I play guitar as a hobby and never tried to understand from where chords and scales comes from as it sounds like a astrology to me. By watching your three videos here, it all makes sense now! You’re great teacher!
Wow, I've tried to understand this for years and you explained it wonderfully! Thank you for sharing and making a difference for those of us who are musically challenged. Science and math are easy for me but music goes right over my head. Thank you!!!
This is, without a doubt the best music lesson I’ve ever watched. Peggy you explain so simply and effectively. Thanks for making the piano keyboard make sense
Came for the chords - stayed for the shirt. All joking aside, the video was well taught, simple, and easily understood. Thank you from an aspiring new musician.
wooooow thank you! i have played the clarinet when I was young and now learning myself to write music on the (digital) piano and I am having sooooo much more fun. thanks for your explanation so we can just start making music and not overcomplicate things.
You paid way too much!!! You could have picked up any decent keyboard book at the guitar center for. For twenty or 30 bucks and learned not only this lesson, but much much more!!!. And, saved a ton of money to boot!!.
A friend on my friends Mac laptop watching this video with two screens. You look awesome! Such a great teacher! Pleasure to watch! Really epic chords! Fun to jam with!! Loving the simplicity!! :)
I appreciate the video, but the title is a bit misleading. It says nothing about "how to write better chords and progressions". This is a topic on which I would love to see a video.
Thanks for this! Although i learned to read music at school and can play chords on a guitar i never really knew what a chord was, what made it major or minor. This is so helpful!
There's the major key and the minor key, each of which adds to the overall direction and mood to a song. To find out more about chords, see this blog article: blog.landr.com/learn-chords/
I don't understand how to know the chords quality like it says in the video. Like how do you know if the fourth chord in the key of A#, for example, is minor or major?
wish you could teach us how to work out what each note in a chord is just by listening to it ....... wondering does that just come from knowing all the chords ? .. or is there a way to hear a chord you never heard before and working out what each note is ? ...
thanks for this! I like to say that it is 3 half steps up or 4 half steps up instead of saying "between" because a separation of 3 half steps up technically has two notes in between them, which can lead to confusion when you say "the first and third scale degree of a minor chord has three half steps between them"
Great explanation! I am a lil confused about scale and chords. Since a scale are notes that plaus well togheter, playing any 3 notes togheter randomly in the scale will make a chord? Thanks :)
It would be incredible if you guys film other video where you explain ideas of how to do a regular progression more interesting and things like secundary dominants etc
Thanks David! A good daily practice approach from my experience, is to have a small goal or direction in mind. Set a timer for 15 minutes, and practice towards that goal taking 5 minutes off every 15.
I have a question.or a couple rather. as a beginning song writer producer who would watch all of your videos in which to learn chord progressions and the starting of a melody which in turn would hopefully stir up some creative emotional writing as I write from emotion usually lower keyed deeper emotion then gradually forging to a higher emotional standing ground, would I for one need basic keyboard skills, music reading basic knowledge, etc. or could I just watch all u have on chord progression then take that to my daws, and midi, currently learning with in home studio: MacBook 2017 version , mpk mini , interface , Aston microphone , and autotune. my goal is to write something slowly melodic that is freeform written from the soul. do I need a keyboard ? or is midi sufficient ? sucks as an artist you have to go to school or at least know u have the right tools. for some of us missing in strategy and vibe can be costly .

Every single chord is an exact replica of each other the only thing that's different apart from its given letter is its sound and pitch. Musical note progression is an infinite loop with 22 variations per chord 7 main chords in total its endless. For no one on earth could ever fully master it although many have tried but all fall short.
Can't seem to get my brain to understand this stuff. Don't understand music theory and I always let my ears guide me. I can get some chord progressions to work well but very simple ones. Nothing great or complex which would definitely give a better emotional feeling. Music theory is too complicated and scares me. Guess I'm not very smart LOL!
We all start out that way. A great way to learn about #music theory is kind of following the same learning patterns that you do with learning a new language--or even working out. Taking a brief moment of time out of your day to sit down and immerse yourself will gradually transition you from a novice to a pro.
@@LANDRmusic thanks for your reply. Do you know a good video I can watch not too complicated besides yours? Triads, half steps, whole steps, really confusing stuff. 😁
I am weirdly understanding. I usually have blank brain when I try to learn anything about music, but this tutorial is weirdly making its way in my head.
What's your favorite chord?
E6 easily
I need help I didnt understand when you played the (i) (v) (vi) (iv) in F major.
@@esededr nice and jazzy.
E flat
Often times, people underestimate the usefulness of extension cords.
I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW HELPFUL THIS WAS, I LITERALLY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO TEACH MYSELF CHORDS AND EVERYTHING AND THIS MAKES EVERYTHING SO MUCH EASIER
The enthusiasm of this comment is unmatched. Thanks Dayz, we're so glad this helped you.
Chords - when three or more notes are played together.
- responsible for setting emotions in the music.
Harmony - when two notes are played together.
- The most common chords are triads
Which contains three notes from the major scale -
Root - 1st note , 3rd note and the 5th note.
In music there are 4 types of triads.
In this video major and minor chords are discussed.
Major - sound brighter and happier
Minor - sound darker and serious
Thank you!

I ve read books on chords but still had my own doubts, you made it crystal clear in just 7 minutes, Thanks a box lady
You are so good at this ..Am AXLE FLAME A PRODUCER FROM SOUTH AFRICA DURBAN ..AND AM PROUD OF U
Why are you proud of her
I just paid 2,000 for theory lessons thank you for this
glad this helped spark the drive to learn more about music theory!

Thanks for the feedback!
I was JUST about to say that
well said sir
yeah the title definitely sounded like it was going to be more than basic theory and progressions.
Love this! Just staring in music education/production your videos are great and midi packs. Literally great
GOD UR HELPFUL IVE BEEN TRYNA UNDERSTAND THIS FOR MONTHS and u blew my mind how good you explained
Great content! I've played piano for over a decade and never understood this until now lol! Thanks so much!
That was helpful....but 6:49 onwards what you did with both hands .....please explain.
Thanks for this! Although i learned to read music at school and can play chords on a guitar i never really knew what a chord was, what made it major or minor. This is so helpful!
Love her voice 😍
Your channel is literally the best. Your teaching exactly what I’m looking to get better with.
Very informative video..prob 1st time I understand the progression of chords in a particular key
So glad to hear that.
You are my favorite teacher so far !!! 🤣🙏
Wow, thanks!
Thank God I landed up here for clearing my music theory. Will definitely recommend this to everyone.
Awesome, thank you!
Yes, but what the left hand is playing with the right-hand chords? That is where I get stuck playing the piano.
Nice refreshing and simple explanation, thanks!
It's a great way to wean into more complex theory!
Love how your piano sounds. What type is it
I am a music lover and trying to lean music for pleasure.
This is a very good video. Thank you dear
Such a great teacher!!!
Glad you think so!
Thank you! This made much more sense than I'm used to having Music Theory make!
Glad to hear it Eric!
Great video!! Just wondering what kind of keyboard are you playing on??
It's the Komplete Kontrol S49!
thanks for the tutorial. I'd love to see some fore chord progressions tutorials. Cheers
is there a way to work out what each note is in a chord of four notes by ear ? or does it just come from learning all the chords ?
Thank´s a lot! This was the most helpful video in a long time =D
Glad to hear that! Thanks for the comment.
great simple explanations🎶🤩 love the outfit
Thank you! 🤗
Hello Peggy, this is a wonderful resource .
Does chord progressions matter when writing classical pieces? Also so you can only play the notes in that chord?
You are such a lovely person and you make learning really smooth and enjoyable, thaaaank you so much 🤗🤗
My pleasure 😊
what is the brand of this piano?? thank you
This is very helpful but I didn't understand what F major is
Do you have a video where you explain it
There's the major key and the minor key, each of which adds to the overall direction and mood to a song. To find out more about chords, see this blog article: blog.landr.com/learn-chords/
0:42 If chords are always three or more notes then what is two notes called.
I don't understand how to know the chords quality like it says in the video. Like how do you know if the fourth chord in the key of A#, for example, is minor or major?
I guess it’s because those are all chords that you can play in given scale
wish you could teach us how to work out what each note in a chord is just by listening to it ....... wondering does that just come from knowing all the chords ? .. or is there a way to hear a chord you never heard before and working out what each note is ? ...
Thanks for the video. Could you do some video about Composing, timing/subdivision beats, arrangement on Ableton? thank you in advance
Thanks for the feedback. Definitely something to consider, for sure.
thanks for this! I like to say that it is 3 half steps up or 4 half steps up instead of saying "between" because a separation of 3 half steps up technically has two notes in between them, which can lead to confusion when you say "the first and third scale degree of a minor chord has three half steps between them"
Wow, this final makes sense 👏!
Two notes makes a harmony
Your videos are easy to follow love it.
Happy to hear that!
I love your video. You've gotten a new subscriber.
Very well done! And great presentation by a beautiful lady 🤗
Does one have to memorize all the chords? What is a key?
Anyone know what keyboard she's playing on in the intro and outro? The color and quality of the sound is soooo nice
Fender Rhodes
Omg thank you!! You just made my amazing!!
How did you match the left hand instantly with the right hand ?? I never grasp the trick...
This video was a good beginner overview of chords in their most basic sense but was not helpful for writing better chord progressions.
It's a great way to start out, for sure! Thanks for the feedback. We'll keep that in mind.
My guess is that only beginners would be here .
You dint have to comment you know
good video! can pls do a video to show how to build minor chords and major chord pls!!!
Great explanation! I am a lil confused about scale and chords. Since a scale are notes that plaus well togheter, playing any 3 notes togheter randomly in the scale will make a chord? Thanks :)

Loved this. Foundational for me. Great vibe too. What’s a good daily practice approach?
Thanks David! A good daily practice approach from my experience, is to have a small goal or direction in mind. Set a timer for 15 minutes, and practice towards that goal taking 5 minutes off every 15.
Thank you for a very nice lesson ...
I want to take the next lesson ...
You are welcome!
great video
So the terms G Major and G Minor are titled those because the beginning notes start at G?
That's correct!
@@LANDRmusic Thank you!!
hi Peggy, please how munites should i practice
Peggy says: 25 hours a day! In all seriousness, a focused practice session of 20-30 minutes a day is plenty.
@@LANDRmusic
Okay. Thank you so much.
great video learned alot!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you!!!!! You are the Best🥲
You're welcome!
Thank you!!
I like how there are no inappropriate comments here :)
For something u could do next maybe chord inversions? If u haven’t already done one😊
amaizing! I love it!

Isn't it? Now that you've got the basics, you can move on to more complex theory--and ideas!

I love the minor chords
Awesome .... Thanks for the simplicity
Great. Glad you liked it!
Extremely good video
Thanks!

Kindly make a vid on songwriting using chords

great, thank you dear
Thank you too
I didnt get 3.54. Why dont we count with black keys there
A little difficult to follow. Need to listen to the video a few times. But very well explained.
Great video n I enjoy it

Every single chord is an exact replica of each other the only thing that's different apart from its given letter is its sound and pitch. Musical note progression is an infinite loop with 22 variations per chord 7 main chords in total its endless.

Gaaaawd ❤️
thanks
Feels weird watching this to help me make fire beats up
What exactly is chord progression??? How will you explain chord progression??? Thanks
Can you explain this with a saxophone
4:29 this is so casually hilarious - i love love love her personality omg i wish she was my teacher in real life
Try the 1 5 6 4 in the key of D Major
Holy, I finally understand what's going on😭
