As someone who’s never taken a music class, played an instrument, nuthin, and just started learning the chords and melody to a song I liked on the piano, this was incredibly helpful in explaining the songs key change. Very clear to me despite having no prior music theory knowledge

[@WriteASong]

Thanks Alex, I'm glad the video helped you. Good luck with your piano playing!

Excellent video. Beautifully explained. Thanks.

[@ThomsenTower]

Thank you for another instructive video. One perhaps superficial bit of praise is that I always value your playing your examples long enough, including repetition, making it much easier to understand the lesson.

[@WriteASong]

Thanks, really appreciate the comment.

[@pompeiigray5603]

Hey great video! If you have a chance perhaps you could do a video on composing music in the octatonic mode???

[@WriteASong]

Thanks, I'll add it to my to-do list!

[@PatrizioDelliGatti]

[@istaphobe]

Where’s the part where I find out how to get a new key for my condo? I’ve been waiting for 13 GD minutes and I still have no idea how to change my keys out.

[@Stilwuf]

Tutorial actually starts roughly 3:15. Anything before that is just basic explanations

[@samirdrumz]

Your way of explaining is so clear. Thanks a lot for sharing the knowledge I really understand now some points I was struggling with. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@WriteASong]

Glad it was helpful!

[@RobertWadlow292]

I dont know why parallel modulation made me laugh a little. the change was so dramatic

[@Michael-sx5qh]

Same here 😂

[@BhajanVibes]

Thank you so much .. good video

[@WriteASong]

Thanks, glad it helped you!

[@jesseoliver3183]

This may seem like a dumb question but is it still considered a key change if you switch modes? So like if i was to play e phrygian and then switch into e locrian would that be considered a key change?

[@WriteASong]

Yes it would be with parallel modes, those with the same root note like the examples you gave. It can become a bit more complicated moving between relative modes, which use the same notes. For example, C major and A Aeolian use the same notes and therefore the same set of chords. A lot of it comes down to whether you have established a new tonal centre or if you are just briefly borrowing a chord or note. I hope that helps.

[@Garrettalbin-mg8bz]

@@jesseoliver3183 when using modes playing in a key it does not mean your changing the key you only change the key with the chords

[@iwoz]

What is that online app that you use to sequence the chords?

[@WriteASong]

It's called Hookpad. I did a video about it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6i0qYypi9WCp5Y

[@robertobonani8571]

All chords are in C major, sound more like avoiding the c for a while
