This explains so much. It has that rach sound and I guess “that sound” is using augmented chords.

This is fantastic. I love how straight-to-the-point it is (just showing us the chords).

Wow, you just took what very likely could be my most favorite moment in all of music (this section connected with me during a dark time) and made it understandable for me via the piano... I can play this now! Thank you so much for this amazing gift, you're making amazing content and I can't wait to see more of what you have to offer!
