This isn't just brilliant, This is the best Music theory introductory method I've ever come across!
Shout out
The absolute BEST explanation for beginners on TH-cam!!!
Difficult to put into words how helpful this video is.
Your editing is also insane! You put so much work into all your videos.
Criminally underrated channel!
Im a pretty young pianist you could say, at 13 years old and have been playing for 6 years. I really want to progress even more and get better I take part at the school band for example and my teacher actually gives me motivation. I don’t want to flex or anything, just want to tell you that this actually helps, because ppl always ask me to play things, and chords are pretty important in plying by ear. You really make me happy with your piano vids, so fun to have fun learning something😝greetings from Germany bro👍
They definitely are important for playing by ear! I’m glad you like my videos and find it fun. 😊
At 13, imagine what you will be able to do on the piano in 10 years time. 🤯
Hey I'm from Germany too and always wished to play the piano but just had the possibility to start as an adult with nearly 40 years so your son lucky to start early and that consistent! Whish you all the best!! 🎹💖
What about doing some piano videos on your channel?
@@matticawoodim currently learning last Campanella, and what can you say it’s really difficult🥲I just hope I can learn more classical pieces because I’m really interested in that
@@LadanzaTubehi ich schreibe mal auf English falls es andere interresiert: thanks for the kind words, I wish I could actually do some videos, I have actually thought about it several times but I just don’t have the time to. Because of school especially but one day I will :)
About a year ago I was at a family members funeral. At the funeral there was someone playing the piano. I was never a musical person and really had no interest in classical music or in the piano. I have no idea what piece the person played but it just hit me. It was the first time i really listened to someone playing the piano and it was beautiful. After the funeral I tried searching up the song but never found it. And also that day I ordered my first electrical piano. I've been playing the piano almost everyday since then and I thought about writing some pieces myself and ended up here. This was a really good and clear video and I'm gonna be watching alot more of you in the future.
Claire de lune
Not a funeral, but my "heart-stirring song I can't find" piece for the longest time like this was Gymnopedies no. 1 by Erik Satie. It was maddening. Took months to finally stumble on it in a video, used as background/mood music. All three Gymnopedies are powerful. Hope you can find your song.
Very simply explained and I watched the entire video in one go but now my brain really hurts !
Best lesson ever, I wish every music teacher teach like this
This is painless music theory with clearly illustrated practical examples in one short video. Congratulations for a well thought out and presented comprehensive lesson. Thank you. I am subscribing from Malaysia.
I play piano i just want to say thank you for help my piano practice
You are very welcome! 😊
Although I already know music theory, the way you explain it to new people is so amazing. Not everybody can do this. Keep up your great work!
I am a 53 year old newby😅 ,this is absolutely excellent THANK YOU.
You are such an amazing educator, who can effectively demystify many seemingly complex theories. It is demoralizing for self-teaching learners to build technical skills without proper instruction and guidance. I didn't even know what I didn't know before watching your videos.
this video is incredibly helpful for beginner to compose music, thank you
No problem! I hope you get some use out of some of it 😊
Yes you're right absolutely for that use it's awesome or for playing just acommpaintment.
Nothing totally new for me but what a fantastic video all explained so good and well structured. Best video on that topic I watched!!
But please now make as such a video that is about playing song covers with melody in the right hand and left hand patterns in the left. Please focus on left hand patterns and when to use which one and how and why in the left hand. Talk about arpeggiated patterns and rhythmic patterns so we can play a cover on the piano if we know the melody for the right and know the chords (no matter if we have a Leadsheet or sort it out by ear)
Please do such a video. I would really appreciate 🎹💖🎹💖 and I'm sure more people would too 🙏🏻🙏🏻🤗
You have the gift of teaching. You make the concepts easy to understand. There are a lot of outstanding piano players on TH-cam as you are, but don't know how to teach effectively. But you do. Thank you
Please make more videos like this, it was really helpful!
This explains so much, I didn’t realise I played so many inversions
Wow! 🤩 I saw so many videos on YB for beginners and no one could to explain this so well! THANK YOU! 😇 You are really able to teach. It is a unique gift! 😊
Brilliant! Sus2 and Sus4 now makes more sense as explained here ... thank you!
My understanding is Pro, my ability is intermediate to advanced depending on how well my hands are working that day...I love noodling and coming up with weird stuff!
Just came by to tell you, that videos like this trully make a difference. As a classical pianist, I have been struggling to understand how to play pop and rock songs on piano so that they dont sound plain and empty and your video "8 levels of playing chords" really helped me in that and this one is even more in depth! Thanks for doing this, I will be looking forward to other videos like this!
Superb video - Very helpful for me, who is just starting out - Thank you
You make it look so easy!!! Hahaha when I tried to do it, I mistaked one note which lead me to get the scale and triad wrong😭😭😭😭
This video is GOLD! Master class on chord patterns!!!
I’m glad you think so! 😊
Such a well designed and well delivered tutorial. So much of piano playing condensed into one 40 minute tutorial.
Brilliant video! So much explanations in about half an hour without any danger of boredeom. Thanks!
EXCELLENT articulation! I really like you facilitator style, easy to follow and apply. High quality production and presentation! Thanks for a great share!!
Wow, Matthew, you've just given me a clear road map to understand components of a melody and how chords (as a starting point) relates to each other. Thank you for sharing your experience.
This pretty much covered music theory in the best way possible
Thank you
If youtube had a ❤️ button, this video deserves it.
Sadly, we only have a like and subscribe button....so i had to settle for those.
You are a good teacher. I am going to stay in your class
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Amazing 😍
Can you do some covers with each level 🤩
Thanks please u made the lesson so simple to me a beginner. I love that
First 13 minutes filled up my ageing brain, but really well explained, thanks!
This sounds like a brilliant starting stage for learning piano, fantastic,im 66 and been swayed about buying an electric piano,now im going to buy a cheap piano.
Wow what a lot of clear lessons in one, at least if you do the "searches" or "homework" given at the end of each of the four levels in the lesson. Brilliant.
Lately i've been trying to learn some piano again, used to play a little as a kid but then guitar and drums took over, and i just program chords in my daw. This was a great reminder of what you can do with those simple triads. Thanks for the lesson Maestro!
0:05 "If you really understand how chords work, you can play pretty much any song you want"
*Tries to play unravel*
It’s in G minor - G A Bb C D Eb F
and it’s:
chord 6 (Eb G Bb)
chord 1 (G Bb D)
chord 7 (F A C)
chord 1 (G Bb D)
Just with arpeggios and a melody (and a randomly loud section) 😊
That makes this great is that you can apply all of this to the different scales. Making it sound different to appeal to emotion which I love so much. Thank you man
this is so helpful! im so thankful that videos like this exist!
I’m glad I could be of some help! 😊
Really good video as always, another dimension to my piano playing. I'm almost 16 and have played piano seriously for about a year and a half, and I'm very happy with my progress. And you've been a part of my progress!
Thank you again👍
Amazing ! Nobody can do it better !
i'm always enjoy piano lesson by this man
Thanks man for your videos.....they really help me playing the piano
No problem! 😊
Thank you so much for the video and the notes!!
Absolutely fantastic lesson, so much great stuff here. Best music theory video i've seen. Nice one.
Brilliant job. Thanks, I don't feel so stupid, I understand 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Best chord patterns video ever, really clear and really simple to understand, great work!
What a great video! Thanks for sharing it.
this was awesome!! thank you very much for this video!
Great infographics!! Lots of work..thanks!!
Thanks for a great lesson
No problem, thanks for the super! 😊
THE GRAEAT TEACHING THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO
wonderful lesson. Thank you. very clear"
Well explained!
Brilliant explanation and essential resource.
That’s a fantastic video. You explained it very well.
Great lesson
great stuff! ty so much!
amazing, thank you.
Just started watching but hot damn, I can tell this is gonna chock-full of some really useful stuff.
I believe Advanced vs. Professional are at best subjective terms and are interchangeable. I know plenty of people who play professionally but play at intermediate/advance level.
Indeed…the entirety of music is subjective really so it is more about; how well can you produce the sound that you want - then it’s trying to remove the limiting factors, either information or technical.
I also happen to know many that play professionals that are limited in either knowledge or technique and therefore can’t produce the range of ideas that they would like to.
The level names don’t really mean anything, it’s just a more fun way of labelling them rather than “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”. 😊
Well explained. Can you make a video on dynamics with independent fingering?
Thank you.
I've been playing by ear all of my life, and it's crazy to see that I learned these concepts naturally without even knowing it! Now I can learn theory and apply it 20x better 👍🏽
amazing bro ly
Thank u❤
Fantastic lesson 💯 also lots of laughs quality meams 😅
Great content.👌🇿🇦
I'm gonna be so happy just at the beginner level 😂
Then what level includes altered chord extensions, chord substitution and modal interchange? level Jazz!!😁
Wow, thanks for all the effort you put into making this video. Did you make all the animations yourself?
No problem! I did make them 😊
@@matticawood Multi-talented!
hi matthew thank you so much. now im one of ur loyal subscribers. i got a question, what if playing in other scales other than major scale? then it wont be M m m M M m diminished,, would be something else, right? are there similar fomula or how to decide... i heard there are tons of weird scales out there.
May i ask what keyboard you’re playing?
Thank you, it is relevant for me to understand the music harmony. But sharp means one semitone up. “One key up” is quite confusing, for instance D is one (white) key up from C.
No problem 😊 The closest key to the right of a C (up 1 in pitch) is the next black key rather than the white key. The reason it’s better to think of it that way is because an E# is the same as playing an F 😊
What keys should we learn
Please react to Tokio Myers!
Bro hasn’t unlocked level 5
Please bro remove the sound effect of transitions 😢
