I can only be grateful because those who know this secret don’t teach it. I’m 71 and have been looking for more than 6o years for someone as generous as you. Thank you.
Easy tempo too 👍😁 😁
🥺
Agreed 🌷
Gob bless you for sharing this info
I’ve seen multiple videos that talk about the circle of 5ths but this is the first time I’ve seen the concept of 5ths applied and explained in such a clear way. Thank you!
BRO im saying. i just saw this video and was like "OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH got it."
Helpful hint guys: A Chord is primarily ""3"" alternate notes UP any Scale - on *ANY* instrument (or 4 notes DOWN from any Scale*). EXAMPLE: a C Major or minor Chord is C E ""G"" {the 5th note UP from C}.. F Major Chord is F A "" C""; {the 5th note UP from ""F""}. G Major or minor Chord is G B ""D"" {the 5th note UP or 4 notes DOWN from ""G"" etc. etc.} . Alright gang, Kick-a** !!! 😁👍😁
The term "5th" is literally the a way of measuring distance in terms of tones/sound in regards to music interverals any key you start with is unison LETS SAY C count C as 1 and 4 white notes up is G 4+1=5 perfect 5th or a "5th"
Let me take my time to tell how much I appreciate the way you take your time to point out every little detail. A lot of people are great musician but you are a fantastic teacher , you know how to break it down . That is the key to teaching anything , you have to start from the basic and explain the terminology step by step . Thanks very much , with all these lesson I feel as if I am in college it can not get better than this . One more thing a lot of us are trying to learn something and we just cannot seem to get It right , and the reason is I think is this we are using the incorrect method . That is why there is school , and teachers , instead of us trying to learn everything by ourselves or reinvent the wheel so to speak , we can get advise from others and Dreams will come through achieving your Goals ahead of time . Again I am so greatfull for all of this knowledge that you are imparting , it is becoming clearer that the Universe and God is One , have a great day
Mangold, Your musical concepts are magical and so enjoyable. Richard Mahan 83 yrs.young.
You're an inspiration Richard :) I hope i'm still learning at 83. I know 30 year olds who I think have stopped
In this hard times, learning music is life saving ; as your channel ; I realize I'm here for years now and I never thanked you :/ ...So thank you so much for sharing all of your knowledge here !!
Cheers from France :)
Thanks. I hear you guys are getting it pretty bad in France, so be sure to stay safe!
Looking for this for forty years! God bless this brother! Much ❤️ love 💗!
Another way to teach this using the circle of fifths (C major is my example): Pick any note on the outer part of the circle of fifths (C) - play that major triad with your left hand (C - E - G). That is what key you are in (C major). Look at the very next note (G) that is clockwise on the circle of fifths from the note you originally picked. This major triad (G - B - D) will be played with your right hand. This (G) is your fifth. The circle of fifths is extremely helpful for figuring out many things. :)
Chameleon Sky thanks for this!
Great !
Thanx !
Amazed about the circle of fifth and how it simplifies this lesson.
You are the winner!
This should win the Oscar medal for best intro ever!
Hey, I'm 17 and have been trying jazz piano for a couple years now. Your videos are an amazing medium for me to learn because I can't afford professional lessons yet you have a way of delivering professional thoughts to your viewers without making it too hard to understand. Thanks from a viewer.
The best teachers are your favorite pianists. Transcribe their solos and playing and imitate them. That's how jazz was learned for many decades before it was taught in universities.
Fantastic as always.
Clear teaching with nothing missed!
LOVE THIS!! Music with no tonal center opens new dimensions of music possibilities...
What a great use of the circle of fifths. You teach us how to take a musical journey. While I'm not quite at the level yet, this isn't something that is impossible for a beginner. You are an great teacher for aspiring students.
Very clearly explained and a whole new world opens up for me, I was looking for new ways to make chord progressions, awewsomeee
This was a massive a ha moment for me, thanks so much!!! Really great video.
This has helped so much. Being still in school and only starting playing a few years ago this has helped me find my sound. These types of spacious chords are what I love!
Beautiful! I have long wondered how they achieved that sound. Yet it is so simple. Thanks!
Love this trick. It's a lot of fun to play with.
That is the most beautiful combination of notes I have heard, so peaceful,so ambiguous ,like the harbinger of a summer storm, thank you so much, I am 73 and learning piano after playing guitar since the hippie days
Very well done and fully explained without too much theory. I will work on this until I master it completely. THANK YOU!
The way you explain things is perfect, thank you!
Thank you! I’ve been searching for that sound for years!
I watched this lesson and a slow 'Ah -Ha' crept over my mind. Lots and lots of tonal possibilities from this and lots of ways to add interest to 'standard' progressions. Intros and outros all take on a new possibility. Thank you for this.
Great lesson ... Really opens things up ... Sounds fantastic
Much appreciated 👍
Wow! This opens up a new world to me! ! Thank you!
Wow! I had never though of this. Thank you for sharing!
The difference between you and the other teacher that you are an honest teacher .... God Bless you ...you are a gift from God ...
I have heard this many times in jazz music over the years and never knew what it was. Its great for talk music or intros. But can be used as chords for songs as well. Add meledoies to each chord makes it even better. I love this. I'm going to learn this in ever key.. This is also can be considered a scale mode
Just discovered this gem. Thanks a lot for sharing. I was not that clear about the use of perfect 5th with the left hand to stack chords and now it all makes sense!
Thank you for making this so easy to understand.
I will use this tomorrow at church when we are in free praise. Also plan to workout this on the saxophone.
May God bless you!
Cool. Have a good time trying it out.
WOW! you've so given me TONS of ideas! So simple yet so brilliant! thank you so much!
This sounds like a lot of the music in Breath of the Wild
You have no idea how many people have told me that ... Never played the game myself, though.
thank you, i was thinking the exact same thing
This is the best damn video I've seen on the subject and just leveled me up.
Cool!
Excellent info, very well demonstrated and explained. Thanks for posting!
I have to say one of the few tutorials where I can get new ideas.
Very clear direction and easy to pick up. You sir, a good teacher you are!
Glad it was helpful!
Really excellent teaching of a really useful concept. In just a few minutes, you expanded my musical universe, and I am hugely grateful.
This opned up my mind to a pathway to "IMPROVISATION." Always seems so overwhelming: play this scale over this chord symbol. Pairing specific triads, arpegiating one - that's a path to explore..... thank you
I watch almost all your videos and study them thanks for the great content!
Awesome 👏, thank you for sharing your gift with us! God Bless!
Ahh, this is how Joe Jackson's "Steppin' Out" is put together- very nice video!
Ooooh-really. (Scurries off to check it out)
OMGGGG fabulous simple idea but POWER!!!!! thank you so much!! really appreciate
Thank you, always great great pointers
I’m so blown away! You are awesome 😇
Great lesson! Thanks!
Food for thought? Food for thought, maybe, but I haven't encountered such way of teaching. I think most people are lost at jargon, myself included. You put in a way that's graspable. These chords are so full, I sort of hear symphonies. A lot of melodic ideas arrived ar me while watching this. Love the sound. Loved the way it was presented. Let's see what we can do from here on out. Thx!
Thank you so much. This is truly great to know. ❤️
You just an amazing person! :) thank you so much! Every video is a revelation!
Thanks Natalia. I'm having fun making these videos.
I have been looking for this for very long time and couldn't figure out what it was or how to look for it. I am very appreciative . Thank you so much
Love the sound........... learned something new
This is an awesome tutorial. I really wish to take piano lessons from you. You make everything look very simple yet beautiful when played.
you always describe tricks simply and effective
Excellent, awesome delivery.
Excellent. Many thanks.
Me encantan sus trucos. Son geniales y muy bien explicados. Gracias infinitas.
Well done and very clear. Thank you.
This is a REAL gamechanger for me. They sound SO beautiful. Reminding me of Sakamoto….
Set a great explanation on an awesome technique. never explained better
This is awesome !
I had never met this.
So helpful!!
Thank you !!
Stopped playing the piano for a while, so this is great stuff to get my teeth back into the keys. I can think of multiple ways to use this. Very nice lesson! Keep it up!
Wonderful video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge😊
Thanks
Great lesson.
Please continue to share your knowledge.
Be blessed.
I intend to do so!
Thank you for this exercise. It's definitely one of those things that demystifies the keyboard. 😎😊
I hear this a lot in the Pentecostal church but no-one will teach it. My wandering is over!!! Thank you so much!
Yes very well said for a beginner in chord progression!
So bloody simple but very useful. thanks for this, this will influence my composing straight away...
Awesome lesson! Will try it out! Thanks!
And I am glad you did not move Miru as he sleeps. Thank you this is in my Watch Later Playlist. I watch it as a replay to learn. Have a great day sir.
Very cool. Can’t wait to get to the piano in the morning. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, THANK you! I've heard chords like this so many times and wasn't sure how to make them.
Excellent lesson in modern harmony for music keyboardist'
Thank you so much for this excellent video. Very helpful.
Many, many thanks. This was insightful
Excellent explanation - thanks.
Your lesson is wonderfull and great. thank you so much... In deed you have brought me new idears.
Loved this video. 😊 Very helpful.
这个技巧非常棒!谢谢分享。THANKS!
Just had to sign in to "like" this super video. Very good instructional tool and your English is excellent. Such a simple idea, yet as is often the case, quite complex to become fluent at, I look forward to practcing this chord structure. Thanks for such an interesting and useful contribution.
Great stuff! Thanks.
Informative and well done. Thank you.
thank you very much! your lessons are great and very very helpful! :)
Interesting! Thank you very much!
Thanks !!!! Extremely useful!!!!
Muito bom! Já vi esses truques em diferentes canais do TH-cam, mas não ficou tão claro pra mim como aplicá-los, como nesta aula. Parábens. Espero que continue dividindo seus conhecimentos conosco.
Sounds great can't with to learn this. 4th modulation in the left really ad to the colors of the sound. Thanks for sharing this exercise!@
Thank you so much, I am excited to play around with this
This is an amazing teaching. The visual symmetry is also interesting.
Good way to teach this concept thank you. End result of each chord = a Major 9 chord. I'm a guitarist but this looks like fun so I'm going to sit down at the piano and give this a go. Thanks
I hope the 4 people who disliked this video have something better in this life to offer. Awesome tutorial my brother keep it up, you have imparted me a lot. God bless you
Don't worry about the dislikes. Even if I upload a video of 3 dancing kittens curing cancer there will still be dislikes. That's the way some people are.
MangoldProject you are right sir.
Yeah, what MangoldProject said 🙂
I hope the 137 people who disliked study a little bit of basic music theory before they come back to this video and like it
MangoldProject lol,true story.
Amazing. Thank u forever
Ur a very good teacher... Love u sir
That sounded so cool. I'm gonna start experimenting with this.
Awesome tutorial thankyou 😎👍
Geniál! Eres muy buen profesor!
So cool! Now I have to experiment with stacking minors too! Thank you for showing us this.
This is a gamechanger for me. They sound SO beautiful. Reminding me of Sakamoto….
Stumbled across this it is awesome stuff!
great video, thanks!
God bless you sir.
Great job sir.
Love this because I love maj7 Chords. This concept makes everything sound fuller when i have to play without a band
