How does someone without formal training and who cant read notes know all the music theory concepts, be it 3rds, fifths, type of chords and so on.

[@pjbpiano]

You don’t need formal training to know these things. They are all present on KZbin.

[@pranavjayaprakasanut]

​@@pjbpianohaha

[@thenoodleking]

You’d be surprised the amount of knowledge in churches. People don’t receive a formal training, but their practical knowledge and self expression will be world class.
