I would like to thank everyone who has left encouraging comments about this video, i am honored to have been involved and I’d also like to thank Adam for being so generous with his platform. I’d also like to thank all the other fantastic teachers who created and shared their videos and presented their teaching so clearly and soulfully.
Tim, I have watched your section, probably, 10 times. This has been the best learning video I could have watched at this time in my own playing development. Thank you so much for sharing!
Soo much great material here.. literally years of practice. I like that it’s more “musical approach “ than “practice” because most of it is so transferable directly to song. The cycle of 6ths is Awesome 🤯. Thank you Adam.. and everybody ! ❤
What a great idea. Combining all these concepts in one video. Triads, their importance in all their iderations can't be overstated. Thanks to Adam and thanks to all the other contributors.
My hats off to Molly and Grant. As a beginner guitarist whos been beginning for 50 years, I was able to understand their brilliant approach. The others were beyond my feable comprehension, so I will have to revisit in a decade to get to that level.
What a great idea and so beautifully executed. Several facets of such a basic concept articulated so well. Thanks, Adam, and to everyone who participated...oj
The title does not deceive! Triad awareness has really improved my playing. Your video has given us several cool approaches to work through and for that I say thank you Mr. Levy!
I was teaching about the power of triads way back in the early 90s. I wrote it all down and self-published my book PlaneTalk. When I first got on the Internet nobody was talking about triads it was all scales, modes, boxes, pentatonics. It's nice to see that players are finding out more from all these great teachers. Killed my business though,
Hey Kirk! I loved your book..someone gave me a copy and it helped me understand so many theory concepts...I lent it...and lost it, as you do! Is i t still available? And what are you doing now if I may ask?
The main 4 triads are: major (135), minor (1-b3-5), augmented (1-3-#5) and diminished (1-b3-b5). There are 3 inversions that you should know: 135-351-513 (for all 4 types). Know them on string sets 654-543-432-321. - That’s 48 triads (4x3x4=48).-
Yet only 36 shapes. The shapes for string sets 6-5-4 and 5-4-3 are the same; so only 9 shapes per triad type. It's only when you get to the 2nd string that the shapes change.
wow what an awesome post. Thank you, Adam, for putting this together. Great nuggets in here from the different players, and I enjoyed getting exposed to some teachers that I wasn't aware of.
@@tiesergrote Tim Lerch's cycle of 6th is really very interesting. With the right context, the cycle could be seen as vi-ii-V-I movement. C Am F Dm Bdim G Em C vi ii V I I mean, the 6th cycle has organically a smooth movement ("best" voice leading) for vi-ii-V-I
This is AMAZING, but I am still using the Andres Segovia, 20 STUDIES FOR GUITAR by Fernando Sor, from the OLD SCHOOL to develop technical virtuosity. So many roads to Mastering music fundamentals, through Classical Guitar Repertoire. Try playing RIKKI DON'T LOSE THAT NUMBER SOLO by RICK RUSKIN, better to PLAY MUSIC than doing too much theory.
I just started learning TRIADS wow it has changed my learning process Keeping to one Key is difficult at the moment I want to learn all the string sets etc all at the same time like a kis in a candy store want it all at one time I know it is going to be slow and time consuming learning all keys and positions Major Minor Augmented Diminished 1st inversons 2nd inversions etc etc, Thanks for this lesson Adam PATIENTS Huh
Wow that’s difficult for me to think quickly on. It makes sense when you speak about it in terms of the starting key of C major but to remember that on the fly is harder as I, too, want to think about the 6 in relation to A minor… ala A major with a flat 3. Is there a trick insofar as how to think about that? Or am I just dense? … Don’t answer that last part lol
@@mmckinney525 I suppose the easiest way is to become more familiar with diatonic harmony. You can also memorize the progression that results from cycle of 6ths in a major key I vi IV ii vii V iii I
@@TimLerchGuitar 24:12 in this video shows a Bm triad but not a b5, ie with F#. For me this is just a case of what pallet to use, I have no problem with it, in your example it's one color scheme, in this other lesson it's another. Does that make sense? I think this distinction and what it means is great for intermediate students to understand. I think it makes sense. Hey!!! I thought now to do your sequence but with #4. I don't know yet but I bet it's beautiful hehe

It's a real treat to have you here, Tim - sharing your wisdom, alongside these other insightful friends. 🙏

You guys are beautiful people. Thanks so much!
People are in for a treat if they hadn’t heard you play before!
This is what I was looking for, thanks for sharing this fun approach and thank you Adam.
The cycle of sixth ... middle, bottom, top...and then V of... yeah! Time to woodshed! Thanks so much!
This was amazing! So much to learn from each teacher. Thanks to you all!
Tim Lerch is national treasure, thank you everyone who contributed. superb video and thank you Adam, im a fan of your playing!
Thank you Dr. Molly
this is my favouriote youtube video that has ever been posted
🥹
Thanks Adam for getting together all those educators and their different ideas on triad usage. Lots to chew on here, thanks again!
I can’t think of anyone besides Adam that could bring on all these fantastic players. Great!

Wow! Tim Lerch's suggestion is both simple and beautiful!
Thanks very much for putting this together. Much appreciated.
This masterclass is brilliant! All great teachers. Thank you!
Cory Congillio is the man! The only person who actually showed what a triad is and how it works.
Wonderful. Tim's chromatic voice movement is a lovely piece of music itself. Thanks all.
Sounds like Baroque no?

Tim Lerch 🤯🎸🔥🙏❤️
Whoa - Cory's lesson really clicked! Super awesome!
Loved it all, but Corey's presentation of Larry's stacking triads speaks modal to me, which is exactly the drug I'm looking for right now. Thank you.

Amazing video, material to study for days!
Only five minutes in and already had an epiphany! If the remaining forty-plus minutes are even half as fruitful, this video is a blessing. Thanks!
wow i mean wow i learned so much so fast with this video!! thank you for sharing this blessed me tremendously!
Thank you for the lesson
One of the best videos. Triad really levels up your playing. Helps your solos sounding tight. So great!!
Woo😅 that Dr Miller work out was amazing.
Wonderful work, Adam. Thank you!
Thanks for watching, Daniel!
Loved guitar friend Tim’s games to keep things interesting!
This is great and I'm looking forward to practice along with all these great players!
By 3:06 into this post the first chord progression was the chords for “Let It Be” by The Beatles. 😂 ❤ Brilliant 🎸
This is great! Tim’s cycle of 6ths sounded like Hallelujah.
What an incredible resource- thank you
Great lesson learned a lot
This is great. I shared it with some other folks that i know play guitar and its given me a things to practice/process. Thanks
Thanks for sharing. I'm glad you found inspiration here.
This was simply excellent. Thanks to everyone.
Thanks for watching.
This is a great lesson Adam! First time finding your videos. Instant subscribe. Also nice to have so many perspectives in one place. Thank you!
This is a gift. Thank you.

Great video 🎉😊
Merci à tous pour ces brillantes et fort intéressantes démonstrations.
Je vous en prie.
I love seeing the albums in Molly's section.
Thank you Adam and all I’m so grateful ✌️💙🎶
The circle of 6 with the chromatic 5 thing sounds and looks similar to one of the buckethead lessons
as usual, ted green was the genius!
Indeed!
waiting for this....great idea 🙂
I hope you'll dig it!
Thanks Adam great video
tim lerch's cycle of 6th played reverse is also great
Yep. I call it cycle of 3rds
it looks like Corey Congilio is almost doing that
@@ozkancanbay4963 yes! (just didn't edit my comment when I got to that point in the video.)

Good God is this video gold! Thank you
This was great,thank you all.
Thank you very much. From Bangladesh.
Great video
New sub . This is fantastic and extremely helpful. Thanks 💯
This is like the avengers of guitar!😂😂
Yes!
Subscribed!
Thank you
Good stuff.
David Becker's book Getting Your Improvising Into Shape is the best book on triads 🎸
I would love to see David on your channel 🎵

Yes. Slow and steady -- keep at it.
❤❤❤❤
Cool

Re: Tim Lerch’s cycle of 6ths. If the 5th of A minor is E, wouldn’t the sixth be F#? -A novice in need of help.
In a diatonic cycle of 6ths in the key of C major the 6th of Ami is F major. Remember to keep it all in the key : )
