5 gold stars for this one! I'm very comfortable with the circle of 5ths. My problem is getting my aging fingers to move quickly from one chord to another. I think this will be a fun way to develop some fluency. Many thanks!
Exhausting, I got from C to B, then I broke down and did three keys in minor and broke down again. This is fantastic music gymnastics, I will integrate it in my daily routine.
Best exercise ever! Do you think you can make another tutorial as a jazz variation of it just by shifting the bass line a third or a fifth below so that the same triads become sevenths or ninth chords? I could do it myself but I am not sure of the result 😊
Thank you for your support! This video is the first in a series. I had originally planned to go in both directions on the circle of fifths, but I was concerned that the video would end up being too long. I plan to do a follow up where we go around the circle of fifths counterclockwise (C - F - Bb- Eb - etc.).
I think the second part where harmonic and natural minors are used in the same scale are too confusing. Recomend playing major and minor triads in all keys followed by all dominant 7ths, then diminished going 4 octaves up and down. This will teach the circle of 5ths (4ths) in ways most commonly used.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand how the second part can be confusing. Your practice suggestions are really helpful, and I’ll definitely consider incorporating them in a future video. It's helpful to come back to concepts like this.
Thank you for the lesson but I don't understand how those F (2rd inversion), Em (2rd inversion), Am (1nd inversion), Dm (2rd inversion), G(1nd inversion), C(2rd inversion) are called "all in root position"? It's really confusing...
If you just look at the right hand, you'll see that the F chord in bar 1 is in 2nd inversion, the Em chord is also in 2nd inversion, the Am chord is in first inversion, and so on. When you add in the bass notes, these are all the roots. so this makes the entire chord (both hands) in root position. So the voicing of these chords is "spaced out" and the root is doubled.
@@athomewithmusic8698 Thank you for cleared that up, I thought you were saying it about right hand only... It was confusing because I saw inversions of chords and yet I also knew you just can't be wrong about this either... so I just have to ask... what did you mean. Anyway, thank you again and may God bless you and your loved ones.
I know it can be tricky, but if you watch carefully, you can figure it out. These exercises are designed to train your ear as well as your fingers. I hope you'll stick with it, I believe it's worth the effort.
these are the types of lessons iam longing for
I plan to do more like this. Stay tuned! Thanks for watching.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that you’re finding the content useful. Happy practicing!
Thanks lot for your good guidance..its make me better.❤
You're welcome 😊
Thanks for the exercise, trying it now.
I'm glad you're giving it a try! Let me know how it goes.
Exhausting, I got from C to B, then I broke down and did three keys in minor and broke down again. This is fantastic music gymnastics, I will integrate it in my daily routine.
Getting to the other side of the circle of fifths as you cross from B to Gb feels like the climbing the K2. I am loving it.
@@athomewithmusic8698 Today I completed my first round in the major landscape today after one week of exercising! 🎉.
Congratulations!

I'm planning to do another version of this exercise using 7th chords, and maybe even 9th chords. Still working that one out!
@@athomewithmusic8698 Thanks for all you do to help your subscribers!
Could we have more of these theory exercises? ❤ This is much more usefull for me than mechanical exercises. How about the other direction for example?

@@MrYuryZ thanks for asking I was mad confused lol
@@houseofgraceworship You're most welcome! Cheers!
Ear training is the best investments to learn , if you control this , everything makes it easyer.
I'm a big believer in ear training as well as finger training!
So called ear training is usually a standard euphemism for those who have little technical proficiency.
Without the keys, hard to follow..
