I'd like to thank Pianonote. I was a self-taught pianist, adult learner. I tried to play the piano by ear and was getting horrible headaches. And then I watched one of your amazing videos, and started using my fingers.
So glad to hear this! We’ve got lots more to come too :)
@@PianoteOfficial haha didnt u get the sarcasm
@@imdamanization I think they did. They're a great bunch.
Great 😆😆😆😆😆😆
This is super good. Love this one! Thanks Kevin! Really need this lesson. ❤️👏👏👏👍🏼
This is great! Always looking for new examples for students, these are relatable even for younger kids today! Thank you 👌👌👌
Thank you for the great lessons, I'm a self taught pianist, secondary instrument, learning the piano from your lessons have improved my knowledge on theory and also learning to apply to guitar
Great lesson! Thank you Kevin and Pianote! 👍❤
You are so welcome!
Great Lesson. Thanks
These videos are so underrated, This is absolutely Gold.
Really amazing lesson! These are so great to learn and emphasizing these wonderful intervals. Love that Rush & Davie Bowie ones! 🤘❤️😊
Since using this method I am much much better at identifying intervals
@@PianoteOfficial Your teachings are great! Will keep going because I am seeing results every week. Thank you so much Pianote! Love you! ❤️🤘😊🎹🎼
I love your selection of songs as examples.
Thanks it was a lot of fun finding ones that worked
hello there pianote team.. thank you for the video. i am a beginner and i must say.. i didn't understand what this video is about and what should i do after watching it.. i couldn't figure out what i am watching.. unlike all ofyour other videos which is much clearer for me and easy to follow. please advise :)
Excellent lesson! I m ready to learn this. Thank you Pianote! Thank you Kevin! 🎹👍🏻🔝
Awesome I’m Jack! 👍🏼😊❤️👏👏
@@LisaRSArt Hi Lisa 👋🏻 Have a Wonderful day!😊❣️🎹👍🏻
@@ImJack6 You, too, my friend! Have a terrific day. 👊❤️😊👍🏼
Great lecture Kevin, thank you, I love all these examples for the different intervals 👌 My example for the ascending minor 7th: The guitar intro on Run For Your Life by the Beatles. That always comes to my mind because it was the first Beatles song I tried to learn as a young boy. And it left and undelible mark on me at that age 😄👍😉
Thanks for sharing! definitely smart to use songs that speak to you personally, its much much easier to remember that way! I use the simpsons for the tritone!
@@PianoteOfficial Oh yes, The Simpsons for the Tritone, that's what I use too 👌😄👍
Superb lessons 👌👌👌👏👏👏
🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thanks, it's very useful!
Glad it was helpful!
❤️ WOW
AMAZING 🌹THANK YOU SO MUCH
Interval recognition is an important part of ear training and notion transcribing from audio to paper. However, it's also important to see and here these intervals in relation to tonal centers to better understand these intervals in the function of a piece. In the example of Beethoven's Fur Elise Bagatelle, the d# into the alternating e is a minor second, but it doesn't function as a minor second in relation to its key of a minor. It functions as a non chord tone of a sharp 4th, more as a non chord passing tone of sorts. My point is that interval training is important but relationship training is an extension of music theory too.
Thanks for your comment. Any resources you'd recommend for this?
@@_jordanhayles Yes. Me, and I'll need a few to gather others for you. Just busy atm but I'll get back to you soon.
@@_jordanhayles The BEST tool to use is to practice Ear & Voice Training Exercises that you can find on UA-cam. We didn't have those same resources years ago when I was going to school for my Music Education degree, but they're essentially the same approach. For example, the tools use popular melodies and isolate an interval within that melody. So an interval of an octave can be heard and sung until memorized based upon the octave jump of "Some-where" (is the octave jump before the rest of the phrase "over the rainbow"). By using familiar tunes to absorb their intervals through listening and singing back those specific intervals, you'll train your ear AND mind to recognize the different intervals. You'll never need another instrument again to test intervals purely for their sound. If you get super familiar with this process, you'll be able to read and write music ALL in your head too. It's very useful, and it's something I use regularly when I don't have a piano nearby. Good luck!
Oh Minor descending 7th 7:38 so beautiful! Thank you. ❤️😊👊
Exactly 👍😊❤ Have a wonderful Friday, dear Lisa! ❤
Yay! I love that too ❤😃👍😉👊💕
Truly one of the most beautiful!
Most of what I’ve learnt is by ear 👂 and this really helps 👍
I’ve been practicing hearing the songs instead of the intervals and it’s been working great
Thanks for this! 👍🇳🇿🎶
Very interesting
Pianote, the magical land of music. 🥰
Its a wonderful world!
Another popular song that uses the descending octave is chiquitita by abba
Great listening to music steps. I am a senior citizen trying to learn electronic keyboard for the past 2 years and yet to make any perfection. So it's my humble opinion that "learn piano in 7 days" or "play as soon as you hear" are all pep talks and just marketing. I am an avid follower of Pianote and listen to many tutorials of Mangold or Piano Pig etc too. For an average senior person who can spend "1 hour before the keyboard" for a day cannot attain these super levels. Even though after 2 years of sincere efforts@1hr a day of remote training, I could play refrains of any song but without applying those memorizing chords... So piano guys pl do not pull the long bow...
Wow; tuyệt vời!
Good stuff…
I really liked this video but I think it could've been better if it had a column all the time for reference of the intervals. This video felt more as a lightning round with no time to absorb the content explained
This was really helpful!! Can we get more ear training lessons? Also would be nice to get some Taylor Swift song tutorials
Deal & deal!
Kevin is so calming.
he is a peaceful presence on screen and in the office!
The Summer Nights snippet sound identical to the intro of One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful, I was even expecting the drumsticks beats at the end lol
hahaha i had never thought of that before but as soon as I read your comment i could hear it exactly
Zaytovens track used to this [drake/future] uses the 4-1 progression
gonna go listen!
Minor 3rd up Brahms Lullaby, perfect 4th up and down mexican hat dance
definitely going to use the hat dance
Hi I’m a need to I’ve been watching your videos since January and Lisa you’re really good but some of the people that you work with, if they say which note they are playing? I am blind so I can’t see what notes you’re hitting and I used to play the piano but I stopped playing for a long time and so I lost that year for the piano and I have gotten back into it since January
noted! thats definitely something we can be mindful of!
MS!!!
Im begging plsss respond to me 😭
I think i did broke the 120k piano
Plsss tell me does piano easily broke if its plug in wrong adaptor onece??
ascending minor 9th can use Killing in the name of... D - D#
Im the 1k- th like!
and 1k thank yous to you!!
This be like, "The interval between the third and fourth note played in the introduction to this song you've never heard before ..."
you havent heard these songs?
how about those korean drama love songs??i always hear them its the same interval lol
I’m gonna have to watch some dramas!
What key is he playing in??
for each example we are sticking to the reference songs original key so that it can be heard most easily when comparing to the real things
I think the intervals will apply in any key
Learning intervals is not functional or efficient. If you want to play tonal music, you need to practice tonal ear training. It's harder than learning a few intervals but it will get you somewhere at least. Intervals are only easy to recognize out of musical context, or in a very specific musical context. Like a perfect fifth could either be jumping from do to so or from re to la or from mi to ti in an ascending order. If you learn the star wars theme's perfect fifth, it's only going to help you in a third of ascending fifths cases (if it does help you at all).
Also keep in mind that to apply interval ear training, you need to constantly make reference to two notes and to a learned melody, which is slow as hell.
Learn music the way it's told in music schools please.
Totally agreed
Listening this... and seeing comments... I should just quit, cause I dont even understand, how to make any of this useful or learn from it. :-D
sometimes just being able to hear the changes in the songs you are enjoying and listening to and then further more being able to distinguish them and learn why they sound the ways they do is something anyone not just a practicing piano player can appreciate ❤
Same here...
I am waiting for arijit's songs.
INDIA
