You sir are an absolute genius!!! I am in awe of your teachings here and feel so grateful to have just learned in 25 minutes what I've found impossible to get my head around. I cannot explain how much you have given me after watching and taking notes of this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💝
thankyou. I'm gonna start on Monday . I'm 66yrs old , retired and bored. I had much success teaching my 5yr old grandson since he was 2yrs old and he still luvs to come over and learn. he is in kindergarden now so I will let them do the teaching and him and I will pic it up in June 2023 if he wants
I am a self taught keyboard player and have gain a tremendous amount of knowledge through videos like this. I have heard the circle of 5th explained a number of times, and each time I learned a bit more. But this is the first time ,I can honestly say ,that it was explained so thoroughly, so comprehensively by his fantastic teaching ability, that I can go to sleep now knowing the value of the Circle of 5th. Thank You.

I just want to endorse all that you've said. Myself as a former music teacher and professional musician, it cannot be stressed how important this information is. Fortunately for me, when I was a child, my piano teacher drilled all of this information into me pretty thoroughly. On the practical side and as an organist, I was invited to perform with a dance orchestra years ago but there was no music for me to follow plus many of the pieces used were unfamiliar to me. I was sitting close to the pianist and I simply asked him what key each piece or song was in. From there, even if I had no idea of the tune, I could play a meaningful accompaniment which seemed to surprise many other people. Knowledge of the Circle of Fifths was so helpful plus a knowledge of primary or principal chords. The rest of it was all very predictable because most music follows fairly standard guidelines. If you, as a reader, are an early learner, start to memorise the Circle of Fifths and it will stand you in very good stead for your musical future. When I was teaching (I'm now 76 and now retired) I also gave my students a simple way of remembering the order of sharps which was, "Fry's Chorcolates Give Delight After Every Bite". The flats are the same letters in reverse or you can remember the word BEAD - then add GCF. There are many ways of making the order stick in the memory and that's just one. If by chance, you play Piano Accordion, the bass buttons are arranged in the same order.
Wow, you are a really great teacher. I have been taught the circle of fifths before. I thought relearning it would be difficult to follow, but you made it so understandable. Thanks!
That’s great. Most kind. Have a look at www.mmcourses.co.uk for access to 24 online courses, individual tuition, and a fabulous opportunity to join Music Matters Maestros.

What an excellent video. The circle of 5ths is such an important cornerstone in musical understanding and this is the best explanation I have seen of it, especially the way in which it demonstrates the link to the relative minor keys and key signatures. Well worth a watch whether you are new to music or an experienced player.
help me understand. this vid explains so well but i just feel so dumb and don't get it.. i know i will have a sort of ahh hahhhh moment but i just can't get it lmao!!!
@@MusicMattersGB Dear Gareth , I have lately thought to learn piano because I admire it, as usual looking for a new challenge from time to time I love music and enjoy listening to musical instrument but I haven't played one . How long does it take to lear the music theory from grade 1 to 8 , my disadvantage is age, I am 66, retired and quite healthy. Is my age a hinderance to go for this hobby. Thank you.
Your age is certainly not a hindrance. Go for it! The Grade 1-8 course is comprehensive but it moves step by step so it will keep you busy but you’ll easily follow it.
I am a guitar player. But i wrote some song and want to write it down on paper. So i search to learn how to write music and got hooked in to watching your videos. Thank you sir! You are a greate teacher.
Thank you for your kind comments. I'm glad the films are helpful. You can download more at www.mmcourses.co.uk and I offer Skype teaching if you want any help with your songs or with theory knowledge. Enjoy....!

After 10yrs trying to understand the circle of fifth today @5am I came across this tutorial and my goodness have understood everything about the circle of fifth.may God bless you sir .
I cannot express how much you have helped me. I used to think that learning theory was a waste of time and would focus mostly on building up my technique. But not anymore (thanks to your epic explanations). The theory I've learnt from you and my music teacher has helped me bring another layer of depth to my violin, piano and guitar playing and even try my hand at composing. Most people who try teaching (anything really) just show off and try to convince everyone of how good they are in their chosen profession. But you never do that. You are humble and a delight to watch. THANK YOU so very much for what you do. My kindest regards to you, my dear sir.
Thank you very much. I have been checking online tutorials about the circle of fifths for about 10 years now. This is the first video I've come across where it is explained clearly and simple. My ten year old son and I just watched your video, and we agree that You are a great teacher!!!
This is the best, most comprehensive, easy to understand circle of fifths video on the internet! Beautifully and clearly presented. Well done and Thank you!
Finally someone made every principle and pattern clear; all the other Circle of Fifths explanatory videos and web sites can be taken down. You've reduced the entire problem to only remembering four things : 7th interval of the key for sharps, fourth for flats, each sharp or flat then determines the same key falling farther down in the circle, and relative minor is a third interval lower than the corresponding major. And you've explained why some describe the flat side as intervals of fifths, while others describe it as intervals of fourths. I regularly tell young people that all education is auto-didactic; teachers don't really teach anything, they provide structure for self-teaching. Sir, you have proven me wrong.
That’s very generous of you. I think sometimes it’s just helpful to be clear about essential facts and principles. See much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk
Love your teaching style, and having struggled with this from reading books, I finally understand it🙏. This is going to help me tremendously in my playing, and making sense of chords and scales 👍
This is absolutely awesome teaching! I have been struggling to understand The Circle of Fifths and at least now it is starting to make some sense rather than being totally confusing. Thank you so much!
I made a very conscious effort to learn and understand the circle of fifths. I finally have got it and it's a very powerful tool. As a songwriter who didn't know my keys, I often hunted and pecked around the keyboard to find chords and melodies that sounded good together. Now I have a roadmap which tells me exactly how to find them. Also, I never knew how to transpose. The circle makes it easy. This is the best, most useful bit of music theory I've found.
This is so clear, and so fascinating! I cannot get over how many correlations there are within the Circle of Fifths! The patterns, the maths that check out... It's incredible! Thank you so much for this, I subscribed and I'm looking forward to watching other videos from you :D 🤩💖

Thank you so much! I have been playing and composing music for decades and I have some weak areas due to my impatience. I just want to move on to making music! But that caused me to jump over getting good theoretical grounding in those areas. I am at a point where I am identifying those weak areas and strengthening them. The circle of fifths has always mystified me but you helped me demystify it so that I can better use it as a composition tool. I am a teacher at heart, regardless of the subject. Your approach to teaching inspires me deeply. Again, THANK YOU!

I've been in college for music for almost 4 years, and once you started explaining the order of sharps I had the biggest lightbulb moment! All this time, I knew the order of sharps and flats, but I had no idea why they had to be in that order! Thank YoU, aAh!! 😂
Sir, I am really grateful to you, you taught very nice, I had many confusion for many many years, after your teaching everything is very very clear to me. Thank you Sir.
What a wonderful, simple and inspiring way to explain the circle of 5ths. I had lost hope in ever understanding it, here you have torn down everything in white. Thank you Mwalimu and may the good Lord bless the work of your hands
I gotta say that you're by far the best one who explained the circle of fifth, you go slowly over each key, explains it clearly before moving on to the next. Great video 👍
So simple way he explained it all Why on earth my teacher had no idea or no interest We had different teachers every class no wonder we learnt nothing. Sad so sad As I so wanted do music my dad taught me more any music teacher l had.. Thanks for you time explaining. 👍
Been a musician for almost 30 years and I’ve never heard a clearer, more thorough or more practical explanation of the CO5 than in this video. Awesome.
This was just amazing! Thank you so much for putting up this video! Well, so far, all of the videos in this channel that I've watched are excellent and very clear! I'm just a music lover that has very recently become quite interested in understanding music theory, so my knowledge is quite patchy, so I'm gladly surprised how easily I understood the circle of 5ths from this video! Up until yesterday it was a completely mysterious topic to me! I have a question, and I'm aware it's probably just because I don't know enough. I was a bit confused about the C# scale having all flats. Why is the note one semitone down from C# called B# and not C? I do understand that the note in the stave is a B, so it must be a B#. But the key in the keyboard is the same as C. I guess my question is whether they are truly the exact same note, or if they're only the same note on a piano/keyboard, but can be played different in another instrument or with a different tuning? Is this somehow related to different tuning systems, like just intonation vs. 12-tone equal temperament? I'm sorry if this is a basic question and / or if my terminology is off. As I said, all this is fairly new to me :) Once again, thank you for this amazing channel and the great work you do!
See our video on why B# and C are the same note but are interchangeable according to which key one is in.

I've been in college for music for almost 4 years, and once you started explaining the order of sharps I had the biggest lightbulb moment! All this time, I knew the order of sharps and flats, but I had no idea why they had to be in that order! Thank YoU, aAh!! 😂

This was just amazing! Thank you so much for putting up this video! Well, so far, all of the videos in this channel that I've watched are excellent and very clear!
I'm just a music lover that has very recently become quite interested in understanding music theory, so my knowledge is quite patchy, so I'm gladly surprised how easily I understood the circle of 5ths from this video! Up until yesterday it was a completely mysterious topic to me!
I have a question, and I'm aware it's probably just because I don't know enough. I was a bit confused about the C# scale having all flats. Why is the note one semitone down from C# called B# and not C? I do understand that the note in the stave is a B, so it must be a B#. But the key in the keyboard is the same as C. I guess my question is whether they are truly the exact same note, or if they're only the same note on a piano/keyboard, but can be played different in another instrument or with a different tuning? Is this somehow related to different tuning systems, like just intonation vs. 12-tone equal temperament?
I'm sorry if this is a basic question and / or if my terminology is off. As I said, all this is fairly new to me :)
Once again, thank you for this amazing channel and the great work you do!
See our video on why B# and C are the same note but are interchangeable according to which key one is in.
