Great video, very clear, coherent and well paced, one of the best music theory channels out there for sure.

I definitely would like to in the future! I am certainly motivated to make the content it just takes me about a month or so to make one video 😅😅

Hadn't yet seen this approach to defining scales! Hadn't yet realized the Major scale had all the major intervals of the root, I just memorized it as Whole-Whole-Half-Whole-Whole-Whole-Half, focusing on each interval instead of the root note. It was helpful when starting up, and this new method I'm sure will help complement that one. Immediately had to look up which scale has all perfect intervals but also all minor ones, seems to be the Locrian mode? I was waiting for you to mention the Tritone later in the episode, and I'm quite curious why it was (I assume) saved for later. Thanks for the video, and looking forward to the next one! :D

@MusicTheoriesChannel Год назад

Great question! The whole-whole-half-etc. method is really popular, and tends to be the way most people initially learn their scales. However, learning it the way I've demonstrated here, with the intervals, is sort of more universal way of understanding the major scale, but also every other scale within music (as you pointed out here with Locrian mode). So, overall learning it that way gives a more solid foundation moving forward. I did go back and forth quite a bit on the tritone XD I wanted to avoid cramming too much info into one video, so I've decided I will do a separate one expanding on this topic! I appreciate you watching and commenting!!

Hi Music Theories, quick question... when you're showing the intervals from the root note C, you follow each note in order and call it minor 2nd to major 2nd to minor 3rd to major 3rd etc, but after the perfect fourth, which is the note F, you jump directly to G for the perfect fifth. Although you mention that G has indeed 7 half steps. Can you explain why F# isn't the perfect fifth and also what interval is F# in this case. Just started out music theory, loving the series so far. Thank you!

@MusicTheoriesChannel 2 месяца назад

Hi! Yes I can explain! The perfect 5th has to do with what's called the overtone series (I have a video on this if you haven't already seen it). The P5 is naturally consonant with its fundamental pitch, so when you play a 6 half step interval (F#) instead of the 7 half step interval (G), it actually sounds tense because its so close, but not quite right. This 6 half step interval is the #4, but more commonly known as the tritone or the #11 and is specifically used to create tension most of the time. It sits right in between the P4 and the P5 If you play C next to F# and then C next to G, you'll hear exactly what I'm talking about! I hope that makes sense. Thank you for watching!

@user-tm7hm2rw8g Год назад

Really enjoying your videos and finding them very helpful. However is there a reason you skip the 6th interval (about 6:20). You just jump from P4 to P5. Is there a name for this interval?

@MusicTheoriesChannel Год назад

Hi! Thank you so much for watching. That is a great question. That interval is called the tritone, augmented 4th, or diminished 5th. The reason I skipped it in this video is because it's not found in either major or natural minor, so I didn't want to complicate or overload with too much info! I hope that makes sense. I do mention it in some later episodes though!

@user-tm7hm2rw8g Год назад

@@MusicTheoriesChannel Thank you very much. That makes sense. I'll just have to keep watching then🙂

@Mike--K Месяц назад

@@MusicTheoriesChannel Thanks for explaining this, but it might have been better to mention it in the video. I am an absolute beginner and had to take a break watching this video to search the Internet for an explanation of the "minor 5th" and why it was missing here. However, I am learning, and retaining, more about music theory from your videos in the past few hours than I did from struggling through dozens of videos over the past few weeks.

So, are you saying that do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and si are not western music notes?

@MusicTheoriesChannel Год назад

They are definitely part of western music, however “Si” was replaced with “Ti” in the 19th century. Since, “Si” has been used as the solfège for the sharp version of “sol”
