Explaining Musical Intervals As CLEARLY As I Possibly Can [MUSIC THEORY FUNDAMENTALS]

[@MrUforobogrendizer]

The BEST music educator on the Internet

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

Why is this stuff helpful, beyond just winning arguments on reddit's /r/musictheory? Well... 🎵-Scales are written using 2nds 🎵-Triads and Extended chords get written using 3rds 🎵-Classical chords and inverted chords like 64, 63, aug6 and neopolitan 6th all refer to types of 6th intervals 🎵-Diminished and Augmented chords are named such after their diminished/augmented FIFTH 🎵-Diminished 7th chords are named after their diminished seventh INTERVAL! 🎵-The "Major Scale" just refers to the type of third used. That's why there's multiple "major scales", because many use a major 3rd. "Minor scales" refers to any scale with a small 3rd!

I thought I knew this stuff but I just learned a ton in twelve minutes. Now maybe I can communicate a little better with my Classically trained and Brazilian taught Flamenco Instructor neighbor. Augmented Seconds?? I thought those terms were reserved for 4ths and 5ths and those pesky 7th chords alone.

[@OneFatStatue]

Wow, that makes so much more sense than it did 13 minutes ago!

[@millbrook33]

This is the most aggravating thing about music theory IMO. Intervals are just weird and complicated and confusing and hard to explain, but you have to get past them to understand everything else. It's an extremely annoying gate that so many people just bounce right off. Thanks for one of the clearest explanations I've seen.

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

I absolutely agree. The cerebral "price to get in the door" for western theory is too high IMO.

[@ric6611]

Maybe I have an unpopular opinion, but I actually don't think that they are that weird and complicated... it's just that they're rarely explained in a beginner-friendly way. I think the main problem is the confusion between two different intervals having the same tone "distance". Usually, when people try to explain this, they either 1) try to explain why you may use certain letter classes over others for enharmonic notes right away, which is overwhelming for someone who doesn't even understand intervals yet, or 2) they don't put much emphasis on how you just have to look at the letter class because they don't want to open that can of worms, which is also not good because people are only left knowing "okay there are exceptions but I have no idea how to know when to use which". I think this way is probably the best I've seen since it tells you just enough to confidently know any interval provided you know the names (letter classes) of the note. Sure, when you start doing something yourself and dealing with scales, you'll have to know a little more to realize which name you should give each note (most of the time it's just making sure you use each letter once if it's a 7-note scale) and thus know which intervals it has, but I think you can learn that once you get to that point. Most of the time I think that music theory has simple concepts. Thing is, they have very deep relationships between each other so they're hard to distill and explain in simple terms, and to actually apply them you need to understand those relationships since they're rarely ever isolated. But at the same time, this is what I find so beautiful about it... with time, everything starts making more and more sense and it's so rewarding to go through the more boring parts -- they eventually become purely intuitive. Then again, I never had any "classical training" or anything... this is my opinion as simply a hobbyist who enjoys watching music theory videos. I'm not trying to boast or discourage anyone if they don't understand this, it's quite the opposite: if you don't understand something, don't despair! Maybe the explanation you saw just didn't gel with you and you should try looking for other teachers/videos. Basically, I think people often blame themselves for not understanding something, when it might just not have been explained appropriately for a beginner. Because of the relationships I spoke, even if people are talking about the basics, they will (unknowingly) introduce advanced concepts that have become second nature for them. I think they forget how hard they can be for the people they are trying to teach. Personally, though, I think Jake is one of the best teachers I've seen, he really does try to focus on the simple concepts, show you those relationships little by little, and show you how to apply them right away so you not only get the theoretical knowledge, but also the practical and intuitive one. It's not only more beginner-friendly, but it's also usually the most fun way to learn!

[@ric6611]

Then again, maybe I am also falling on the trap I mentioned of underestimating the difficulty of those concepts after you know them...

[@millbrook33]

@@ric6611 Yeah, it's not really complicated once you understand it. It's just such an awkward hodgepodge of a system that it seems that way when you attempt to explain it to someone for the first time. I think you're absolutely right that you need to look for different explanations until you find the one that clicks with your brain.

[@TheHesseJames]

This is how I work with it. I read it from front to cover either having my guitar on my lap or sitting in front of the piano. Piano is better for understanding the concept, guitar is better for using it n the guitar. Now there is no way I could digest and retain it all this way. I did it from front to cover just to know what's in there and from that on I would revisit a concept from time to time or I would look it up if I need a solution in songwriting to spice up my progressions.

Nice video! Using the concept of "letter classes" is very helpful--it's a kind of spelling rule that also answers the question why you can't simplify the C-sharp harmonic minor scale as Csharp Dsharp E Fsharp Gsharp A C Csharp, for example (letters have to appear in order and only once in a standard scale).

I was going to comment how I know this stuff but wanted a refresher to solidify my knowledge but NOOOooooo. I fully understand the intervals in the Diatonic Modes which I think of as 'All the Correct notes' and then use my ear to play 'Outside' notes for extra spice in my playing. But now I understand where some of the weirder chord names come from like the more common Tritone, I understand that naming convention a whole lot better now. 3 wholetones apart. Thanks Jake.

[@Iser1999]

Best theory channel ever. Jake is the best teacher!! Thanks for another great lesson! Honestly, the way I learned about intervals was pretty fun, I learned the minor scale all over the fretboard, then learned that it is a mode of major, and learned all the modes, played with them a lot of them until my ear started to recognize the intervals when hearing them, and then it was super easy to memorize the names for each

[@TheSquareOnes]

Couldn't agree more that scale degrees are easier to work with. I went the usual route of learning intervals first, then building chords, then the major and minor scales, then learning the modes as just "the major scale but starting here" and so on over a decade ago. None of it really clicked until finding the mode videos on this channel that related everything back to a very digestible "what degrees are different and what does that difference sound like" framing. It makes music theory... well, musical.

Music lessons in school were a pain for me because none of the theory made any sense - all those rules and exceptions from them, all the crazy, traditional naming conventions that are built on the piano keyboard or guitar frets ... it was frustrating and my brain sailed on autopilot during music classes. it wasn't until later that I approached making music myself with a DAW with a piano roll and even later, trackers (LSDJ ftw), so now I simply think of chords and intervals in terms of numbers of semitones, which doesn't help me understand musicians of course when they speak in terms of Thirds and Fifth, meaning not three and five semitones as I would naively hope. That is how your explanations of chord progressions etc are the first ones that clicked for me - "VI - V/V - I - I" is a notation that actually makes sense now, and I really wish to thank you for that. You are a great teacher! This video cleared up things further. I'm not crazy - the naming conventions are! What a block to stumble over for decades ... :/

[@TVAVStudios]

I actually think intervals are still important to know first as they form the building blocks of scales and chords. Once you understand the basic M/m/P intervals (plus the one A/d) you can explain eg the major scale as all the notes being a major or perfect interval from the root, and things like the perfect cadence work the way they do because of intervals.

[@TheHesseJames]

I'd start with learning the intervals for the major scale first 1 - 1 - 1/2 -1 -1 -1 - 1/2, it's the scale everybody can sing from the top of their head even if they don't know where the half and full steps are. Then the prallel minor key to the major scale. Then the triads and what they mean in terms of scale degree major and minor and finally the dominant 7 chords. That'll keep you busy for some time and you'll be able to understand 95% of today's pop music, well, you'd propably be overqualified already.

[@zzzaphod8507]

Yes, it made more sense to me when I learned it, to learn the intervals first

[@13flaws18]

[@dangamber5707]

[@Outside998]

This video was really great! One thing I would have loved seeing you mention is the name "octave" in regards to letter classes. Because why is it called octave, from octa = eight, when the distance is twelve halfsteps? Because in letter classes, the eighth letter is just the first letter again. A B C D E F G A

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

Forgot to mention that!!!

[@JamesAllen-p6d]

A fun songwritey way to learn intervals is to write songs with them. Randomly generate four or five intervals (minor 3rd, perfect 5th, minor7th etc.), then write a song using the following rules. You must use these intervals in the order they're generated, but you get to select which root notes they're derived from (and that you will play with them to give context) and you can add extra root notes or extra intervals to tie things together. For the advanced version, generate pairs of intervals where you're allowed to change one of them (but try not to!). Write a few songs like this and you'll be well on your way to understanding intervals. Or if you already know intervals, this is actually a completely valid way to write songs. It has the benefit of not committing to full chords too early in the melody writing process - a thing you sometimes want to do.

[@JonHarris77]

Major and Minor = big and small. Years of studying music theory, but I'd never heard that before. So simple and obvious!

[@xsfusionx]

There is a simple trick to know the opposite of an interval, the result of them combined has to add to nine, for example: The opposite of a 2nd is a 7th cause 2+7=9 The opposite of a 4th is a 5th cause 4+5=9 The opposite of a 6th is a 3rd etc. And the quality of the interval is just inverted, so a minor interval become major, an augmented become dimished. It's simple. (Sorry for my bad english btw).

[@nickbellinger1047]

i will have to watch it again but it explains a lot, thanks

[@procrast]

thank you, patreons 👊👊

[@Germs19]

I had a teacher who showed me that the inverted intervals always add up to nine and switch from major to minor or vice versa. So, as an example, Maj 3rd has an inverted interval of a min 6th (3+6=9).

[@cactustactics]

Oh nice, the major/minor = big/small just clicked a couple of things together for me! Like I knew it in one context, but in another I hadn't made that association. Thanks! Another thing that might help people is thinking about how the staff has a line or space for each letter class - so an interval is a certain number of steps up or down that ladder. And that can give you a visual picture of an interval - like a 2nd is the adjacent spot, a 3rd is two notes with a line or space between them, etc. The actual flavour of that interval (major/minor etc) depends on the key signature and how it sets up those letter classes by default (like the F in Gmajor is an F#), or any accidentals that are giving you lil temporary adjustments. And in most of your typical western music the scales are built off major 2nds with two minor 2nds in there, so if you can remember where those two are, you'll be able to tell if a jump is gonna be major (it includes one) or minor (it misses them). Not exactly perfect but you can develop a bit of an intuition to build on!

[@TheHesseJames]

And all that stuff is called differently in German and again differently in Spanish and then you also have the solmization system where the tonal center is always called "do" no matter what note it is.

[@cactustactics]

@@TheHesseJames as far as I know those don't change how the music is scored though? They're all coming from the same system - I mean people use solfege to practice sight reading!

[@TheHesseJames]

@@cactustactics In Flamenco guitar for example the chord names just stay the same, no matter where you put the capo. But then, this is not Western music anymore since the Flamenco scale has up to ten notes and on the other hand they call chords only by their letter even though they use tens of different ones depending on which color they like. Usually, they show you the chord and its name is simply "this one" :)

[@cactustactics]

@@TheHesseJames I think we're talking about different things here! I'm just pointing out how western sheet music notation (or whatever you want to call it - the staff) reflects that system of interval naming the video talks about, so you have a visual representation of "a third" or "a fifth", and you use other info to work out what kind of third that is But yeah, it works for movable do too because it all transposes easily, because intervals are all relative! It's a neat system

[@eutytoalba]

This just made me realize that one of the reasons Western music theory is so confusing is because it was probably invented before the whole concept of "zero" even entered mathematics. That must be why the "intervals" always start at one, counting the first note, instead of counting the space between two notes as the actual step-making "third interval" refer to only two gaps, etc. 😵‍💫

Not sure exactly about the historical origins, but you're right - a lot of musical concepts make more sense if you use zero-based indexing!

[@HarlanHarvey76]

Aspiring guitar players/ musicians - this lesson is an ABSOLUTE GOLDMINE. MASTER THIS AND YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT.

[@HarlanHarvey76]

The really important part is not only knowing what intervals are, but being able to locate them in your fretboard. You should play your scale and recite what interval you are playing. Then play your chords and recite each interval you are playing. I think Jake is laying out the old school fundamentals of intervals as they relate to the musical Staff and briefly talking about scale degrees. Knowing the interval locations on your fretboard is the goal for most guitar players. Not knowing how to read interval notation on sheet music (although that is a very valuable tool as well, just not as practical for the majority of guitar players) Just remember, Music Theory just explains what your ears already know. If it sounds good, it is good. If you need to explain it to others, or you need to write it down, or your ears need a little help hearing what's possible next - Music Theory will get the job done. Learn it. Know it. Use it.

[@TuckRob]

Hi Jake. I wonder if you could make a similar video on basic rhythm and timing relationships between notes. I'm a guitar player and I would say that I have a good enough understanding of harmony and it's application to be creative with it. I can happily come up with something that modulates outside diatonic harmony. I like to tab my muisc so I can remember it. I've gone from pen and paper to using Guitar Pro and this has highlighted the fact that I know very little about rhythm and note value. Solo guitar and guitar solos can incorporate so many different note values and relationships (ties etc) that something intuitive to play is seemingly complex to write. I would guess that I'm not alone on this amongst your subscribers and It would be great if you could make a video on a way into understanding various timings of notes across the bar.

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

yes! I have like 45 videos on this topic, in order, with tons of PDFS and practice tracks! It's my Rhythm Course on my site, and it's still name-your-own-price even though I honestly think it's worth $300. You have to check it out!!! And quickly before i start charging an actual price for it lol

[@TheHesseJames]

Pitch of a note is usually pretty clear unless you do bends on a guitar. Rhythm and time relations between beat and notes can get pretty difficult to note down so that a third person understands how the composer intended it to be played or that a software plays it back correctly. Rhythm is everything, baby, we are also talking about playing slightly of beat or note value.

[@Honestly__now]
