It would be great to get a longer version of this just to help us hear the tones in the chords. I'm desperate for a video for hearing tones in major, minor, augmented and diminished chords which uses this method. I know there is a video out there which is similar but this one helps more as we hear the 1st, 3rd or 5th right after trying to pick the selected one out. I'd be eternally thankful if you make another video even somewhat like what I described. This one was just what I needed! Thanks a lot!
I used to do these aural skills tests when I was a kid. I always wondered back then how you could do these little aural triadic tests successfully. Now fifty years later I know the answer. You have to listen. And of course this means you have to know what you are listening for. Better late than never I reckon. By the way, this is a stunning use of the technology. Thanks so much for your efforts.
I'm surprised I was able to do this since I don't sing and have no musical sense at all. I had to sing all 3 notes in succession to find the right one tho if it wasn't the root.
The fifth in this exercise is voiced as the highest pitch, which can be prominent as a kind of aural "handle" to help your ear find it. Try to listen for other aural handles, like loudest, lowest, how the third is responsible for coloring the sonority, and so on.
@@SaherGalt This happens to me too and the way you explain it helps me understand WHY. Thank you! I tried searching online and all I could find was "because you're ear is untrained" which is partly true but your explanation provides clear context as to why the untrained ear wants to pick up the highest pitch! I automatically would sing the 5th first, sometimes the 3rd (likely due to the coloring you mention!) and if I really listen and pay attention to how the melody ENDS and sing THAT final, stable note...voila...it's the tonic! So it's just recognizing that the highest, most noticeable aural handle isn't always the tonic which is such a helpful distinction to make!!! THANK YOUUU!!!!!! The root seems to typically be the lowest note so by paying attention to THAT aural handle I have been able to sing the tonic MUCH more consistently. YOU ARE AMAZING.

This is exactly what I've been looking for! I can't wait for the next video! I couldn't find any videos on this anywhere else.
Happy you enjoyed. New one out now, more coming
THANKKKKK YOUUUUUUU I am currently learning to hear and recognize chords by ear, it's so helpful.

Thank you👍
Epic video
I hope inversions will be coverd in one of the videos
It's on the itinerary

Excellent way in.
For some reason I always hit 5 perfectly, but completely miss 1 and 3
It might be because you hear 5ths a lot in modern music. The other intervals are more seldom.
