I think this is one of the best guitar instruction videos I've ever seen. This entire series is excellent! Thank you for these!
My pleasure! Thanks for your awesome feedback!
Congratulations for your channel, I like your exercises that sound so classically beautiful.
Thank you very much!
Awesome job! keep the theory, it's a challenge finding good quality guitar lessons on youtube, and this is definitely one of them. Thank you.
Thank you, gabyelmurr914! Glad you like the lesson and the theory! Have fun practicing it!
Great Stuff Gregor. Clearly explained!
Don't forget Level 4 where you end the Progression with a Bend to the highest C possible whilst Sticking Tounge Out and Wide Vibrato 😜😎😎.
Thanks! I'm glad you like it! Yeah, always keep a melting guitar face while playing😂.
Might be the best triad lesson on youtube. I already know the triads on the top 3 strings but your exercises will help cement them. The website is amazing as well. Thanks for the help!
Thanks, Jeffrey! I appreciate your awesome feedback. Good to know you practice this and find it helpful. This exercise is really great. I'm sure you'll benefit from this a lot.
Now to learn the other 3 string sets
I can say that it is one of the 10 most useful lessons I have come across on youtube. Thank you man 🙏
Thanks man! I really appreciate your kind words! It feels good that you find much value in this lesson!😀
Thanks, I really love your triad lessons. Since your gypsy jazz triad lesson and backing track I am hooked.
It's my pleasure! Thanks for your support!
Nice! God bless the UA-cam algorithms. You've earned a subscriber. Keep them coming!
Thanks & Welcome Aboard!
Great work thank you
Glad you like it, Sabbath!
VERY GOOD EXPLANATION. & LESSON
Glad you liked it
Incredible man, thank you so much!
Glad you liked it!
Hey I hope everything ok with you. Look forward to next video
Hey MrDavis, All good. I'm fine! A new video should be coming soon. I hope I can soon work out a regular releasing schedule. Sometimes life get's in the way... Thank you for caring😀!
This is super useful, thank you
You are very welcome!
An excellent exercise! (It would be nice for us old folks who have a little trouble seeing if you could make the Tab a little bigger.) Just a suggestion. Thank You!
Thanks for your suggestion, Thomas! I'll keep that in mind for upcoming videos.
There are tabs for this video on my blog. They should be bigger. Feel free to visit: www.becomegreatatguitar.com/full-triad-workout-for-guitar-the-sequence-of-descending-fifths/
@@becomegreatatguitar Thank You VERY Much. That page is easier to see and VERY NICELY DONE!
BTW, I subscribed even before I made that suggestion. You do an excellent job!
Excellent content as a teacher you have a lot of potential but we as students we need time to process all the info please speak slowly and use visual aid as much as you can otherwise you will lose a lot of audience. For example this lesson could be broken in two parts each ten minutes long instead of compressing it into one. We do appreciate your valuable time thank you.
Thanks for your feedback, Edi Gabrieli! There is really a lot to process in this lesson. I'm still trying to figure out what the right amount of information density for lessons like this is. I already assumed that it might be too much for a single video, so I created additional tabs and videos on my website, so you can learn in your own pace more easily. Do you find the additional resources helpful? www.becomegreatatguitar.com/full-triad-workout-for-guitar-the-sequence-of-descending-fifths/
@@becomegreatatguitar Now you really got my attention..Thanks 👍
He talks like an AI
As long as I understand every word he said, that's great 👍
If C is the key center all you're doing is moving in 4ths, and Calling this descending 5ths is not accurate when you are moving up octaves.i feel like you made a simple exercise sound more complicated.
I hear you, Josiah! I had no intention to overcomplicate.
This exercise is adapted from my piano practice. On piano it's possible to play triads like I showed in the video with the right hand and additionally the root notes as descending fifths with the left hand as a bass line.
The „sequence of descending fifths“ has its name from the root notes in the bass (root position only). I’ve showed the exercises without this bass line, cause it’s simply unplayable to do both on guitar, but I tried to explain this at 02:47. I rushed through this part to keep it short and concise. Maybe it was too short… So I understand your critique.
The interesting thing about this progression is, as you mentioned, that you can also move in 4ths and get the octave. But this chord progression is commonly referred to as descending fifths sequence or circle of fifths progression, so I kept the name.
If you are interested in learning more about this progression, then check these videos here from other channels.
They both do certainly a better job in describing this than I do:
A great explanation from a classical perspective ua-cam.com/video/hFbghCO4U8A/v-deo.html,
An awesome video from a pop music perspective ua-cam.com/video/-DQJmicTFGQ/v-deo.html ,
Watch this as well ua-cam.com/video/PknOTF84_WQ/v-deo.html
If you wanna explore your objection with „moving in 4th/ not fifths“
Thanks for your comment!
@@becomegreatatguitar I understand I'm sure you are a good musician and over all your video quality is excellent. talking about theory can be hard because there is multiple ways to explain something. Over all I just thought this would be easier to understand if it was explained by using the circle of 4ths because it feels more natural with guitar.
