Gracie is an exceptional teacher. The pace of her progression, degree of repetition, and examples provided are just perfect!
could you do a titorial on modes?
You read my mind 😀
I’ve been playing bass since I was 14. I’m now 56. I’ve had no formal music training. Gracie has a fantastic way of simplifying and explaining music theory. It’s used to be over my head. I’ve finally found someone whom I understand and can follow.
Thank you so much.
Gracie, this is solid gold, beginning at about four minutes 30 seconds. Thank you so so much.
Best music teacher on the planet!
Aw thanks so much!! :)
Yes i think so .. 👏👏🤣
I agree!
By a mile
That's an understatement
Saying she's the best on the planet is like saying the ocean is moist
Thank you! It seems as if every other theory teacher starts with the assumption you have a doctorate in music theory. You teach clearly and succinctly, in digestible and understandable terms. You are doing a great service, and it is most appreciated. Thanks again!
I love the way you grind out examples for over 20 minutes in this video! You make the subject material far more accessible, thank you.
Thank you so much! Your comment made me so happy to read. I even read it to my husband because it made me so happy to hear you appreciate the grinding out of examples. :)
Just want to echo the other comments: for the first time in forty years music theory starts making sense to me. You are indeed an amazing teacher!
One of the greatest teachers I have come across. So good I have no words to say what I want to say. Beyond excellent.
Wow what a nice thing to say!!! Made my day!
I'm loving music theory more then ever, she really has changed how to break down and grasp chords structure in a very simplified way! Makes total sense, thanks Gracie!
Dearest Gracie ...
My favorite musician and theory instructor has a new video ... God has smiled upon me !!!
You are so very talented and beautiful, I look forward to every video you put out. Your singing is absolutely hypnotic,
OMG I could listen to you sing eternally my dear :) You teach in such a clear and concise way I'm always learning so much from you! Your talent for teaching is bringing light into this world of darkness. Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work,
I've never looked forward to my music studies so much in my life, part of it is because I have a crush on my teacher *flirts lol
Seriously - you ROCK Gracie !
VERY Sincerely,
~ Michael your #1 fan
Awww michael you are the best! Thank you so much :)
Amen!
10:56 Your baby step of excluding the Roman Numerals is the mark of an excellent teacher to remove props at a manageable rate.
Gracie, I'm a guitar teacher and yours are really the best music theory videos I have ever found on the Internet. Absolutely fantastic. You have a lovely way with you. Super teacher. Keep these videos coming please!!!!
I HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOUR LESSONS FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. I DO NOT KNOW HOW I STUMBLED ACROSS YOUR TEACHING METHOD. I AM A YOU TUBE PREMIUM SUBSCIBER AND DO NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH ADS. PLUS I HAVE BEEN SAVING ALL YOUR LESSONS ON A SPEACIAL PLAYLIST ON MY COMPUTER. AS I WATCH THEM I WILL LET YOU KNOW. I TALKING ABOUT REALLY PAYING AENTION. I REALLY LIKE YOUR ENERGY WHEN YOU TEACH AND LOVE WHEN YOU SAY LETS DO ONE MORE AND COOL....
Hahaha "let's do one more" and "cool" are two things I say a lotttttt hahaha. Thank you so much for your nice comment!
Another useful lesson for the music theory enthusiast from a gracious teacher. This old dog is barking some new tricks!
Gracie. I am a 36 medical professional who just decided to take up the piano because I wanted to do something NON SCIENCE related for relaxation. Your videos are phenomenal. The material is presented in a thorough way but you have such a soft reassuring way about you. I love your little side notes in the videos … I’m one of those people that would rather be over explained to them under explained. There were several moments I was wondering … Hmm I wonder if .. and then you usually are like Side Note: XYZ. Great JOB. Keep up the great work with your awesome contributions to the world.
Best music teacher in the Universe❤
You are so clear and helpful. I wish I'd had a teacher like you in high-school.
Thank you! 😃
Just want to say thanks. I've been playing music for my whole life but never had a good grasp on theory. Watched many people talk about it but couldn't get it. I watched your circle of fifths video (probably the 20th one I've seen thru the years) and you made it make sense. Keep up the great work you need a teacher of the year trophy!!!
How about teacher of the millenium ? Hmmm what kinda trophy would that be ?
Couldnt agree more. In the same boat.. theory is making sense in my mind faster than it ever has!
I’ve been playing for a long period of time without a good grasp of on a theory! She’s a natural born teacher! I’m so lucky I have her as a teacher!
I have been playing my guitar for a while without knowing things you are teaching, you are a good teacher kipitup
This lesson really got newbie like me (who doesn't know anything about music theory) to understand in a very simple, easy and fast way. I can't thank you enough for this free lesson.
Gracie, don't tell all my guitar playing brothers out there, but, the reason I watch and, ultimately learn from your theory videos is because you don't try to show me hiw good you can play while your teaching. Appr3ciate it.
Hahahahaha I won't tell :P
One of the many reasons I love her channel also !
That and I have a crush on my music teacher :op)
@@GracieTerzian I assume that the reason the I, ii, iii, IV, V, vi, vii^0 chord progression "sounds" similar to the diatonic key is is derived from is due the chord sound like the root note it's made of? That is, there is a kind of interval formula for the chord progression that "resembles" the diatonic key it is derived from?
@@GracieTerzian Too late I spilled the beans on Him.
At last, music theory which actually makes sense, I want more of these tutorials.
I will be making lots more! :)
Like others I have been playing music all of my life. Your videos are so clear and concise on the fundamentals that I missed along the way. Thank you so much.
Your teaching style with the white board is exceptional..
Great stuff. I’m 74 and in covid lockdown a lot with a frail partner. Your teaching is terrific. WishI had this year’s ago. Thank you.
You’re so easy to learn from
Thanks so much! I’m so glad to hear that!
Yes, you know it. My fave instructor that I've ever had the pleasure of taking lessons from !
Hi Gracie, I have been playing guitar for over 40 years. I am self taught without any formal training. Over the years I have been playing catch up with all the theory I can. I wanted to take the time to thank you for putting this information out there. You do an excellent job of teaching and you make things very easy to understand. You are awesome!
Actually blew my mind with the circle of fifths trick
I used to run scared - shy - completely, away from music theory. Not any more. Brilliant teaching
Absolutely brilliant lessons. I've been playing bass for years, and never could crack theory in a meaningful way. Today watching these videos I've learned more about it than in the last 20 years. It just makes sense - everyone, myself included, just needs the right teacher.
Aww I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you so much for letting me know in this nice comment. I’m so glad you learned something!!
@@GracieTerzian I chuckle @ 27:00 "thank God..." I do count My blessings-I have to latch on to the reliable EZ stuff & work from there.
Finally music theory explained in a way that I can understand. Thanks again Gracie
between you and Tomo Fujita, I have drastically improved my ham and egger guitar playing
You truly sing like like an angel and your lessons are perfect
I cant afford music lessons and you are kind enough to share invaluable knowledge
As i have said before . I have been playing for forty five years and never knew how any of this worked but each time you post a video i can glean great amounts of theory
Thank you
Jb
I see this comment often on here but so far you are the best music teacher I've seen anywhere. Been struggling with theory for a long time. You're made it all clear and intuitive. Thank you so much!
Aww it never gets old to hear. Thanks so much for letting me know! And I’m so happy I’ve helped you clear things up! ❤️❤️ thank you.
Cant believe how many lightbulb moments i have had watching your videos thank you
I thought you were just an excellent teacher, but wow, you got such a great voice!
Thank you so much!!
I have played the violin for 25 years, and you are the first one who made all the musical terms connected in such a tidy way which really helps me to build up my understanding from the basics, I will keep watching the contents in this playlist, and thank you so much for your work Gracie, deeply appreciate it!
Also, so stunned by your singing, incredible voice pairing delicate vocal techniques! I can listen to it all day long😍
Thank you so much Ted! You are so nice!
Gracie, I learned to play music in a very small town many years ago. Either I was a horrible student or I had horrible teachers or both. However, I have learned more from you in a couple of videos than I ever did in school. You explain everything in such a logical way that it is impossible not to understand. Thank you for your clear instruction and methods of application. :)
Brilliant instructor. Music theory made simple for dummies. Delivery is so awesome. The music theory that I had been taught is the "Dinosaur" age. No wonder students would rush to nearest exit after first lesson!. Really.
I am so shocked at how easy Gracie makes understanding these concepts. I have studied theory in college and have seriously struggled b/c my ADHD and Dyslexia take over...this is so simple. I am super grateful. What an answer to prayer!! I will be showing these videos to my daughter as she learns theory in college as well. I could never have learned this without you Gracie...
that as so good, I learned so much with this one post, the more I learn the less I know, I'm giving you two thumbs up
This is the case of an outstanding teacher and a talented artist in the same person.
Aw you are so kind! Thank you so much :) You made my day
Agree with the best music teacher ever comment. I have been playing for years and years. Gracie Terzian has unlocked so much for me and I am so greatful! It also doesn't hurt that she is a babe, helps with my short attention span lol! Way to go Mrs. Terzian! She puts so much into her video and even if you miss a little bit she goes through so many redundancies to teach! #perfect
Thank you so much!!!! Your comment made me very happy to read :)
Every video I learn something that I could not grasp the day before.
I’m grateful.
Hi Gracie, The way you communicate simplifies all the theory so well, so we can retain it using simple models. I’ve been playing Guitar for 30 years, all self taught and knew this stuff but would get muddled up. You have an amazing talent to communicate things so simply.ThankYou.
Great lesson! Completely explains the topic. Easy to understand because of your patient, pragmatic teaching approach. Well done. Thanks for all your efforts and enthusiasm!
Thanks so much Craig! I appreciate it :)
Gracie is the best teacher going!
Thank you for this outstanding breakdown and explanation of diatonic chords. It really helped to show me and help me to easily grasp what diatonic chords are and how they’re related. I’ve heard musicians talk about these different cords, but now I see how the minor chords are family to a particular key. Your drawings are very simple, clear and easy to understand and enable me to visualize what you’re saying.
I will definitely be interested in practice exercise videos if you have not already done those .
I have always found music theory difficult and confusing. Now, however, thanks to your video series, I'm actually beginning to understand some of it! Thank you.
Absolutely THE very best. I am seeing the light after sooo long!
5:51 "I don't know if these are the words" metered perfectly 😀
Have canceled all my other guitar patreon memberships and just going to stick with Gracie now. She is that good and what a lovely soul I am sure she is
So helpful Gracie. Here’s a cross section of I, vi, ii, V songs:
All I Have To Do Is Dream, Everly Bros
Chain Gang , Sam Cooke
D’yer Maker, Led Zeppelin
More Than a Feeling, Boston
Baby, Justin Bieber
She is a very good tutor for sure. I know a fair amount of music theory but I must say I started to break the rules almost right away when I was a rock guitarist. The whole idea was NOT to always follow the rules, and catch cliches before they became song parts. But actually Gracie is explaining the “Western” way of musical systems so that you have at least a template for having a song written pleasing to “Western” ways. Just one more thing, I’ll be gone; many great musicians would try to recreate sounds in nature, even industrial noises., or WW 2 sounds. Anything you hear is a note or whatever.
Thanks a lot Robert for the songs with I vi ii V
i have been trying to understand music for a long time, you have taught me more in 35 minutes but in the 57 years of playing guitar and 10 years of piano. thank you you are an excellent teacher. looking forward to many more videos
The Chipmunk Lady, the circle of fifths, cooler than popsickles. 🤪 Thank you Gracie for another good video. Simply fascinating. 🎶 🎵 🎶
I can't believe how free these are
I've tried several times to grasp music theory. and just gave up. It's incredible how you uncomplicate these principles so skillfully. I just started playing the cello and your presentations will make my journey so much easier. You have my vote for music teacher of the century!
Wow what a nice thing to say!! Thank you so very much Rick!
You have a gift Gracie, I'm compelled to listen to you ,love your work.
She's a multi-talented gift from God :o)
You Are Making My Process With Music Theory a Way Better. , Thanks to you, I get to understand more. NOT IMPORTANT: but I just want to say THANK YOU.
I’m so glad to hear that!!!! Thank you :)
I love what everyone has said about your teaching style--uncomplicated, lots of illustrations and thorough! Plus your singing voice is beautiful!
Aw thanks so much! I really appreciate it!
Thanks, Gracie. You teach so an elementary-age child could understand. Most other video presenters of music theory seem to teach at a university level. After watching your videos three or four times, I am learning this material. I have no music background at all.
Wow that's so awesome to hear. Thank you so much, David! I'm so glad you like the videos. I really appreciate this nice comment!
THIS LADY IS A GREAT TEACHER!!!!!
Learning music theory at 61....Thanks Gracie, you make it easy to learn
I'm reviewing and I love the way you teach and how diligent you are to explain. Also, although I like your natural voice, here 12:17, here 13:35, here 16:49 and here 32:17, I had a lot of fun, I loved that you edited the video with that voice acceleration, it sounds great on you. I discovered that I also like that little voice. If you keep using it I will enjoy it in future videos ... Thanks Gracie Terzian
Haha I'm glad you enjoyed it the high voice! :) :) :) Thank you so much!!
@@GracieTerzian Alberto is not alone!
Best teacher on the planet and the second best one too ... ;)).
You make learning music theory fun, and simple !! :))
Thank you so much Terry :). You are very kind
Best in the multiverse
This lady is awesome. What a blessing!!!
Thank you so much I've been learning for 4 years and even my teacher isn't as detailed and as simplified as you break it down. I'm very grateful.
Yes! Practice Drills. Like tricks on spelling chords with the extensions.
Your teaching is PERFECT I could understand it clearly. Thankyou.
Glad to hear that!
SO easy to follow the devil's in a panic and started a discount scheme on musical skills !! The work sheet idea sounds good if you can write them out as easy to understand as you explain them yourself , one thing I thought , maybe for videos a few examples of what youre explaining on keyboard , for people like me having the sounds , specially the differences in the sounds gives so much context ! Keep up the great work, looking forward to the next one !
Hahaha that first sentence might be the best quote I’ve ever heard! Thanks so much! Yes that’s a good idea. I’ll try to start doing more listening examples.
@@GracieTerzian Glad you liked it :D And wow, maybe even taking my advice , even a little bit ? Im must be having a good day, think I'll go buy a lotto ticket :O :P
the GOAT of music teaching,,,ty ...pls have a lesson about modes, ty
Your theory of music is off the chart. You have open up my eyes. Thank you.
The chord pattern with the circle of fifths and fourths was so awesome. Your videos have helped me to appreciate and love music theory..I am loving those aha moments that happen.. Thanks so very much.
That's what I like to hear! That is so awesome. I'm so happy to hear this :)
You keep it simple, that's really good. In aviation we use KISS rule. Keep It Straight & Simple.
Another KISS rule. Keep it simple stupid.
diatonic chords for minor keys harmonic and melodic keys too please???? definitely best teacher of theory music I know
Outstanding job.
After 60 yrs I’ve finally... oh wait, I already said that. What is this strange magic you’re using here?
Brilliant! I’ve had such a hard time with all this! Your explanation is gold! THANK YOU!
It is a plus that she is so lovely but I think she is the best theory instructor on the internet plain and simple.
Aw thanks so much!! :)
By far the best video on chords I have yet seen. And I've looked at a lot! Comprehensive, helpful, clear. But I repeat myself. Simply the best. Thanks.
I know you put up a disclaimer, but I really liked it that you went through every major key. Very helpful.
Good refresher for people that have been playing for a while, excellent explanation for beginners! I forgot about the pattern in the circle of 5ths. Thank you 👏
Amazing! I love this lesson. It is so easy to understand with you as teacher
Happy to hear that! Thanks so much :)
Thanks Gracie... you're an exceptional teacher with the patience if Job!
Now I understand the 1-6-2-5 thing!!!! Thanks!!
This is good , your teaching skills is on point , definitely gifted , thank you girl ..God bless you 🙏 ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for making this video. This is EXACTLY what I was looking for today! Your teaching is so perfect and easy to understand. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you 😊
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful!
Gracie my best music teacher. I love u
Thank you! 😊
Gracie, Grabie, Gracie! I find it so difficult to concentrate on the board when you face the camera, you are lovely and so generous, thank you so much. I found you because of my grandma, whose name was also Gracie. She's gone now, but lived just afew months shy of a hundred years, love and still miss her and will always. Seriously, your instructions make music much clearer for me, but I won't call you Shirley, 😂( it's from the movie 'Airplane' in case you haven't watched it before, sorry for rambling on, again thanks so much.
Pretty cool lesson. I remember when I was young jamming with a guy that loved to call out a "ii-V of the ii-V". Got a crash-course in following changes during those sessions.
Keep up the good work. Killer voice as usual.
MK
Haha I love it! Thanks so much MK :)
Learning is never boring and you are great as a teacher!
Thank you so much!
YES! Keep up the great work gorgeous!
Knocked it out of the park again-thank you!
thank you so much!
“ Early rock n roll (specifically The genre of ‘Doo-wop’) was a major culprit of (1-6-4-5).”
Totally!
The Best fantastic
Thank you!
Gracie. You have first class teaching skills but when I heard you sing it totally blew me away!
OMG, I have been looking at this stuff for ages without ever really understanding what was going on. Thank you so much, this now makes much more sense. Your a legend.
Oh have to take a break too much info...how to know the major scales ? By memory? In order to move forward?
Haha information overload!!! It's good to take breaks and not overwhelm yourself.
So, ultimately yes, you want to have your major scales memorized. This takes time and lots of repetition. HOWEVER, you don't need to memorize every single major scale at once. You can start with just one or two major scales. Start with the easier ones like C major, F major, or G major. Then move on to D major and A major. etc...
Don't let the feeling of "oh goodness, how will I ever memorize all of these?" overwhelm you. I remember feeling that way when I first started learning music. First off, you don't need to have every major scale memorized at first to play. You can first spend time playing music in simpler keys such as C major, F major, G major, D major, A major, etc. There is no need to be playing a song in a crazy key like C# major or Cb major when you first begin working on this stuff. But I do believe that having a grasp of your major scales/keys will really make a lot of other things in music theory begin to make more sense. It's the foundation for so much.
In order to figure out the notes in a major scale, you can always google search what they are (hahaha), or you can count up in whole and half steps in the pattern WWHWWWH. OR you can start figuring out the notes in major scales using the circle of fifths which is what I recommend using. That is what helped me begin to memorize my major scales. For instance, if you can't remember what the sharps and flats are in the scale, you can draw out the circle of fifths (or even better: try to visualize it in your head by memory) and figure out what the sharps and flats are in the scale. I have a video about how to create the circle of 5ths that you can check out in my music theory video playlist. I hope this helps!!
@@GracieTerzian AWESOME INFORMATION!!!! Again, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!🙏🙏🙏. *Your “CIRCLE OF FIFTHS” Video was my 1st Video to watch on UA-cam - it was EXCELLENT!!! *Will try to MEMORIZE😍
I have just started watching your videos your an amazing teacher thank you so much. I am nearly 55 years old and started taking guitar lessons about a year ago I have never been musical and I am finding your videos so helpful thank you Claire
You blew my mind with the circle of fifth pattern! Thank you a lot!
Wonderful!
Gracie "Pretty cool right ? "
Me ' Beyond cool Gracie "
Thank you for sharing your hard work 😘
I cannot thank you enough! You make everything so clear and you have a beautiful voice.
