ABOUT THE CHANNEL:
Hi! My name is Mateo, I'm a professional musical theatre composer, splitting my time between Toronto & NYC right now.
On Thursdays on this channel, I post a video analyzing the music theory behind some of the great Broadway musicals of all time! In the past, I've analyzed works by Sondheim, Jason Robert Brown, Pasek & Paul, Jeanine Tesori, and Stephen Schwartz, just to name a few.
On Sundays on this channel, I post a video update of the progress I'm making on my writing projects, so you can follow along with the process as I create new musicals from scratch.
On Tuesdays on this channel, I post a video reacting to a performance by a star of musical theatre, discussing what makes them so amazing. For example, I recently recorded a video reacting to Aaron Tveit being cast in Sweeney Todd, despite the fact that he's not a baritone.
If this sounds like your vibe, don't forget to subscribe! ✨✨✨

It's probably not the most crowd-pleasing type of video, but it's definitely the kind that makes me go HUUUUUUHHHHH, never thought about it that way!!
lovely AND interesting video!
Learned something new today! Thank you very much!
Excellent observations! I've been aware of the 'yearning' tension that semitones offer but I never noticed the difference between the upward and downward movements at different positions in the major scale. Thanks for this.
I would suggest that there are even more emotions that can be conveyed with nondiatonic semitones, especially when they belong to a mode that conveys a particular mood on its own. Interesting video!
GREAT point!
