    I've never felt so intense watching a music theory video. It feels like i'm about to go to war with intervals as my weapon

    You sound so calming, yet so scary at the same time, and I don’t know how to feel about it

    • @thehiraethserendipity3425

      That is because the music used uses a lot of non-clean intervals, less perfects and majors, more augmented, diminished and minor.

    Extremely well done as usual, intervals make a lot more sense to me now.

    This video has the cadence of a conspiracy theory video.

      Ironically enough yes it does. How interesting that a music theory video takes the cadence and tone of a conspiracy theory video lol... and no less, the guy's last name is Galt!!!

    Just discovered this channel. Have to say you're probably the best music teacher on UA-cam. Your originals are also outstanding. You're extremely musically talented and can I also say your voice is melting my brain. The way you speak into your mic in these lessons is awesome. Subbed

    Apart from being pleasing to the ears and mind, I want to personally thank you for putting out such high quality videos. This lesson is GOLD to anyone who recognises the importance of learning intervals. You explained it so precisely and I greatly appreciated the examples you threw in. I will spread the word about the good work you do 🤗☺️

    This video actually helped so much, I hated doing intervals and now that I understand it, I can tolerate it. I kept on putting my practice test off to the side because it started with intervals but once it was one night before my exam and now im cramming. This helped more than my teacher explaining it because of the visuals . THANKS 💕‼️

  • @jamchiell
    @jamchiell 4 роки тому +1

    Really well explained. I found this for my son who was looking for an efficient way to name intervals. He has an ABRSM exam in March and thanks to your lesson he'll be able to get all the interval questions right.

  • @maykilJuicewa
    @maykilJuicewa 4 роки тому +1

    I've been learning intervals since high school, but this video explains differently from what I have learned before, and it changes how I look at the intervals. Today, I learn the idea "is the higher note in the key of the lower note?", and I haven't heard that before. Thank you for simplifying music theory.

    • @sydneybidney5671
      @sydneybidney5671 5 років тому +1

      One really helpful way to figure out the key signature of a Major key is the circle of fifths! Memorizing is obviously helpful for this process, but the circle of fifths makes it a bit easier before you’ve reached that point ☺️

    Who came up with this? This is such a confusing notation. I thought current flow was confusing when I was studying engineering. NOPE! Here comes music theory.
    Good job at explaining it, though. Nice video.

    • @leolegendary3275
      @leolegendary3275 5 років тому +9

      @Nox Eath I do not find music theory hard. It is confusing. Just like current flow is not hard to understand, but the guys who discovered it flipped a coin and decided it will flow from positive to negative.
