Thanks for this inspiring Video. You made advanced harmony theory easily approachable. This videos is worth watching multiple times.

Thanks for the video, Alex, it's me again ;-) I heard the "pattern" quite a few times in the past, when it comes to music. For me this term is far to abstract to be helpful with learning music or to make music without music theory. You connect "pattern" with the circle of fifths which is a good thing, especially when you APPLY it directly. The circle of thirds and this "one note moving" pattern sounds quite nice. I have an idea for a video which is certainly helpful for me and probably for others as well: In my music I "accidentally" (or intuitively) use specific practises, stylistic devices or however you wanna call it. It mean something like secondary dominants, pivot chords, pedal tones, harmonic planing, modal interchange. I know I use some of these techniques without beeing aware of them. But I WANT to be aware of it to dig deeper and fully understand their purposes. I know it is a broad term.

Hey Jens! It's also indeed important to understand what you're doing, but to me learning music is at least 80% about exploring the keyboard or whatever instrument you have. Learning about new existing systems can be beneficial, as they can create a spark (based on your personal interests) that will lead you somewhere, leading you to more exploring! I plan on doing more theory videos in the future, hopefully these will help! Thanks for watching again :)

Hello. It is a very interesting and great tutorial. one thing though, I wish you could display the music in Sheet notation which is better and faster to grasp. thank you. regards

Thanks for your comment! I understand, but I do have some viewers who don't read music. It's sometimes a difficult choice : should I just show the MIDI or just scores? Both can make the video longer which is not always what viewers want. But I'll try next time to include it!
