I have to say that I've watched many videos on the topic and have tried to understand this topic I was recommended by the algorithm your video and now i finally understand it and this is honestly the first time I'm starting to internalize it with clarity thank you so much for this amazing explanation video.

[@ChaseMaddox]

Really appreciate you saying that, Joseph! I’m so glad it helped you 🙏

Yessir! Simple and effective 🙌

You already know!

[@ronlee2606]

This is a great way tio think of the circle of 5ths. Thanks!

[@ChaseMaddox]

Glad it was helpful! 🙏

[@AntonBoichev]

Thank you very much for this instructive lesson. It's an elegant, straightforward, and useful tool.

[@ChaseMaddox]

You're very welcome! 👍

[@jfar3340]

amazing lessons. Also locating the 5th using interval ''shapes'' on the fretboard instead of counting can be helpful (or just knowing 5th by heart of course, they re a main chord tone and any jazz player should know them by heart by osmosis after a while)

[@ChaseMaddox]

Great point! That’s actually my preferred way to learn intervals on guitar 👍

[@hycus4292]

Chase, how it works on the minor keys ?

[@MixolydianMode]

What is a use case for this circle? You can use the scale and just move it around?

[@ChaseMaddox]

A few different uses for the visualization of the circle are to see the relationships between all 12 keys and for seeing progressions/scales of a certain key. Those are good reasons to learn it as a circle, but I see many students get caught up in that process with too much information and unable to first get the number of sharps/flats for each key.

[@MixolydianMode]

Thx, so keys with a similar amount of sharps or flats go better together, i guess.@@ChaseMaddox

[@jfar3340]

@@MixolydianMode ? sorry what do you mean. Youre name implies that you like music theory tho! Cheers

[@MixolydianMode]

I mean that for example a modulation from c Major to g major will sound easier to the ear because the difference is just one accidental F#. One note difference in the scale. Those two keys sound similar. A modulation from c Major to F# major will be harder to do or more drastic.@@jfar3340
