Hello! This is Donovan. I have been following your videos for a month. I believe that you are doing a great job. 😊

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Thanks so much!

[@Jessica-m5e7i]

You’re such a great teacher !! Thank you for all of your informative and educational videos

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Aw thank you so much! You’re very welcome!

[@KerryBlack-ih8yq]

This video is amazing! I knew about the three types of minor scales & how to play them but I didn't know WHY they were like this. You have explained it beautifully

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Yay! Thanks for sharing this with me and for the kind words - I appreciate you!

[@rayofaz]

[@sunving]

[@Outlawssermon79]

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Awesome thanks for saying so!

[@anabelsuerodegonzalez3061]

Great video Ashlee, thank you! And thanks also for the pdf. I’ll put it to good use, slowly but surely. Best!

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Awesome, I’m glad to hear it!

[@aBachwardsfellow]

- LOVE your video effects! (as well as your excellent instruction - of course ;-) ) That last chord of the piece can also get thrown off by those picky picardy 3rds ...

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Thank you so much for the kind words!!

I know my Minor scales, but I watched this for any musical tips you could provide, and you are true to your reputation. Very comprehensive and thorough. The explanation of the leading tone was helpful. Merci beaucoup. It's too bad there is such a time difference with your lessons... The only addition would be the melodic minor scale. it is the Major scale going up and the Natural minor going down, except there are some scales that guard the Melodic Minor for both ascending and descending. I've seen it called the Bach Scale or the Jazz Scale.

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

I’m so happy this helped you! And yes, I wish I would’ve understood the leading tone so much sooner in my Piano career :-)

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and for helping us to face the misterious world of minor scales. Greetings from Colombia.

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

You are very welcome! Thanks for taking the time to say so! 🙌🏻

In Bach, minor pieces often end in the major. This is called a Tierce de Picardy.

[@ziegunerweiser]

tend to use melodic minor in the first octave and harmonic minor in the second octave

[@Outlawssermon79]

Your best

[@DavidWilson-dx9kp]

Thanks for a fascinating look at these scales. It is interesting how the melodic minor scale is different when going down. Where does this come from?

[@revo1336]

Bach(lol) into piano after 15 year hiatus . Trying to learn more theory this time. Thx.

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

You’re welcome!

[@aBachwardsfellow]

btw/ fyi -- the text of the email that accompanies the minor scale PDF says: "Here is your free PDF of major scale fingerings!" (in case you'd want to change that ...)

[@AshleeYoungMusicStudio]

Ahhhh thank you for telling me!!!
