Hey everyone, good to be back! 5 years is way too long. Here's the link to the Chord Formulas Handbook: musiciansinspired.lpages.co/chord-formulas-handbook/ I have a lot of content ideas in the pipeline. Concepts I still don't see on UA-cam and concepts I think could be taught better. Expect more content coming your way!
Cause the classes made you do simple exercises that made you realise you didn't have a clue and were not intelligent enough to figure it out. This video leaves out that part so you feel delusional.
@isaacwest what? Im a long time drummer and ive been teaching myself guitar and keyboard. Those are simple enough and just by reading sheet music im able to play songs. Now that i want to make my own songs ive beenpaying more attention to the music breakdown videos i watch quite a lot only to realise half the stuff they say make no sense to me. This video perfectly teaches me how chords, intervals, scales and more work and from there i can learn more about chord progressions, feeling, and more with those same vids with the connection of how that feeling relates to chords and other things
This is absolutely astonishing. I've been at this for decades and this is the clearest and most comprehensive and succinct introduction to chords I've ever come across. In summary, it's an educational masterpiece. My compliments (and gratitude!) to the chef.
yes... I have been in and around this subject on UA-cam since late 2000s -- and I have been checking now and then - and this Guy has it all so comprehensively - giving away so much info for free is like GOD sent...ahahaha.. thanks brother...!!!
Where were you when I was an aspiring piano player with, what I know now, a bad teacher? I learned more about this in a 30min video than 3 years piano lessons.
This has got to be the most straight forward and comprehensive explanation for chords and their notation that's (relatively) friendly and understandable for new learners on the entire internet.
I just happened to stumble across your video.. I am a private teacher in my 56th year of teaching…yes I am passionate about teaching. I explain to my students everything you are showing in your video. And I create worksheets and videos to show this. Your video is much better looking than mine. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Ellie
This my second comment about this video because i NEED you ti understand just how DIFFERENTLY you have been able to put this all together with the CLEAREST MOST LOGICAL associations that has probably ever been written. Think about this: music books and textbook companies have FOR YEARS tried to accomplish what you have done here. Please dont discount this for exception because it is similar to how you were taught it. Maybe so but probably over months not in ONE HOUR! TRULY A SPECIAL METHOD. May you become wealthy for your contribution to society.
Can we take a moment to applaud this man for his meticulous teaching, he bodied decade long concepts in one video! thank you brother I appreciate your work
I have been playing piano for 11 years and I literally could never understand how this worked. I'm only 7 minutes into the video and I've learned more than I have about piano all year. Thank you so much for this😭!
I've watched soooo many videos, understood them, understood theory, have 2 years of music school and theory, school band, my own bands, 50+ concerts but man, this video gave me much more
Good morning! I have been study music chords for over 5 months and I failure to reach my goals. Today (3-16-24) I found your video (and thank you very much for the free handbook, it means a lot to me) and my music prospect has change from D to A. Thank you for you kindness attitude to share that knowledge. It help me a lot, you do not have idea. Now, I feel more confident to be a successful person in my classes goals. God bless you!
After spending several days streaming videos to learn about the basic piano system to help me progress, this is the best one. The instructor broke down the system progressively and incrementally built the learning based on the previous knowledge. You will find ease in listening and understanding without the need to stop the video and wonder about an unfamiliar term that suddenly pop up from the instructor which makes you go somewhere and search an answer. Apparently, that was what I did in other videos, not this one. Thank you very much!
I HAVE TO SAY... I PLAY KEYS ALREADY AND STILL FOUND SO MUCH REINFORCING KNOWLEDGE AND JOY FROM YOUR METHOD OF TEACHING. AMAZING VIDEO... GREAT JOB. ADAM IVORY.
He is a tasteful pianist as well as a clear and knowledgeable educator. A relief to find a genuine musician who actually knows what he's talking about and can present useful material rather than the often confused and mediocre material available.
I just want to say, "Thank You!!!!"...your knowledge of music theory and concepts, and your ability to easily present and explain them in a comprehensive manner, is, in my opinion, "unsurpassed". I mean, there are others out there that probably have equal to or similar knowledge of the subject matter and I'm sure a lot of us are familiar with them by name, and they're good people, however, I sincerely don't think any of them teach as well as you do. I've learned so much so quickly simply watching your video. I have referred so many people to this video, and they too by their own admission say they've learned so much so quickly. I not only have a solid grasp of Music theory and chord structure but I can literally apply it and I can play better and I can play pretty much any song on the piano.... And I've only been playing self-taught for about a year! Thank you again I look forward to more of your content.. 😂
Been learning piano for just over 4 years self taught mainly learning technique, theory and improvisation and composing. And I'm at that stage of taking my chords and theory to that next stage. This is awesome thanks.
let us have a moment of silence to appreciate this masterpiece ................................... cant thank you enough. i feel like sometimes we are not dumb. we just dont have someone who explains excellently!!!
I can't thank you enough for clarifying these foundational concepts that have been overly complicated by mostly everyone. You have made me gain more faith in myself and made me believe that I can actually do this, no words to explain how relieved I am right now. Thank you so so much.
This video is going to be THE legendary UA-cam lesson about chords for coming years. (And I can't explain how timely this video was for me) (Also, this was posted after a 5 year gap? wow)
Thanks for this. I've been trying to study music for decades and you are the 1st to go through the basics of intervals, the intervals up from the root and what they are called. It's a game changer for me! I finally get how jazz players talk about altered chords.
As a jazz musician, this is amazing! I would suggest making a part 2 to this video using some basic standards implementing your teachings, and also making a part 2 of how you can learn to comp using simple block chords and maybe teaching basic alternate voicing that a typical jazz pianist would use! Similar to your intro of "Someone to Watch Over Me"
I know how to play the piano reading notes and I play guitar with chords since the era of the Beatles but notes for classical pieces for guitar solo. Never had formal studies of music theories just what our mom taught us when were little, basic note reading. I wanted to learn how to play chords on the piano many lead pieces but never understood nor managed to play chords on the piano for a simpler way of playing a variation of any piece. I've seen so many videos and this is best , clear explanation and well illustrated that I have encountered right from the beginning of your video .❤ ❤❤❤🎉. Finally, I understood all those numbers. I've been wanting to play my compositions from my guitar to the piano. Thank you very much! You are indeed a great gifted teacher.
I watched this as a review, with a big smile on my face. Merci beaucoup. The only critique would be to talk about Thoroughbass. That's a system used since the Baroque period, and if it was good enough for Bach, it's good enough for moi. A triad root position is blank, first interval is a 6, a second interval is a 6/4. A seventh chord is a 7 in root position, first inversion is a 6/5, a second inversion a 4/3, a third inversion is a 4/2. Learning Thoroughbass really helped me to understand transposition. Also the British version (they always have to be different, n'est-ce pas?) uses A, B and C for the inversions.
FINALLY!!!! YOU are the FIRST theory Teacher, to have explained the meaning of “Sus chords” in a manner that made it CLEAR to my understanding. I never grasped the (mind/finger/eye/ear) pattern before now. YOU not only talked about it, but you demonstrated the process (slowly) together with filming the process, while you actually performed the actions. 💥 Thank you, Thank you, VERY MUCH!!!
Man... What can I say.. You really gave us a clear, grammatical projection of the piano theory. I am an absolute beginner and with this video I have all I need to learn with clarity and really metabolize all these intricate concepts. I huge thanks for you dedication and time spent for all of us. Absolutely sublime..
I’m not even halfway through the video (constant pausing, note taking, recap) but I just had to come here and say thank you so much for all the time and effort you put in to make this class. Literally shines through and the way you cover over everything has left me with ZERO questions so far!! Which is very helpful and amazing because usually I’m still left with so many questions with other videos haha. Very grateful for ya!
I think this is called instantantly falling in love with music...... im a little busy, so i play a few songs by hearing only with the melody, and for the cords, i will see youtube.... i have searched what a cord is, and how many types are out there? But no clear explanation..... this video is so good that i am watching it with full concentration..... before this, i thought to lay down and just sleep after watching enough youtube videos..😂..... finally gotacha man .....love you.... and can u pls do some videos on how to play the cords with the meoldy ...... it would be a great help for my improvement in music❤
This is by far the best, most concise and complete chord tutorial I have ever seen/heard in 44 years of playing guitar and keyboard by ear with only basic chords. I'm very happy to have found this and will watch it many times more. Thank you! Wonderful job.
I've checked a lot of videos on UA-cam because I really wanted to learn the piano so bad, and this is the best Chord lesson I've seen here on UA-cam! Thank you so much for sharing! 💯💯💖💖
Had a stroke in January starting to learn the piano from scratch, several reasons, firstly to play music eventually, secondly to get my left arm dexterity again and to get the brain working, loving this channel as it has clear instruction and enough meat on the bone to be challenging after all not everyone wants to play twinkle twinkle little star lol
Thank you for your work. Just through this video, I am playing simple pieces with chords and I am having a wonderful time. Thank you for your clarity in teaching. My piano teacher (who teaches at Mannes in NYC) said she has never seen someone learn chord playing so quickly. She was thrilled! I am inspired to continue practicing and look forward to learning with you more. Thank you!
I am a beginner in music, and would a test that you are a great teacher. Covered so much in a short time that I could read jargon that are difficult to understand. Truly greatiful.
Your way of explaining all of the keys chords and symbols is the easiest to understand. You did and excellent job! You made me feel like it was easier than I thought as you were patiently and effectively breaking it down. Thanks. Now that's what I call building the proper foundation in understanding the basics of the piano keys.
This has been the most informative, densely packed and useful content on music education ive consumed in probably 10 years. Respect you so much for teaching this in such a perfect manner.
wow that is a lot of work for free. I admit I watched the video and my brain feels like mush but a lot of it made sense with what I’ve seen through the years. I play guitar by ear for years always wanted to play piano the chords method I’ve downloaded the book and I’ll take it slow but thank you for all the effort.
This Is Literally The Most Helpful Video Ever, Holy Crap, Your Explanation Is So Good And Clear, And It's All So Compact And Organized So Well Without Any Confusion, Thank You So Much!!! ❤
I am a complete novice with the piano and music theory and I must say this video was so so so informative and helpful on my journey to becoming a pro ! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH !
Oh how i love people who take the time and effort to truly, THOROUGHLY teach others complicated concepts or subjects, without actually asking anything back....free good quality education is my shit
This is the music theory video I have been searching for. This puts together so many questions I have had and I cannot thank you enough for it. Easily the best video on this topic I have ever seen.
I'm so glad I found your video at the very beginning of my piano learning, I feel like in one hour I've learned so much that might otherwise have taken weeks or months. Thank you so much!
I haven’t watched all of this yet. Going to finish it tomorrow. But the first 10 minutes was absolutely fantastic. I’ve known about these concepts a long time but now I actually understand them. Thank you. I look forward to the rest of the video!
This is an amzing video, in every aspect. It shows that you are a perfectionist and I can‘t imagine how many takes and small adjustments you made to be happy with the result. Just wow.
Wow, I've learned so much in an hours time,. You indeed have the gift of summarizing complex terms and make them understand able to myself a beginner. The best I've seen so far.
Watched the thing, got the book. Learned a ton. I'm still a beginner, and chords always bothered me because I was trying to memorize them without understanding them. This is worth the watch even if you don't know how to play yet.
Fantastic Piano Lesson, Thanks a lot, no words to Praise and Appreciate your Remarkable Skills Dear Sir, you're Genius. All the Best and God of Wisdom bless you !..... 💫👍👍
What a phenomenal video! Thank you so much for all the effort put into this. It was much more comprehensive than I anticipated and really taught me a lot of things I was confused about for several years. ❤
The best piano tutorial in chord theory! Thank you I have been praying for a system or formula for understanding extended (7, 9, etc.), augmented, diminished, etc. Chords
I would probably need to watch a few times to digest all the content, but waouuu, this complex topic is covered with impressive clarity, both in speech and in visual material. That's top-notch teaching skills.
THE MOST important take away from this video for me is the walkdown, i used to think it's all about top most note to carry the melody but you made it easier for my little brain to comprehend.
This is the best video on you tube that too in just an hour all complicated chords are simplified in such a systematic way I am so so so happy to learn from you ! Excellent teachers create excellent students ❤ ! The teacher should have entire knowledge over all view the details clear concept and creative ways to teach things in more simplified way in s shirt time without missing details this is short video for such extensive complicated chords system and comment section is already appreciating you for your excellent knowledge and teaching way how you presenting things in a simplified way it's so complicated for me after learning piano for an total year you can say if you combine my all piano time over these three years as i don't practice everyday you can say six months to one year piano skill level of mine for this level it's the best video !
Although I've already learned most chords via memorisation, this tutorial really helped me improve my basics and understanding of chords. Thank you so much!
Hey everyone, good to be back! 5 years is way too long. Here's the link to the Chord Formulas Handbook:

Very well done!

Thank You very much!!!
When will the pipeline throw out its co tent, please?!?!
ähm, ... content!
Several music theory classes couldn’t get me to understand as clearly as this video. Great video
Cause the classes made you do simple exercises that made you realise you didn't have a clue and were not intelligent enough to figure it out.
This video leaves out that part so you feel delusional.

TOTALLY AGREE!
+1 brilliant presentation, the cleverest people are the ones who can present sometimes confusing concepts in an easy to understand manner.
yes... I have been in and around this subject on UA-cam since late 2000s -- and I have been checking now and then - and this Guy has it all so comprehensively - giving away so much info for free is like GOD sent...ahahaha.. thanks brother...!!!
I totally agree, this video is my reference for learning the chords 😊 well done!

This has got to be the most straight forward and comprehensive explanation for chords and their notation that's (relatively) friendly and understandable for new learners on the entire internet.
100% agree as someone learning this stuff, self taught. A lot to take in but certainly doable.
Ive been doing this for most of my life and I can honestly say, this channel is the absolute truth.
Awesome ❤

This is the most rewarding one hour i spent on UA-cam. The way you explain the theory is genius🎉
This is the truest, clearer, honest, simplest, detailed, compressed, and entertaining at the same time in one video. ❤
I watch it many times and i give my time for seeing the advertisement as i try to say thanks for ur hard work 😊

How can I like this video a thousand times? This teaching is mind-blowing 🎉.
This is the best video of the history of the learning fundamentals of music. I love you, greetins from Argentina!!!
Thank you so much - this has cleared up years of confusion!
I am a complete novice with the piano and music theory and I must say this video was so so so informative and helpful on my journey to becoming a pro ! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH !
This is the best and comprehensive video which covers from very basic to the very advanced. You won’t even need to watch any other video after this
This has to be the best video on all youtube about chords. Actually AMAZING! Cheers from Argentina!!
Thanks Matt...totally new to the piano. This will help more than anything else I have seen online to date.
i just went from having knowledge of up to thinking system #2 to each of the 7 in nearly an hour holy smokes this guy is good at teaching
This video is gold, I went through 8 years of classic piano without knowing how to read chord symbols beyond the the simple triad system
Oh how i love people who take the time and effort to truly, THOROUGHLY teach others complicated concepts or subjects, without actually asking anything back....free good quality education is my shit
I’ve spent t 30 years playing guitar. Today I finally leaned what the stuff I’ve been reading means.
This is easily the most epic music learning videos Ive found on youtube. Kudos to you bruv. That was cleanly explained.
Respect for this guy for making the handbook free for everyone❤️
In just the first six and a half minutes I learned so much to help me start. Thank you for such a thorough video. I'm looking forward to finishing it.
I am soooo grateful I stumbled across your video! THISSSS was clear and concise teaching! Please know you are so appreciated!!!!!!
This is the music theory video I have been searching for. This puts together so many questions I have had and I cannot thank you enough for it. Easily the best video on this topic I have ever seen.
This is the most clear anyone has ever explained chords THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for making this absolute gem of a video, clear to understand and for free accessible to anyone.
Best breakdown Ive seen so far compared to any other UA-cam video on piano chords
I'm so glad I found your video at the very beginning of my piano learning, I feel like in one hour I've learned so much that might otherwise have taken weeks or months. Thank you so much!
Genius is making the complex simple. Very easy to follow. Thankyou!
probably the best online class so far, I'm learning step by step!
I haven’t watched all of this yet. Going to finish it tomorrow. But the first 10 minutes was absolutely fantastic. I’ve known about these concepts a long time but now I actually understand them. Thank you. I look forward to the rest of the video!
God bless you for sharing this knowledge to the world for free
This is an amzing video, in every aspect. It shows that you are a perfectionist and I can‘t imagine how many takes and small adjustments you made to be happy with the result. Just wow.
Wow, I've learned so much in an hours time,. You indeed have the gift of summarizing complex terms and make them understand able to myself a beginner. The best I've seen so far.
From India 🇮🇳 Wow nice and also. The chord formula notes is too much helpful thank you sir❤.
Watched the thing, got the book. Learned a ton. I'm still a beginner, and chords always bothered me because I was trying to memorize them without understanding them. This is worth the watch even if you don't know how to play yet.
Lowkey the best video to learn music theory
This video was legendary. I learned a ton!!!
Fantastic Piano Lesson, Thanks a lot, no words to Praise and Appreciate your Remarkable Skills Dear Sir, you're Genius. All the Best and God of Wisdom bless you !..... 💫👍👍
What a phenomenal video! Thank you so much for all the effort put into this. It was much more comprehensive than I anticipated and really taught me a lot of things I was confused about for several years. ❤
Omg thank you so much for these formulas. Understand how these chords were formulated helps a great deal, rather than straight memorization.
The best piano tutorial in chord theory! Thank you I have been praying for a system or formula for understanding extended (7, 9, etc.), augmented, diminished, etc. Chords
This is so far the best music theory I’ve ever had keep it up plz❤

This is the clearest explanation I've ever heard. Minor nitpick: I wish you would use the flat symbol instead of a 'b'.
The most logical, sensible video I’ve seen on this topic. I leave enlightened. Thank you!

I would probably need to watch a few times to digest all the content, but waouuu, this complex topic is covered with impressive clarity, both in speech and in visual material. That's top-notch teaching skills.
THE MOST important take away from this video for me is the walkdown, i used to think it's all about top most note to carry the melody but you made it easier for my little brain to comprehend.
