@josephbrandenburg4373 7 лет назад

Augusto I don't think that's true. Pop music uses a lot of seventh chords and other extended chords. Maybe there aren't a lot of chromatic tones, but there are loads of sevenths and ninths.

@GeorgeSPAMTindle 6 лет назад

Yet another short video from Mr Beato that ends up taking an hour to watch because I keep stopping it, take a few notes, then go back to watch it again and see if I understand it better after taking notes. Change a few notes after reviewing a section that I took the notes for, then review it again. When will I learn that this always happens!!? Rick Beato should be classified as a drug, and I am hopelessly addicted. Unlike most other drugs that I have tried each hit from Mr Beato just gives me a bigger rush than the previous hits have done. Cold Turkey is not an option, the only solution is more practice.

@389293912 3 года назад

Personally, I consider surprise to be very, very important to make sure the music isn't boring or cliche. So I really like to put deceptive moves in there, maybe even two in a row, before finally giving the listener satisfaction. The biggest problem with pop music nowdays is "no surprises" in the chords. Your composition, as a theme for a movie sound track, is better than most I've actually heard. It might just need a pinch more recognizable melody if you want to take home an Oscar, but even as it is, it's quite good.

@chuckstewartmusic157 7 лет назад

Rick, this is awesome. I write, starting from the feeling. I can feel an emotion but also sometimes write something that has an emotion I'm not feeling, per se. Such things may be needed for music for film, shows, etc., to be able to write in an emotion required in a scene. You have added so much to what I try to do and I appreciate it very very much, that you take the time to share and to care. All that being said, it is incomprehensible that anyone would "down vote" this. True, people allegedly have a right to an opinion but I would seriously place the "downvoters" of this specific video into a category of anti-social (or simply evil) personalities, to have not been grateful for the gift you have given in this video. Thank you for all you share.

I love that it’s “emotion” and not something specific, there are sooo many distinct ways to use dissonance. Besides the beautiful Major 7 or Minor 9 chords, up the distortion and just play an open power chord interspersed with a high range minor second on syncopated off beats? That’s half of all metal break downs

@hockeyshot999 3 года назад

I don’t have extensive knowledge about music. But I’ve learned over years that my music preferences always heavily gravitate towards emotion (preferably in minor keys) via dissonance & resolution. I’ve been trying to identify what component my ear liked to hear and why... this video clarified a lot of things for me!! I’ve been trying to understand music on a deeper level and this has started to help me achieve that! Thank you so much for making this video!! Wanting to also understand accidentals better and if this correlates at all with this video!

@hockeyshot999 3 года назад

I’ve also noticed that I appreciate a lot of Spanish & French music because in my opinion, they like to use these kinds of techniques! One great example is the song “XY” by Vitaa & Slimane. I’d love to sit down and speak to someone who has an extensive knowledge in music...it’s just so intriguing to me!!

@bartscrivener4634 7 лет назад

Nice, Rico. Simple, sweet, and honest. I've often wondered if the truly great composers of the world reach a point where technical wizardry is bypassed or becomes so instinctual that the soul can feel whatever it wants, and the composer simply becomes the "messenger." To me, Shostakovich was the greatest emotional composer I've ever known. I've never heard a composer that can MAKE ME fall to my knees weeping for no other reason than the sound of his music. Symphony #10 first movement gets me every time. It's those damn violas. Anyway, keep on teachin', Rico, I love it !! AND I do not EVER take what you are doing for granted. Thankyou and your family for allowing us into your home and your lives. Hey Dylan !!!!!

@clydechurch7428 2 года назад

I love you do, you’re a real hero for explaining this to everyone. I feel like the theory you explain really breaks the vail of the common progressions you hear over and over on the radio. Sometimes, I wonder if a hit is just a hit because of how familiar the audience is with the progression, the creation of dissonance and it’s resolution. Still a novice- barely have the circle memorized and still use my fingers to count. Hopefully one day I’ll learn for sure.

@StratMatt777 5 лет назад

If all the other RU-vid channels were deleted that would prevent me from wasting time watching garbage videos when I should be watching yours. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely. I never knew that scale degree 4 had more tension than scale degree 5 and that is was so similar to the tension that degree 7 has due to it's half-step. Also the "V 7 wanting to "expand" to its tonic resolution" made me say "oh" out loud. I watched 00:45 4 times, watching your right hand... and it clicked. Cool. You are opening my mind to new possibilities and understandings, building on the knowledge foundation I learned in community college music theory classes... which, until this moment, have been 99% useless to me when it comes to application (aside from chord theory). Thank you.

@MrShyguyRS 5 лет назад

I personally think dissonance is only one way to create emotion. The first theme of Anton Arensky's Piano Trio No. 1 in d minor does an amazing job of creating emotional content through only an arpeggio. When it's repeated in the finale, I always cry because - despite the lack of dissonance - it demonstrates so much longing and sorrow. A big part of that is rhythmic content.

@tombelinas 3 года назад

Brilliant. Thanks Rick. Why has it taken me 30 years to discover this!

@dwindleberry4592 4 года назад

I think the best example I can think of is a piece from the Dark Souls game called Gwyn, Lord of Cinder. It's super emotional and all played with the white keys.

@christiansmakingmusic777 7 месяцев назад

Repition with development and relative consonance/dissonance, as well as development of intensity throughout a song. There has to be a balance of predictability and a sense of surprise. Once the mind attaches meaning to something (especially lyrics) coming back to the chorus can smack the emotion button hard. Recently I was trying to figure out why “No One is To Blames” by Howard Jones always brings me to the edge of tears. But I understand the song in the context of a gentle summer day when I was coming of age and started having crushes. It always felt just like that. The best way to move towards all that is write. Study yes, but write your own stuff and keep doing it. If it takes five hundred a thousand songs, it will be well worth it.

Fuck this was an epiphany. I randomly watched the video Bobby McFerrin demonstrates the power of the pentatonic scale where he steps right and left and first and voices his positions with a maj2nd interval and then skips to places he hasnt skipped, wanting the audience to complete the rest and it turns out to be a pentatonic scale. It includes the 123 and 56 of the maj scale. This video showing how 4 wants to resolve to 3 and 7 wants to resolve to 1 just completed the picture. Thanks man
