Music Theory can be intimidating to learn as a beginner with no prior knowledge, however, it can improve your music writing skills significantly! As someone who never received a formal education on music theory, I'm here to teach what I believe to be the most important concepts a beginner should learn. I strongly believe in the concept of learning from your peers, so just remember I was once in your shoes!
HUGE thank you to my Patrons:

I've decided that this winter break I am going to throw myself into music and your videos have helped a TON. I haven't had any instruction on anything musical past a unit in middle school. Keep it up I really appreciate it, and your music is good too! (i mean why learn from people who can't put it into practice right?)

@@adrim888 seeing as you're learning theory first, practical usually follows. However if you want to get a feel for the piano, find a tutorial on some music you like (I recommend Amosdoll music) and learn those. By doing this you will find it easier to play certain chords, recognise certain progressions etc.

@jgvnfejkghteigluhtie
@jgvnfejkghteigluhtie 2 жыл бұрын
Good video for beginners for the most part, it's well explained. Just a mistake and a few extra stuff to point out: The numbering system for octaves is actually A0 B0 C1 D1 E1 ... C2... A7 B7 C8, and not A0 B0 C0 D0... as said in the video. When you mention the minor scale; you explain the natural minor scale. There is also melodic and harmonic minor albeit the natural minor scale is probably used the most in modern popular music out of these three. You mention the Dorian mode. In the video, you use the D dorian scale/mode. (This is basically the all white keys from D to D). Relative to a major scale though, this would be 1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7 8. There are 7 modes to check out. For example, C dorian would be C D Eb F G A Bb C. After this video, you basically know Ionian and Aeolian (just fancy names for major and natural minor scales respectively, also most popular) modes. So that leaves 4/5 more to check out if you want to get more acquainted. The way that 7th chords are presented in naming is correct, although the most popular 7th chords would be dominant 7th chords. This just means that you have the 7 actually flat compared to the major 7th, then it would be called C7. (C E G Bb) ie 1 3 5 b7 Maybe the next stuff to learn are the diminished, augmented, and suspended chords ;). Just thought writing this might help those who are interested to learn more.

Augmented chords are practically nonexistent in tonal music and "suspended chords" generally speaking are contrapuntal rather than harmonic in nature. Also, melodic and harmonic minor "scales" are just mixture between minor and major scales and not really proper scales you should learn, because the way you should mix them is on a note by note basis.
@shayukilol8887
@shayukilol8887 2 жыл бұрын
However, I agree that Dominant 7th chords should have been touched upon. Those are the most popular ones by a mile in functional harmony.

I've taken piano lessons for 5 years and was playing really advanced songs. I had no music theory my teacher believes that first you have to listen to music then play and then read and learn theory. So when I'd played for 6 months I was playing better than people that had been playing for 3 years. Not all but a lot of people at the concerts I played at thought that I'd played for way longer than I had. But one thing is that I never used the music sheet. They thought that was impressive but I think it's much more impressive to be able to just read and play at the same time. Even a music teacher in school wants me to play piano for a musical even though I don't take music as a course in school. I think it's fun but if you are in the same situation as me. Learn the theory, it opens up so many new opportunities. I can't take requests instantly. I have to learn the song by hard.

my boy this is the best beginners guide I've ever encountered. Your editing style, explanation technique and over all length on each subject is exactly right. I have ADHD and have had a difficult time learning music theory I have learned random chunks of it over the years but never linearly and never completely so it's a very scatterbrained way of trying to learn something, While I already knew pretty much all of the info in this video I was still captivated because of the style and clarity it was presented in. Please do more videos delving deeper into theory and please go all the way into the more complex stuff with but presented the same way this video was presented if you can. Great job, keep up the good work.

As I'm a beginner I was very much interested in this video but it was quite difficult to follow certain parts. But as I learnt some basic stuff through other materials and had a minimal knowledge, i revisited this video and let me tell you this is really amazing the way you have put together all necessary information in a short video. Now my understanding of chords and scales is higher than i could have imagined :) thank you for this!!

Hey. Props to you for concentrating on the important things and not making it too complex for a beginner. So many music theory videos go into some completely unnecessary things like secondary dominants or different modes that it just quickly becomes overwhelming even though that important is very rarely useful to your average musician.

I took music in high school for 5 years but due to a lack of people wanting to take the class and a terrible teacher, I gained practically no knowledge besides how to shabbily play the Titanic theme. I literally just learned more from your 8 minute video than all of my formal classes combined. You made a lot of information easy to digest rather than dragging it out. Very easy for beginners to understand, thanks~ You got yourself a new subscriber (^o^)/

I use the number of notes for each space to remember major and minor Major: 1 1 2 1 1 2. Minor: 1 2 1 2 1 1 Which means 1 note (space) 1 note (space) 2 notes (space) for the major. Same thing goes for minor.

@doodoopoo 3 жыл бұрын
it's better to use half steps and whole steps, it's just counting the distance between notes It's probably just as easy and everyone uses it major scale would be: whole whole half whole whole whole half And you'll see it's the same pattern, but getting used to this terminology helps a lot i know this comment is 1 year old lol, just in case a beginner comes across it
