how those chords fit into this musical theory!
