I've been playing guitar for like 16 years. I'm "self taught" and this video made me realize that I really "Haven't taught myself much" 😂 Always avoided the "theory basics" and "studying" part of guitar. I think it's time to start. I'm 35 now and becoming much more interested in actually knowing what I'm playing. Thanks Rick! You're the man.
+1 and 35 too
Been playing for 14 years and my laziness means I do the equivalent of counting my fingers to find what key.. I was in band class in high school and somehow must have avoided this lesson haha
I m 25, but i have indeed same lack of basic knowledge 😅yeah this is nice
Exact
Same
Story
Kinda makes me hate myself
Same here! Never thought I would start all over again, haha ! 41 btw...
Rick's absolute pitch videos were fascinating. This dude makes good content. Stop demonetizing his videos music publishing companies. He's actually helping your content sales!
@eric nollow Huh? Only if you have debt that you can't cover. Label and publishing companies are about the cash flow. Most businesses are. The conflict is between the art and business for most music companies. Ultimately, money wins out and the art takes a back seat. That said, good businesses look at the big picture and understand the nuance of marketing. Protecting copyright laws are critical for capitalism to succeed. However, you also can't be a tyrant about it otherwise it stifles creativity and ultimately, you're own cash flow.
100% agree. They have no idea how much he is helping their sales.
@eric nollow #1. The majors still own a vast majority of the great catalogs though their massive publishing arms. #2. The labels says indie ... but somehow the majors still have a hand in the labels. Don't get dinner by the labels. #3. While the internet platform has helped artist bypass the Majors ... at least distribution, the labels still have huge influence. Just vet where the major artists have signed onto. Then check what majors the labels they hooked up to.
You are correct though. I think the better artists are independent. However, they are not the ones blocking Rick. It's the damn major publishing companies.
@eric nollow Old school rap is good. The new stuff ... you can't even understand what they are saying. And we need to stop pushing karoke singers. Play an instrument or dance for your life.
Trueeee
The whole scale, mode, chord and arpeggio thing can be extremely intimidating. I teach private lessons and figured this out to help my students feel less intimidated. 1.) Every mode, chord and/or arpeggio comes from a scale, regardless of it's tonality etc. 2) Every scale is (essentially) a variation of the C Major scale. All the sharps and flats are applied to the notes of the C Major scale to create the new scale/key (Circle of Fifths). When you think of every scale as a permutation of a C Major scale and realize every chord is a voicing permutation of the same scale, it gives a simple foundation to build on for the whole amazing world of theory, songwriting and improvisation. Hope that all makes sense to you and helps you in your own personal explorations.
This was quite helpful, thanks!
The natural notes stand out on piano because they're the white keys and the accidentals are the black keys. On guitar, there is no such grand distinction. It's more about the interplay of fretting patterns with the elements of music, which is why I like Beato's approach better.
@@maxsilbert You're welcome, glad to help out where I can too!
@@jstanley011 Piano is so much better for showing this stuff.
Sooo I should learn the c major first?
Just starting the video and I can tell this is what I need. Never stop Rick. The world needs you.
Ionian and Aolean modes are my favorite modes but these "white board" lessons" are a reminder of just how much I have to learn! I love your connotation and your examples and I thank you for your expertise! When coupled with the Beato book, your videos are the building blocks of happiness and professionalism...and I desire both, thanks Mr. Beato!!!!!!
Hey Rick. I’m from India and I just wanted to thank you. I watch almost all the videos that you put out. You’ve helped me develop a better understanding of guitar and music. I’m ever so grateful. Please keep up your amazing work.
Thanks and Regards
Wow, I've been playing bass for 13 years and this answered questions I've had this entire time, Rick is such a great teacher!
I've been playing for 16 years and I have progressed soooo much since finding your channel this lockdown. Thank you so much!
I finally caved and bought your book, and I’m now able to make it through these videos for more than 3 minutes without asking “What is he talking about, and am I stupid?” Which is a good feeling, so thankyou for making this information available.
Rick! I’m a keyboard player. This is phenomenal. You are very clear and plain. You’ve done a great job communicating these concepts!
You are without doubt the best teacher I have ever come across. You have really inspired me to try to transcribe songs by ear using the knowledge I have gained in the last couple of days.

This is BEAUTIFUL..thanks for showing how they sound. You made all those scales come alive. Usually scales sound so clinical and bland.
I've been approaching guitar for a decade by focusing on the classical genre, which is long on technique and reading skills, but short on improvisation and theory. This video and Rick's previous video on the 5 positions of major scales, along with the Beato Book, have provided me with a clear path forward, which is all that a student can ask for from a teacher. Thank you so much.
Good for you Jeff. I bet you're destroying it as I type. Cheers.
@@bens4295 Leonard Cohen, watch out!
Rick knows a lot. Unfortunately he’s very hard to follow because he assumes you know as much as he does.
Great job Rick! I graduated 30 years ago with degrees in Music Composition/Theory and Audio Engineering, . I've been writing music most of my life and produce other bands in my home studio. Now my teenage kids are my band (bass and drums), and I'm teaching them simple music theory to be better players. Because I memorized this stuff years ago; modes, scales, progressions, etc. come easy for me (It's natural, without a conscious effort). But, when I try to explain theory to others, I feel like I need to pull out my old text books for a refresher. I plan to buy a couple copies of you book to share with them and other musicians I am working with. Keep up the channel and the good work!
Master Beato,
I believe this content is the most important foundational key to musical knowledge and beautiful creative freedom. What one does with it is related to talent and hard work.
Thank you Master Beato!
The biggest insight I got this year from Rick is that the semitones in the modes are the most emotionally expressive--are the intervals that emotionally characterize the mode. I've also noticed myself (while writing melodies) that the non-chord tones are typically the most emotionally expressive (especially if played on the beat rather than between chord tones and only in passing).
Semitones are a semitone away from a (triad) chord tone - they want to resolve; non (triad or 7th) chord tones are suspension, extension, and embellishment tones - they add extra color.
your stuff is so incredibly helpful, i'm going to study music when school starts again and i'm preparing myself and you just saved my life!!!
Very informative! This is what all new- intermediate guitarists watch. Actually all guitarists no matter what skill level. Rick's a much better guitar player than I initially thought.
I've used the roman numeral/connecting modes to teach songwriting, soloing over non diatonic chords, modal improv, identifying key, and on and on. Definitely one of if not the most effective "aha moment" scenarios I've seen in a students life, when they understand how it all goes together. Showing the ii,iv,vi major and iv and v minor "tricks" also is a light bulb popper.
You're gonna hit 1M subs this week, and you deserve every one! Congrats!
There is no one better than you! Love the Beato book!
Thank you Rick. Clear, concise, and carefully explained without appearing condescending. Really appreciate you as a resource.
I watched A Looot 0f videos about guitar theory and training! I have to say you are the Master of explaining each step and you explain why! I have been playing guitar for 7 months and when I found your TH-cam channel! I have excelled more in 2 months than the last 7 months! Thank you for your expertise and your step by step instructions! 🎊 guitar 🎸
Rick is the only channel I get full notifications from, and it’s for valuable content like this. Be well and Thank you 🙏
Thanks Rick! Your love for music is infectious.
Rick, You were a good student. To teach is to learn twice. You are excellent at guitar, and drums I might add. I love your channel.
This is so interesting and useful! I've played for 50+ years and never learned to read music, I couldn't do it no matter how much I tried. But the scales make sense to me somehow. I'd need another 50 years to learn the stuff Rick is talking about.
A million subscribers is just around the corner and well deserved 😎👌
I wanted to take a moment to thank Rick Beato and all the people who interacted with my comment about modes/scales/chords etc. I truly appreciate that I had the opportunity in the first place and want to say I appreciate that I actually got to contribute something. I'm the same as you, learning and growing and finding out I'm not all the things I want to be as a musician. Thanks to people like Rick Beato, we now have opportunities to share and grow with each other and feel a sense of accomplishment that it's a blessing to give and not always be on the receiving end. Thank you, thank you all!
Fabulous episode Rick - arguably your best yet IMHO
This time watching I actually got 10 minutes in before I got lost, then came back on board for part of the Circle of 5ths. (I think it's time I cracked open The Book! LOL) Thanks, Rick! And the comments help put things in different perspectives for those of us with learning disabilities.
Really helpful I'm making my way through the Beato book, but having Rick explain is really awesome.
Love these chord progressions/scale videos!
When learning the circle of 5ths I was taught Father Charles Goes Down And Ends Battle. The acronym also works in the other direction for 4ths.
Another very helpful one👍 Thanks Rick!
I started watching this and I was thinking, "yeah I know all this stuff" and let it play in the background while I was doing something else....learned something new. Started watching, learned another new thing...awesome!
Hahahaha - Sharps/Flats clock - I got taught that a long time ago - "Celia's Granny's Dog Ate Every Bloomin Flower" Great mnemonic to remember this!
Hi Rick. Thanks for the vid. I also just watched "I'm getting tired of this"...age vs pitch. I took some lessons at the age of 9 and forgot it. Been playing guitar by ear for 50 years. I enjoy your videos. You've inspired me to learn properly so I can communicate with my daughter, who is becoming a pro musician, and who, I think, also has perfect pitch.
did you find out if she did
Very cool stuff, Rick. Thank you for sharing it with us!
Your teaching makes us learn Thank you for sharing your Knowledge.
Beautiful. Rick you are DA MAN. Thank for your teaching and providing the fundamentals to all!
It always makes my day when I see you've done a music theory live stream. I know a fair amount of theory already -- my first lessons were from a jazz bassist -- but I inevitably learn something from you anyway. And besides, I just love hearing you talk about music.
Finally! This helps so much! Thank you!
I've just found you and I gotta say best lessons on the internet period. you have helped my playing so much thank you Rick.
These are the best! I still have to get my brain to jump around as easily with the fifths of seconds, and things like that. I know it will get there and be more more automatic. Thank you Rick!
Almost to a million subs Rick. Way to go! You have taught me so much, I thank you so
Congrats on 1m subs Rick!!!
Get the Beato Book!!
Best money I’ve ever spent on my musical education.
Congrats for 1M Rick! You deserve it
Rick Beato's TH-cam channel should be integrated into every school's curriculum.
Awesome video as always 👍🏼 Thanks a lot, Rick👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks Rick. I was wondering about this today.
This is one of two channels that I watch that I can’t (or don’t) really apply to my life in any practical way. I’m not a musician. I don’t play an instrument (I played a Trumpet in 7th grade Band). But I love music, so here I am. The other is the 8-Bit Guy channel. I don’t have any vintage computers or video systems, but I like the instructive method of the channel, and the enthusiasm for the genre. I guess I’m saying I appreciate the approach to old tech on that one and music here, and wanted to thank you for what you’re doing. I have a guitar here, which belongs to my son, and thinking of picking it up. Maybe. 🤔
Do it man. It will take a lot of patience to begin with but within a few months your muscle memory will start to kick in etc... I would have to say the first couple of years were some of the most frustrating yet most rewarding times learning an instrument. Stick with it. We all had to start somewhere. Good luck.
Pick it up right now! It's better than medicine. I think it may even be better than a good date. 🙂
Pick up the guitar, have a go! Also, 8-Bit Guy is a great channel too, love it.
@Nodscene no...no he doesn't...lol
This is the video I needed. You answered the question I had since I've been studying music.
Thank you! Perfect timing.
Amazing video. So helpful. If only I knew all of those scales and modes. Practice, practice, practice
He covers this material beautifully in the Beato book - after struggling for years, I finally got it 😎 I don’t consider myself that smart, so if Rick can make it clear to me, your probably golden. In that same vein, one word of caution about the aforementioned Beato Book - if you buy it and take the PDF to Office Depot to get it printed, make sure you do *not* have it printed in color! When I picked up my order, the bill was $312.00! 😳 That said, it looks great in color, so I did buy it and try to read a little bit everyday. My belief is that if I read it everyday for a year, my printing cost drops to only 85 cents per day 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓 Rock on Rick, you’re the man!
I actually found this video extremely helpful, thanks rick!
Thanks for keeping me on track Rick. God bless you and your family.

Dr. Rick Beato. Professor of everything music.
Fascinating content.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
Really well explanation...so very grateful. I'm so on the verge of actually getting all of this!
Thank you, for sharing the basics. I truly appreciate your kind, wisdom. Amazing. Thanks so much!
I had awesome music teachers in college but I would’ve loved to have taken guitar lessons from Prof. Beato :)
What a man this Rick BEATO 😵🥴😀
Impossible to explain the utility level of these short videos! This is how one man can help and change many many many… . . . …many others 👏🤘
Whenever Rick takes out the Dano U2 you know your gonna learn something good..... Great Vid Rick.
Thanks Rick!! Super informative! I’ve learned so much from your videos...
Would love to see you do this again with your NEW IMPROVED production quality.
Yo!! 10/10 for the beard! Thank you for some of the best content on TH-cam.
Agreed 💯 percent. This channel is on my very short "desert island channel list).
You're the best Rick!
Crucial content as always Rick, excellent !
This is exactly the way I teach... good job man!!
Just purchased your PDF book all because of this video. Thanks for the xmas discount as well.
Page 14, already learnt something kinda fundamental, that just hadn't sunk in before. Worth it for that alone, and I got another 450 pages to go...yes, I didn't realise that music notation appears to be written on the chord triads, which makes understanding them easier, and reading sheet music easier, and 7th chords are simply adding the next step in sheet music...
Wow you made proper sense much better watching you write it out and explaining what it all means. Top video.
No substitute for formal training. Rick is a case in point. Incredible understanding of theory, and the neck.
I needed this! Thanks Rick!
I first learned about the circle of 5ths with rick. Great teacher. ❤
This is such cool stuff. I have it saved to a few different playlists, but I still keep it on my "Watch Later" list because I keep coming back to it.
I always end up using extended chords to solo over, not only because they sound great in general, but because you can general switch up modes/scales on the one chord and basically change the dominant note in the chord by the scale you're playing.
I always learn from your videos Rick. Thank you.
Hi Rick! Great content! I'm from Argentina and I always watch your videos.
It would be amazing if you put spanish subtitles on your videos, to share this lessons with a lot of people I know and doesn't speak english
This is great usage for the circle of fifhts. Top notch explanation.
Got you with the one chord improvisation I'm gonna try that out with this three mode and see whether I can use that in my limited vocabulary. Many thanks for your great videos
What a great way to understand modes. Thank you.
Rick i truly love your channel!!! I also come from upstate NY Binghamton NY use to record at pyramid with Alex. I think you were at Ithaca collage when i met you. many many years ago. 15 16 years ago lol keep it up..I"m learning so much from you..!!!!
Did it this time - just bought the book. Cool stuff Rick. Thanks
Best content on you tube... I agree ... Basic theory on a sophisticated style ... Thanks for all the tools given to make us better students ... Music will lead us to be better humans ... ... ...1,000,000 subscribers Soon ... Oh soon the light ..... .....
ThikkBeardato!
Thanks again for all your hard work Rick!!
Just bought your book! I look forward to exploring it!
This is great. Thanks Rick!
You're the man, Rick!
Great theory lesson Sir ..... saved to be revisited many times . Excellent !
You're brilliant Rick! Love this
What a brilliant video! I love it
you know your stuff Man! Appreciate access to your videos
Great video! Thank you for the awesome lesson!
That's restored my understanding of the circle of fifths perfectly. We did this in an after school class once, but I basically forgot how it went. Not any more !!
Thank You Rick now I understand what the circle of 5ths actually stands for! I knew how to use it pretty much for finding the changes in a song but not the why it works. Whoda thunk it only 50 years of playing to get there!
Hey Rick ,I am glad I found you .
