Maybe in the future I will make it available for free or on a different website, which is why I don't specify the website in my video and just refer to it as a "link". This gives me flexibility for the future since I cannot edit my video later down the road once I've already posted it to UA-cam.

UA-cam can be frustrating, but all us home-taught musicians should thank our lucky stars for it, particularly gifted teachers like Gracie.
You are so so kind! Thank you!!
Absolutely. I’m an amateur jazz pianist. My ear, which is okay, takes me so far. But theory is indispensable unless you’re a genius.
Absolutely agree..she's a blessing to all of us
I just can't thank her enough, she teaches like it is her calling ❤❤❤
In some hallowed music conservatory, there is a professor worrying about his tenure because you are giving away his lessons for free.
THANK YOU GRACIE TERZIAN!
Hahaha aww you are so kind - and funny! :)
Thank you Gracie for sharing your musical knowledge. You are a great teacher.
Thank you and you’re very welcome!
When it came to music theory I was like Homer Simpson. I was struggling to concentrate but since watching your videos and the way you teach I'm totally focused. Thank you for putting the videos on UA-cam..👍
Gracie, thanks for filling in the fine details that others might assume are obvious. The signs of a great teacher are that they first, know the fine details of the subject and second, do not assume the student knows any of those details. I don't mind sitting through information that I THOUGHT I knew because the repeated info reinforces and fills in my weak spots. Much of what you teach in this lesson was absolutely foreign to me so, you made my intellectual day with this lesson. I'm really looking forward to the next lesson as to the whys of the minor scales.
You teach with love and energy that inspires, not only by your knowledge but your unique ability to impart it. This can be both humbling and addictive, a musical treasure.
Thank you so much David!!!
Well put, david!
I 2nd David's initial comment.
Here, here!!
I don’t binge-watch movies on tv. I DO binge-watch music theory videos and yours are the BEST on UA-cam. Thank you so much for all you do. I would love to have you for a teacher.
Ms Gracie, you are such a skilled teacher. It is truly amazing how you can take what is often inscrutable (music theory) and then for those of us who started out learning music by ear translate that it into concepts that finally make sense. What is particularly distinctive is not just the "tricks" to memorizing these rules, but perhaps more importantly, the genuine graciousness with which you deliver the teaching. Like so many here, i have learned so much under your tutelage. Thank you very much.
Wow thank you so much Josh!! I deeply appreciate this kind and thoughtful comment.
@@GracieTerzian Superb as always. Though it could have been condensed a bit more.
I've watched this lesson several times and each time I get a deeper understanding on the value and simplicity of this lesson!! Thank you Gracie 🎯👍🏾👍🏽
Gracie you're so dreamy.
And thanks for making all this easy to follow along for a simpleton like me
I'm so happy I found your channel, I'm basically teaching myself in my music classes and I would not survive without these videos, thanks you!
I love the comments of the other viewers coz they mirror my own, the more I learn from you and how accessible you make it the more I love you too 😅
*feelings
Brilliant as usual Gracie ! Thank you !
Thank you for what you are doing. Absolutely fantastic job on your videos. Keep up the great work!
I love how you take your time to explain. Thank you Gracie.
I am so glad I found this. Thank you!
Gracie, I am eternally grateful to have come into contact with your patiently comprehensive teaching method! It has helped me tremendously! Thank you!
Love how these videos take us through step by baby step to make it all so easy to understand. Already looking forward to next week.
Absolutely love all your videos, so easy to understand and you make learning fun. Thank you so much your videos are amazing.
Wow!! Using a few of your lessons has made music theory make sense!! I have a long way to go but it is starting to open my world up!!! Thank you!!!!
I’ve been watching your music theory videos trying to get a handle on theory. Must be working because I understand this video.
Thanks for another excellent tutorial.
In my opinion, this is the best of a lot of excellent introductory UA-cam videos on the 3 types of minor scales and their relations pairwise to major scales. Thanks for posting.
As always, a very clear and concise lesson. Thank you.
Excellent lesson as always. Very clear and thorough. Thank you.
A very useful summary, done with kindness- thank you.
You make a complex topic easy to understand. Thanks !!
Gracie.. thanks for all this. I have learned Sooo much from your vids. You make it really easy to catch on. I have noticed a huge difference in my own style. You rock 🙌 🙌
I love that you explained the intervals at the end but overall, this was a helpful video to review something that I once looked into and have forgotten.
you are a GREAT teacher! Thanks for givin us such fantastic lessons! Cheers from Brazil!
Great video! I've shared this with a few of my students. You make things very easy to understand. THANK YOU!!!
Such timing, as a piano player I just started learning the minor scales last week. You've made it simpler than the books I have to make sense of it. Looking forward to the continuation of this series. Thank you!
Thanks so much…I’m starting to study piano and bass guitar and I’ve learned an awful lot about minor scales and how to read , write , and understand how to find them from this video.✨
LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS ... SO MUCH TO COMPREHEND BUT I TRY TO WATCH OVER AND OVER ... RELEARNING THEORY FROM WHAT I WAS TAUGHT OVER 60 YEARS AGO ... AN EXERCISE FOR THE MIND ... YOU ARE A GREAT TEACHER DEAR ...
you're an excellent teacher! thanks for your videos!
What a great lesson ! Minor scales have always been a mystery to me. Thanks Gracie you brought me out of the fog.
Well paced lessons - not too slow, nor too fast. Very helpful!
Its a woderful thing having the GOAT sharing thoughts in the easiest manner to comprehend, , and fir free,,Godblss u Gracie!......cant wait to watch the next music video lesson , ttnx.
Incredibly helpful. You’re a great teacher!!!
Well, watching at lunch yesterday didn’t work out as planned…better late than never! Thanks Gracie, awesome teacher
Definatly helpful, GRATEFUL!!
I just love to watch you talk about music. It all becomes so logic and simple 🙂
I have recently been looking at this videos and have been catching up with learning. I was able to understand the circle of Fifths due to your video, and I was able to apply it to some of what you were teaching in here. Thank you for the knowledge.
This girl is a beast. Her channel is an absolute gold mine on youtube. Thank you so much
Ms.Terzian
You are truly GREAT
You are one awesome teacher. Thank you
I've been binging your videos for hours. I've been playing piano and guitar for over 30 years, mostly self taught to play by ear. I wanted to learn music theory and found your videos, and I'm glad I did!
Fantastic! ❤ Thank you for being amazing.
Lovin these tutorials!
So awesome, thanks, Gracie!
Thanks Gracie as usual loved it looking forward to next video😎🌺🌸🌼💜
One thing I liked about this video the most is that we consistently reviewed things, As a reminder. It really helps out a lot. Especially the examples we did which allowed more practice and understanding. Genuinely overall the best video out there that helps us learn about these scales.
You are just like a doll. I really enjoy watching your videos and getting so many things. Thank you.
Gracie - thanks for your uploads. Of all the tutorials I've watched, yours always shines the most. Eloquently spoken and taught. PS thanks for also mentioning the reversal on the E Melodic and Harmonic from the D and C charts
Once again you’ve explained a confusing concept (to me) clearly. Love the white board and pace of the lesson. Thanks
Excellent lesson, Gracie! You are so good at teaching music theory. Explaining how the 3, 6, and 7 are flatten and when, cleared up so much for me on the different minor scales. I had watched another UA-cam video years ago on minor scales, but he just used intervals. For me, it's easier to remember what degrees get flattened and when. Thank-you!
Always clear concise and easy to understand; well done Gracie..........mgg
Wow, how good is this! I have watched heaps of your videos and all are really great learning tools. Your presentation and manner is open, approachable and your teaching style is inclusive of those watching, it all adds up to make it very engaging and so it follows that learning is made easy for us. All very enjoyable and easy to digest. Thanks heaps, now I'm off to patron to add my contribution, after-all gotta to try to keep you making more....I have found music theory presented by you to form a really nice basis to my music experience and learning. journey.😀
Thank you so much for all this information Gracie! I have been running away from music theory (math too) for such a very long time, even though I claim to be a singer/song writer, but you have helped me face those dark fears. This means a great deal to me.
Heyyy Gracie!!! What an awesome tutorial. It is so well explained. Yes you kept us on our toes when you switched them around. You have such a great approach. It is very helpful when you play them on the piano with the image above. This video deserves 3 stars and more. Looking forward to the “ why” video next week. Very helpful tip to flatten the 3 for all the minor scales. Also helpful when you count the half steps and whole steps with us.. 👏⭐️⭐️⭐️
You are a wealth of information. I'm enjoying learning theory from all your videos.
Ms. Gracie, you are an excellent teacher, easy to understand with a proper attitude, and have wonderful teaching skills. Thank you very much for your dedication.
Thank you for this video, Gracie. I was completely in the dark about minor scales until now. It's starting to make sense. Great videos.
Awesome tutorial. God Bless keep it going.
Wonderful lesson Gracie, I wait each week for them and you never ever disappoint? Much love x
Aw thank you Gary!! :)
wow.. you are really good at this.. incredibly job
Your Music Theory videos are just stunning. Thanks to you I learned the western 12-TET system and interconections between its notes in no time. I watched more videos about circle of fifths, scales, chords etc... It also added something to overall understanding, but your way of teaching and explaining is truly one of the best out there and makes understanding a breeze. Thank you for the time you put in to make these videos.
This is really Awesome . You are a great teacher..
Oh my! She's an amazingly wonderful teacher! Wish I knew her before. Thank you Gracie for such a helpful video on minor scales
Very educative and inspiring stuff
Your teaching style + pentatonic scales = need ASAP
Extremely interesting. I will have to view this one again.
Thank you Gracie for breaking down your lesson in layman's terms. You make it so easy to understand. You are a fantastic teacher. You proceed at the right pace making it easy to follow you. I am working my way through all your lessons. Thank you for taking the time to help others.
Great video! Very valuable channel as well
My fav teacher!! I understand much better with the way this is explained than I have trying to learn from books! ❤
Thanks - another excellent lesson.
Ms Gracie! You are really awesome teacher. Great! God bless you.
Very thoroughly covered 👍
Very effective video. Thank You, Madam. Thanks once again.
Great job. I love it. Thank you ❤️🙏
Gracie, thank you so much for the very easy explanations.I understand your lessons. you beat my music teacher by 100%
Great video. Thank you very much. 👍🏻
love thisss thanks again Gracie
My favorite teacher! These basics are really easy to understand when you bring them up... at class I stare at my book looking for the answer jaja!
gracie the best tutorial on minor great going
Excellent video !
With this one, I ended up in the twiligth zone with this weird melodic minor scale whose notes differ depending on whether you play it in an ascending or a descending way !
But it does not even hurt that bad ! And I am not even scared,... since I have got a good teacher with me !
Excellent instructions thanks. Your a great teachers
Hi, I just started watching Friday. And that day I took my 1st lesson from Sweetwater. I've been playing two and a half yrs on my own. But they told me learn the diatonic scales, but when I started watching everything you've posted. I've learned twice as much from you since Friday. You explained it so well I caught on immediately. So thank you so much. If I could pay you I would
Not only do you sing wonderfully, and play excellently, and teach superbly, you are also graced with great physical beauty. I wish you the best in your ride in this life, Gracie. Thank you for your efforts.
Gracie you are amazing! You just explained in 3-5 seconds, what I have watched countless UA-cam videos and participated in hours of instruction and still not understood. 'A scale is a melody' that can be also explain modes, etc. You changed my whole understanding in one simple sentence. Now I get it. Thank you.
Also, you know your a new mommy when... we move up a third, 'like a bunny hopping'🌻🐇
Simple love it, simple in a simple way. many thanks
Typically great lesson! Very helpful. Thanks so much & stay safe.
Thank you so much! Same to you
Thank you ms Gracie, your learning about music theory is very helpfull.
I would love to see you playing piano in all notes you have tought.
Very educational. Thank you
Wow you really got me now! by changing the melodic and the Harmonic I thought You where mistaking it but I was not aware of you changing the line-up!!! Hahaha! 📌😍🙏
Great lesson! I think I'd go for the perspective of seeing changes from the major scale instead of half & whole steps, but maybe also with the melodic and harmonic minor so the melodic should be just flatten the third of the major scale and so the third and sixth for the harmonic minor I guess. Anyway thank you for your videos because you take your time with examples and explain concepts not giving things for granted!
absolut great teacher👍
Gracie you are the greatest teacher EVER!!!!!
Yes, Gracie I may not be normal, I watched 2-1 and 1-2, but! I get it! And they say you can't teach a old dog new trix. You have proved them wrong! Thank you doll
You’re amazing. Just bought a ukulele from the link you provided. Keep up the awesome work!
Your teaching is awesome. Just took up the sax and doing my best to learn the major and minor scales.
