Brian is just the best, but this one lesson alone is perhaps the best single explanation of music structure for any guitarist or any musician in general. For me it was like walking out of the forest into the sunlight. What a great teacher (and all around guy) he is.
Thanks James Woods 🙏
Fully agreed! I finally get it. Thank you!
Mr. Woods he certainly has a tremondous ability to teach, I definetly agree with you it was a massive light bulb that went on this 57 year old brain : )
What he said!
Don't forget, also, that there's life beyond Greek scales/modes.
Single note backing track is a brilliant idea. Thanks for the lesson!
More interval training please! The most authentic guitar teacher out there. Thank you for putting so much enthusiasm and joy into your lessons Brian.
In the last 90 minutes I’ve watched this 3 times. I’ve got it down. I understand it and can apply it and now can teach others the same. Turning point video for me!
Finally coming together. It took awhile to make some sense of intervals. More interval training please. Brian, Thank You!
One of the best teachers on UA-cam. I wish he was available 30 years ago to break this stuff down into bite size chunks for me.
Such good stuff, Brian. You’re a credit to the music teaching world.
I always hit the like button first by default, and then I go through your lesson. And I've never regretted hitting that like button 😅. Thank you Brian
Haha, me too😊
😊 Me too. Afraid I'll forget, and I KNOW it's gonna deserve a thumbs up. Brian is amazing.
As a beginner concentrating on creating melodies, I believe I've found the right place to learn:)
Maybe your best lesson yet from an educational perspective, and you’ve had many good ones, thank you.
I’ve been following your lessons for years now Brian but this is at the top of the heap! Great lesson and thank you!
Brian absolutely one of your best lessons! You’re a superb teacher.
This is among your best lessons Brian. Thank you.
This, sir, is an excellent lesson! Definitely the one that is getting me to subscribe to the extra materials. I thought I knew my intervals but I’ve never *listened* to them in this way. It helps to hear the notes in an organized manner and I am NOT organized so I’d never come across this myself. Another very focused and helpful lesson. Like so many of yours, you teach me to listen and it’s not only smart but it’s way more fun!
One of the best guitar lessons I’ve ever had! You rock man thanks
One of the best lessons I’ve come across. And I’ve watch SO so many. Thanks for sharing your knowledge so lucidly.
One of the best teachers on the web. Simply great 🤟🤟🤟
Yes, This lesson I just keep going back to it & enjoying it very much!! What a teacher You are! A+A+A+A+
This has honestly changed everything for me. Amazing lesson
OK Brian this is one of the best teaser lessons ever..
I use the term teaser for one reason only when he says members get all this extra material Like playing these in multiple keys, quizzes etc.. he means it. Brian is the type of guy that doesn’t do all that smoke and mirrors, over promise underperform trickery other guys do. I have referred multiple people to the member section and every single one of them that have signed up have loved it only two people were upset with me and that was for waiting so long to tell them about it😂 Can’t wait to see the member lesson!
Thanks again Brian!!
Amazing. Brian, you are a real teacher.
Brian, this was one of the clearest, easy to absorb lessons you have presented. Thanks so much….
Literally the best instructor out there. Makes everything so clear! 🤘 thank you, Brian.
Brian this is by far the best lesson you have giving to date. You have a lot of good ones would love to see more on this subject . This will definitely help improve your ear great lesson
This is by far the best explanation I've seen. Thank you.
Thanks Brian that is probably the most important guitar lesson that I've ever watched.
Great lessons you always answer the questions people have in their heads while you're explaining,I like how you put context to the words used in music theory.
Brian i just had a moment watching this. You just opened my eyes and made me understand this for the first time. Thank you very much.
One of the best lessons I’ve seen in the last couple of years
This lesson was mindblowin for me. I learned so much in the middle of the night… Thanks a lot!
I've been playing since 1963 and your channel is the most informative out there. Excellent.
Awesome, Brian! That’s opened a lot of doors for me.
The most enlightening guitar instructor I've ever heard. This lesson is a perfect example. Love this guy.
Well hell. Now I know how I'm spending my Saturday. I LOVE this lesson. Thank you.
You are the best at explaining everything. An absolute pleasure takiing in your instruction.
how many more times i will sit with the smile on the whole face and think that it's the best guitar teacher on youtube?) thank you Brian for your work, u're actually the one who truly shed light on heads of even intermediate guitarists. you're the BEST!!!!
✨Wunderbar! Danke für die Lektionen 👌
absolutely a great lesson. thanks Brian.
Brian I have been trying to play guitar and understand the mechanics properly for many years. I have had lessons on and off for decades. I have to say this is the best lesson ever, explained perfectly and at a perfect pace for me, brilliant thank you.
This is the best lesson on intervals I have ever heard and experienced thank you so much
Dude, I love you man. This is litterly the best most important video ever. I can absolutely relate to the Title. Everyone should see this if they struggle with melodic playing. Took me a long time to figure this stuff out being self taught. Again Bravo!!!
Formatted presentation containing a wide and valuable scope that includes those little details of information that “some mortals” apparently are not born with. Nicely done, Thanks !
This is so interesting! and you explain it so well, i knew some notes leave you 'hanging' and they can be resolved with another note, and the 'blue' note.....but thats really all i knew, and now i cant wait to watch this again and get some ear training practice in, thank you Brian
Intervals are the hardest concepts for me to HEAR - but now that you came up with this absolutely BRILLIANT 💡well-constructed lesson and training materials, I think there might still be hope for me! Words can't describe how amazing teacher you are, Brian - you have AGAIN outdone yourself! 🎶💖
Yess!Finally.Someone linking the intervals with their sound ,diminished and root plus perfect 7th.Sound is everything at the right interval..
Thank you. A lightbulb moment. A brilliant lesson. I have seen many attempts to convey this knowledge, but this has to be the clearest and most accessible of any I have seen. I too wish I had heard this 45 years ago. Coming from a non musical background I love music, and on one level you don't have to know how it works to enjoy it. Musical language can seem mysterious and impenetrable, but this offers such a simple clear demonstration of how melody can work with tension and resolution. It's a short step then to harmony, add a steady beat, and the sky is the limit.
stunning channel that i discovered only yesterday, but i learned more in one day about theory than the last five years, thank you so much, Brian!
Mate, that was genuinely brilliant. Made so much sense even to an old guy like me who’s not much good on guitar. Maybe the best lesson I’ve seen on UA-cam. Thanks.
Thank you for this lesson, Brian.
this is simply excelent in its simplicity. well done.
This is one seriously exceptional lesson. Thanks
very much enjoyed your explanation of intervals. I think I understand how to use them now. Thanks
Very nicely done. Simple and direct and a very good way of making sense of melody making.
Wow. Fabulous explanation. Thank you so much Sir
Dang…..this is awesome! Just makes so much sense. The member lesson really helps a lot! Thanks Brian!
Omg, this is the best explanation of this EVER.
Brilliant Lesson! Thank you!
I have been subscribed to and followed your channel for a few years now. I just noticed you DON'T have a long, annoying, and loud title sequence. God bless you. To my mind it lends credibility to what you are trying to convey. Thanks for your efforts.
Exelente! Por fin una explicacion clara sobre el uso de intervalos. Gracias!
Cool, that was like fertilizer for my brain, Brian! Connections of feelings and sound are now more possible. On top of everything else; you gave me a way to apply and study melodies or riffs and complete song thoughts as procedure, a method. Im going to challenge myself putting song structure to this method for example, intro, pre chorus, bridges, basically passages and what feeling i want out them by using your interval connection with levels of mood. Cheers! your laid back approach is also very calming and appealing and intelligent!
Holy Toledo. A whole semester of music school in a few minutes. I went back to a theory book I worked through when I was 18. All of this was there, with zero application. And now....this. THANK YOU!
Just a great lesson. As a keyboard player I know the intervals, but as a guitar learner it was so nice to see this related to a chord, a simple position, and taking the time to hear, and feel, the tones and relationships between the notes, and over the jam track it was a clear and powerful example - very well taught - thanks so much !
Thank you so much for your lessons.... They've been so helpful
Really great lesson Brian. Been often wondering how when really great players are improvising or making it up spontaneously how they do it. This lesson feels like a real breakthrough for me in that direction. Many thanks. You're a great teacher.
L
thanks for this you explain things well. making me aware of the whole picture without overwhelming me with info.. really giving me something to try and develop! great job!
Great lesson Brian, love your teaching style!
So helpful Brian . Thank you . Another great lesson
Interesting, even after 30 years playing. Always a good reminder, and how learning flows helps learn a bunch of songs from a simple root. Great video.
super lesson, I knew the intervals, but now I understand them. great teatcher. thanks.
Great lesson. Intervals easily explained, what, how and application.
It's like the light was just switched on! Thank you for this - finally all makes sense.
Thank you Brian. Excellent.
As always you expand my guitar knowledge!!!!!
Absolutely another class lesson 👏
Dig your video's. Your teaching style is very effective. You've helped my playing a great deal.
Another Awsome lesson,Thks !, your my fav on youtube,please dont go nowhere. Thks again !
Awesome resource, thank you Brian 🙏🔥
Wow, just found this channel (coming from the circle of 5ths lesson), and I already can see it's one of the best, theory-wise. Congrats, and thank you!
Hi Brian ,
Awesome lesson. Your lessons have gone from Good to Great. Thank you as I think I finally understand the intervals and how to add in minor 3rd and flat 7th to enrich a solo .
Ken
Incredibly helpful. Thank you
Brian, job well done, sir. Nice format & like your softer approach. Cheers
That was an awesome explanation for the subject brain ..
Thank you sir ..
Always! Such clarity!
Brilliant lesson, this drew me in straight away and showed me a different way of understanding the intervals, best lesson I’ve seen in a very long time.
This was the lesson I needed. Gracias
Wow. I understand intervals and the major scale, but the way you presented this was really unique…I haven’t seen anyone present them this way. Off to turn on the looper and do this. Really cool! Thank You!
Dig the intervals lesson
Slowly starting to get it.
