    I searched for "intervals and emotions" and this was the second video and it was EXACTLY the kind of thing I was looking for! Great job, very helpful, and thanks very much for making it!
    I was really surprised to see how little views and subscribers you have! I see your videos were uploaded about a month ago and I hope you haven't given up. I took a look at your Ghibli one, too. You explain well and it's evident that you put work into them and care into organizing them to be as clear to understand as possible. I think it's good quality stuff and it's such a shame that you haven't got the attention you deserve yet. Don't give up! Try to perhaps advertise yourself more to get more traffic, I can tell you have knowledge that if you could share would be helpful to people. The only thing I can think of that might be a more helpful strategy is to maybe make your videos shorter and more summarized? But yeah, I feel like it's good stuff, but it just somehow doesn't get to the public. (Maybe you should use more hashtags or post a link to your video on reddit or somewhere that maybe people could see it. Or music forums and places like that).
    It's often rare that I find the exact kind of video I'm looking for and I'm glad the youtube search let me get to this, instead of shoving more viewed, but less closely related videos in my face.

      Thanks for your kind support and feedback! I have definetly not given up, I'm just in the middle of moving, so I haven't had time to work on any videos. Are there any other topics you think would be helpful? Or that you'd like to see in a video?

    • @ChildOfTheSmoke
      @ChildOfTheSmoke 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      TableTop Composer You're welcome and Oh, I see, good luck with the moving! :) As for topics, there is actually something that interests me and I wasn't able to find a video about it. I'm not sure I'll explain it well, but I'll try.
      It has to do with intervals again, but with focus on the relationships between them and how the combination of interval X, followed by interval Y feels and where it leads? As in how differently the "journey" would feel/sound depending on the interval you choose for Z? Or something like that...
      I really liked when you mentioned that the major 2nd is used as a sort of passing interval and to "smooth things out" usually and am curious to find similarly useful uses for the other intervals as well.
      I play the piano and have a personal tutor and I know some music theory, but I haven't studied it at a super indepth level, I would say. (I guess I know enough for most of my musical needs). I also like to try to make my own pieces sometimes, but I most of all improvise. And in my improvisations I use the T S D chords and their iterations, random rhytms I feel etc. and the melodies are mostly just guided by where my fingers feel like going and it usually sounds decent and even pretty good when I get inspired and suddenly find some good key combinations and rhytms. But I've also noticed that sometimes as I am playing, I can hear in my head where I want the melody to go, but I don't manage to always get/find the right interval or chord that I need. (and so the improvisation goes in a different direction than i imagined and intended but i go along with it, because usually i don't stop suddenly and also don't want to loose the "groove" in a way?)
      And other times I play exactly what I'm looking for. But since I've been playing for years now and I warm up before my lessons with an improvisation, I have quite a bit of them under my belt and I can notice the similarities in my approach.
      I think it's mostly the fact that I have a few intervals and chords I'm more sure in and know I can trust, and I mostly just play it safe and it can get kind of boring to me. Because if I play a very random chord it usually sounds out of place and can interrupt the whole thing...
      Sorry if I don't make much sense :D But if you have any more tips like the one with the major 2nd I think it would be very cool and useful. And also maybe something about harmony in general, but maybe mostly with examples of principles that work well, or ways in which you can generally make something more harmonized. And something about the interval relationships/uses I was talking about earlier.

      @@ChildOfTheSmoke thanks for the input! There are definitely a few tricks that I think can help you out. I'll start releasing videos again in September, and plan on focusing a bit more on melody and harmony. One tip for exploring different chords and harmonies, is that most chords can be substituted for the diatonic chord two before or two after them. For example, if C major is you Major 1st chord, it can likely be substituted for with E minor (two chords after C major) or A minor (two chords before C major), this is because they share 2/3rds of their notes (Amin and Cmaj both share C and E, while Cmaj and Emin both share E and G). Substituting your chords like this can help you bring your harmony in new and exciting directions. You can also try out extended harmonies (I give a brief explanation in the Ghibli chord Video).In the mean time just keep doing what you're doing! improvising is a fantastic way to develop your skill set!

      im sooo curious because i just cover remake Schiendler's list and wonder, why is the melody is feel soo desperate, especialy in the last notes he wrote F6 - E6 - D6 - B6 - D7 - F6 - E6 - then jump out to G#7 to A7 as a leading tone, i believe John william use lots of minor intervals , and that feel soo sad !
      And this video explain everything i want to know ! thank you @TableTop Composer for sharing this.

    It is exciting to become aware of this once again at this level. When you go from the octave to the tonic, the emotions changes in other directions. That means, that usually every tone in a scale offers different emotions in relation to each other. Very inspiring. :-)

    Minor sevenths come up a lot in blues/boogie woogie, and old soul & r&b too... if you listen to the bass line from "Tramp" by Lowell Fulson, or the Otis Redding/Carla Thomas cover it starts off going up an octave, then back to the root and up again to the minor seventh.

    I have a begginers question. If you are on the key of C, all white keys, can you use for example, the minor second on a melody or a riff? can you use notes outside of the key? Thanks for the video.

    • @keepinmahprivacy9754
      @keepinmahprivacy9754 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you can use any note in any key really. It's just that the notes in that key sound more natural and will harmonize more easily with the chords you are probably going to use most of the time. One of the frequent uses of these "off key" notes is as passing tones. That means you are just playing them "on the way" to a note that is in the key your are playing. So for the minor 2nd, you could use it between the root and the major 2nd, or between the major 2nd and the root, and it would sound perfectly fine. When you start getting to advanced stuff you will probably be using these notes all the time, they are often called "chromatic" notes after the chromatic scale which is just the scale of all 12 notes starting on the root of your key. If you want to see in action how you can use any of those notes, look up a video called "No Wrong Notes with Victor Wooten".

      @TableTopComposer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! Intervals are not key specific, nor are they note specific. All an interval is at the end of the day is a descriptor for the number of semitones between two notes. You can use them in any context :) if you want to use a specific interval that doesn't fit in your key, go for it! There are lots of strategies for using notes from outside of your key. I recommend looking into borrowed chords If you aren't already familiar with them

      Good question! Yes, starting on a C3 and moving up to a G3 is a Perfect 5th (P5). If you move back from the same G3 to the original C3, then you're working with the same notes so the interval is the same. However, if you start on the G3 and instead move up to a C4, then you're suddenly working with a new pitch and interval. This time it would be a Perfect forth, since there are less semitones needed to reach a C when moving up from G than moving down. Does that make sense? It's a little tricky to explain it without looking at a keyboard. Basically, anytime you move up from a C to a G it will be a P5, and anytime you move up to a C from a G it's a P4.

      My pleasure! And here's just a quick reference just incase you're a visual learner like me!
      "C3"- C#3-D3-D#3-E3-F3- F#3- "G3" -G#3- A4- A#4- B4- "C4"
      Notice how there are 7 semitones between C3 and G3, but only 5 between G3 and C4.
      Hope I was able to help!

    Would the Imperial March have an octave interval?

    The minor 7th sounds like an alanis morrisette song. Are you still mad from supposed former infatuation junkie.. but im not sure.. i could be wrong. But it was my frist thought hearing it.

    hello tabletop composer :) I am wondering if the interval is the same if I were to go down the instead of up. For example: G3 to F#3 (half step away) is it the same as G3 to F#4 ? Much appreciated for an answer.

    • @TableTopComposer
      @TableTopComposer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey, thanks for your patience. I don't check these old videos as frequently as the more recent ones. If I understand your question correctly, the answer is no. F#4 and F#3 are two different notes, separated by an octave. From F#4 to a G3 would be a major 7 interval, since there are 11 half steps between the two. However, if your asking about two identical notes, then the answer is yes. The space between G3 and F#3 will ALWAYS be a minor second, no matter if you start with the F# or the G. Does that answer your question? :)

    “Each oh that significant intervals ...” (11:10). I do not understand. Are you say there are significant intervals and, also, the not significant ones?

    • @TableTopComposer
      @TableTopComposer  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      "significant" was probably not the best word I could have used. I meant something more along the lines of "fundamental." There are intervals that go larger than an octave, but they can be simplified to a smaller interval. For example an interval of a major 9 is basically a "major 2 + one octave". There are also micro-tones, but those aren't nearly as common in film or concert music.

    Hi the content is great but your sound level is awful. Please make sure not to stand too far back or to turn away from the microphone. I had the sound turned up to maximum and could not hear yet I had already listened to several other youtube videos on half volume on my stereo speakers.
