Mr. Mento!!! this video helped me so much🥹 I've been playing piano for a while now (self-taught) but never really learned how to read sheet music, and I tried learning with multiple youtube videos and I sometimes got confused. but watching this video made me not only truly know the basics but I also had fun learning them + in a memorable way. thank you so much! you helped me and so many others🫶🏽
I’m so happy this was helpful, thank you so much and good luck on your musical journey!!
@@thementozone So helpful for me too... Just like Danielle above, im a self taught as well, I did practice a lot through by myself through youtube videos and all, and never really know how to read sheet music, and alas!! I can do all the drills in the video in my first try(yess bassically after learning from the first part of the video)
Very true. It's really helped me too.
@@thementozoneWow!
😂t
This is what happens when you meet someone who not only knows what he is talking about, but can also convey to others is a very simple and intuitive way something that, taught incorrectly, can become a nightmare! I started learning keyboard this week and this video dropped my jaw to the ground! Awesome.
Someone said if you cant explain something to a 10 year old, you havent understood it yet
Thank you so much! I’m so happy this was a useful resource to you
It’s truly helpful 😊
@@thementozone ive watched many vids on counting music i was left with more question, but your video is so amazing youve simplfied precise enough to ingest everything in i love th eactive exercises too
Thank you so much for saying what I wanted to convey! ❤ This is the best basic rhythm course I've found so far. Best 8 minutes of my life. :)
From a person who never understood how to count rhythms like this, thank you so much!
Hi all! Thank you so much for finding this video. As a small town music teacher who made these for fun during the pandemic, I’m blown away by how helpful this one in particular seems to be for people, and I am so grateful for your support. I don’t have a lot of time to make videos being a teacher and all, but please let me know what else you’d like to see on this channel, and I’ll try to get to it when I can :) mahalo!
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE!!! I have been trying to learn to read music for more years than I care to admit! (Flute/tin whistle - I can play when I hear someone else play a piece)This was the first little piece that I really understood!!! There as SO MANY MORE notes just DYING to be explained in this way!!! You're so clear and fun to listen to!!! Please consider doing more of these! THANK YOU! Bree
This vdo is very fun.
Thank you ❤

I love this video very much. for so many years, I never understood this thing right from my primary days till today. But now i think I'm heading somewhere. I can boldly say I've found the right thing. My only problem was i think the video was too fast. but its okay. may be your next videos should be slower than this. Can you help with reading these things on the bass clef?
Hi Mr. Mento, I play guitar, drum and piano but I don't know how to read notes. It is alway difficult for me. Now I can see it is easy to learn from you because you know how to teach people. Thank you so much. Wonderful video
Me too
Me too!
@@stanphiri2536Same
Me too
I'm a music student and hv difficulty in making my own melody please can you help me😅😅😅😢
After watching this, I've come to the conclusion that I'm stupid.
You're not stupid, you just have to push yourself. 24 hours of pushing myself. I now understand please don't underestimate yourself. I have more faith in you then you do yourself
You and me bro
Your not stupid, this is just highly complex knowledge that's it, if you keep going to understand you will understand some people process faster I promised then once you do understand you will realize what im saying. Nothing Is to difficult for us our perception shows us difficulties, what does our perception know Nothing half the time it gets us in trouble forget your perception. Listen to yourself deep inside that's your conscience it's knows best
Bro same
Attention all people. This is a public person service announcement. None of you are stupid, you're not. Please quit calling yourself that This field is quite cumbersome to comprehend. Not everybody will pick it up like that. Everybody please don't call yourself stupid please You just have to stand app more time with it. Everybody has their own intake process please don't stop calling yourselves stupid please
The way I've struggled to understand sheet music since I was 7 but learned how to read it in a matter of 8 minutes with this video is insane to me. Thank you sooo much
I am 32 years old and thought I was completely without rhythm. This video taught me there might be some hope yet!
My recorder class LOVED this video!! You helped get them keep a beat in no time. So clear, concise and fun!
The world needs more teachers like you. Please continue to make more of your good teaching videos! The world needs you. Thank you!
Im so proud of myself omg 😭 thanks for teaching me the basics dude!
i’m joining band as a junior and know JACK about anything. usually youtube videos i watch i tend to get bored with but this keeps me really engaged.
Waitt, I laughed when brett popped out 😂
Your comment appeared when Brett popped out 😂😂😂
Wow! Great editing job and I really appreciate your humor. The world needs more teachers like you.
I’m a little rusty and this was a great refresher for rhythms and counting! I’m playing in an ensemble again and learning to count rhythms in music after years of not playing is a challenge.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this video! It was actually fun to practice with the the background music that match the pulses. I was moving my head to the beat without realizing, which helped me count.
Keep the great job!
Well it was quite hard fir a 72 year old but still interested with music. Thanks.
My child (8yrs) is learning to read notes and rest in school during music class and she enjoyed your video. She especially loved the “drill time”
Thank you
I knew absolutely nothing about rhythim but needed to know this time signature of 4/4 as it is the focus of most of the class. Thanks for the helpful, easy introduction into this.
I have been relearning music after over 20 years of not playing, and getting the hang of counting beats and rhythm has been a struggle. This was an immensely helpful breakdown and exercise! Thank you!
Im pursuing Theological studies and by next year I'll start learning music but i don't even have any basic knowledge about music,yet i learned today through this channel ,some basic notes♥️.. Thank you so much
I'm sure this is very helpful for someone like me who is keen on learning the language of music. Thank you sir
this guy teaches better than my music teacher fr
Wow!! This is so helpful and you make it so much easier for me to understand how to read music… I will definitely be watching more of your videos! Thank you for sharing them!!!🥰👏🏼👏🏼
I am a super skeptic, who never accepts anything easily. But this video man, this is the standard that everyone should follow. Such an amazing lesson, in a very interactive way, no nonsense just pure mentoring. Kudos to your effort. You got one more subscriber. ❤️
I am Thrilled that you are doing this! I know how to read. But, too many now don't. I wish you much success! 🕯️
I have been reading music for years as an amateur choral singer but NEVER got a true grip on timings. This video is a REVELATION! Thank you, thank you.
Excellent. I have been struggling with rhythm for years. Nobody has ever taught me that. Now i start to understand. Many thanks:
I was really struggling to put the rhythm together. But after watching this video, it made sense and I even had fun!! Thank you so much!
Wow! At last, someone who can actually teach …and make brilliant videos. Rare indeed.
Been playing by ear for 40 years, I can play most things after one listen, but only this week have decided to finally learn reading music, this video was really helpful. Thank you.
The helpful explanations, examples, exercises, visuals, and humor. *Chef's kiss* perfecto!
Very basic elementary tutor for beginners like me. Excellent delivery on the subject of Time signature. Now I have an idea how it works. 👍
This is so helpful and fun to watch! A great way to teach kids music theory! Please keep up the good work!
Thks a Million for this Video.Not all teachers are truely good in teaching. You are blessed with the Grace of God in this topic
Thanks for sharing, so very helpful to me cause I'm 1year in choir/Cantor but I don't know how to read notes .I'm so grateful while I'm scrolling in youtube i found this video now I can practice all by myself following this video.
Could you please make more videos explaining rhythm? I think this is the best video I’ve come across, thank you!
Wow, this video is absolutely fantastic! The content is so engaging and informative, and the production quality is top-notch. I'm seriously impressed by the effort and creativity that went into making this. Kudos to the entire team involved! You've really raised the bar with this one. Can't wait to see what you come up with next. Keep up the incredible work! 💯👏
This video was ungodly amounts of fun. Pure joy
There are thousands of thousands of TH-cam videos about this and this one was the only one I understood! Thanks for training us in the best way ❤❤
This is great, if the Rhythms were taught like this before, I would have learned better. Great lesson!
Omg, this whole lesson was so in rhythm! Amazingly creative! ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Tysm for this video! Just started learning guitar and figured I ought to try and read sheet music as well. This is super helpful and way more digestible than most other music videos I've seen. Thank you!
I’ve been in bands and I’ve been in music on and off since I was a child, and somehow you made this more simple for my neurodivergent ass to understand more than anyone ever did. Thank you.
very fun and covers alot quickly! ive just finished my GCSE music exam and going onto donut for a level since I know I got a 9 but I need to step up and finally learn how to sight read and sight sing, so thank you for your very digestible video, it gives me the confidence that I will be able to sight read well by the end of the holiday ❤
This was very helpful👍😊 The way you present it makes easier to understand. Thank you👍
You’re an A1 music teacher.
Love the way you are explained everything.
Please keep your videos this your way of teaching music.
Blessings.
I have been looking for this long ago, I finally met this today. Thanks you are a good teacher
I loved it, I'll save this video and practice every day. I hope you'll make some more like this.
Brilliant tutorial! I just can’t do it. But nothing comes naturally without practice. Thanks so much for this.
Excellent! Got tongue-tied several times but unraveled it and carried on. Great teaching!
A terrific learning tool. Thank you so much. This tool will help me do a better job at signing hymns at church services.
You did a GREAT job! Your presentation was clearly explained with really good examples. I just subbed, I look forward to more great examples like this one!
I agree 👍
as someone who struggles rhythm , this actually helped me.. thank you so much
This guy is crazy, this lesson makes me(newbie) understand quickly.
Thanks for sharing Mento, success!
His a good teacher. I Understand so quickly....I will subscribe and write down those rhythms.
I am a beginner, so the tutorisl came in very handy. Brilliant snd super explanation. Keep it up. Thank u Sir.
Brilliant, I loved it, it’s a great music reading education, thank you. 🎶🎸🎷🎹😃
This was super helpful!!! I was struggling to understand where I was going wrong on SimplyPiano. Loved the clear explanation and exercises
Hi Mento, I just found your piano lesson to help people beginners how to count basic rhythms very helpful. I will continue watching and hope you safe time going to put next lesson we can follow. Thank you so much
This is really helpful! Thank you👍
This is exactly the video I needed for my 4th and 5th grade recorders!!
So happy you were able to use it in your classroom :) !
@@thementozone Please sir make make more video on this music theory series including topics like eighth note, sixteenth note, triplets etc. Much needed seies
excellent video, you know its good when 2 years later people are still being helped by it. You're doing good work, buddy!
Best teaching and method ive ever seen. Fantastic. Youre gifted!
It was really helpful for me specifically, because this is the second month of my college going on, and I'm getting difficulty with vocal theory a lot.
Very nice review for Music Theory Class. Thanks!
Your explanation makes
it simple. Thanks a lot.
Mr. Mento!!! this video was so fantastic and engaging, youre a genious
this is so well made
This is such an amazing video! Makes me sad there's no advanced rhythms version of this
Regardless the extending the counting exercise is a life saver
This was SO helpful, well explained and good learning sections. Thank you so much!
Damn 2 church music seminars could not quite teach me how to read notes and now i stumble upon this videos and i now know ...i love it 😃😃😃
Thanks for these. Please do the other time signatures and odd times. Thanks
How about all eighth notes with a few sixteenth notes tied with them 😈 (nah that rhythm is hard)
Working on it! Though it will probably take 20 or so of these videos until the rhythms are challenging to you!
I love how twoset is in this video. Thanks for teaching Mr. Mento!!
Simply brilliant, knowing and conveying.
Very good video! Well explained... Background 🎵🎶🎵🎶 music annoying! Best without it! Just do the lessons!!!
The background music is good because it actually teaches you how to maintain focus while an alternative rhythm is going on around you. You’ll almost never get a piece where everyone is playing the exact same rhythm for the whole piece. Even if you’re playing a solo, accompaniment will play a different rhythm. I know it’s hard but you’ll get it with practice! -I’m a musician who’s been playing for 20 years btw
Wow! Thank you so much. One of the best ,I have come accrosed so far. Simple to understand
Never learned music but played it for 30+ years - sheet music itself remained a mystery as I play from chord charts instead. Great start thanks. Need to rest my geriatric brain now.
This has been a good reminder for me. I knew the notes for quite a while but had forgotten the rests. Thank!
Best teacher ever!!!❤🎉 God bless you!
Love it first time playing drums!
First time learning these rhythm. Your tutorial is making it easy for me
I love the teaching style of teaching and allowing us to practice! Great immersive teaching which has helped me to learn and impute! Learning by doing is great! Great teaching, teacher!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤.....
Greetings from France ❤. I had fun watching and repeating with you. Great and EXCELLENT for the Oldies I am 72, not just for kids. Goodness I loved it. Its past midnite here but I fell upon this video just when I was about to turn off my phone. I really had fun and enjoyed EVERY SECOND of your joyful video. SUBSCRIBED ❤❤❤. Thanks for sharing caring and making me SMILE just before going to bed. A big hug. 👍👍👍🏆🏆🏆🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹
Muchas gracias amigo, you took the mystery of music away from my head.
That was really one of the best videos to learn the basics thanks! I will check up your other videos
I’m trying to learn rhythm using Rhythm Trainer iOS app. There are four type of exercises for each lesson. 3rd exercise is detection and which rhythm will be played and you have to carefully listen and remember it then tap that remembered rhythm when asked. I was struggling in this exercise very much because I didn’t know how to remember exactly. It became very much difficult because I had to count 1,2,3,4 also and I had to remember also what happened every second so mind was getting confused what and how to remember. This nomenclature of silent beats and half and full notes really helped me to get started. Thank you very much. It’s very helpful trick for the mind to remember rhythm while counting. ❤ Keep up the good work.
As a beginner piano player this is very helpful. Now to understand the timing of faster notes like eighths and sixteenths.
You sir, are the definition of a good teacher.
this was so helpful!! i havent even gotten a drum kit yet but i was reviewing how to do it to determine whether i should buy one. I stumbled across this and you made it look so easy. I've now decided i'm going to buy a drumkit. thank you so much :))
Thanks for the lucid explanation!! Very helpful.
Without doubt the best video ever explaining rhythm, pure genius, thank you.
The most helpful video in TH-cam for learning beats❤
The best teaching after many utube beginner class on music, thank to rescue my learning on music.
This was really fun! It was great to refresh the basics. Thank you bro!
Now I need to slap bass!
That gave me a a simple easy way to understand basic song reading. THANK YOU SO MUCH
This is the best video I've found explaining this... Amazing I'm super impressed
Finally, I understand it. Thank you for helping. You did such a great job.
This is so good
I've never got around to understanding notes counting well. This helped me so much!
Thanks!!!
