      Btw, I like to think of the half diminished seventh as a minor 7 b5 chord. It cancelled a lot of mental confusion for me when learning this stuff all those years ago. Also, I like the terms tension and release, as resolution to or resolving back to the actual tonic isn’t always the case.

    Gracie - thank you. I am not much of a commenter, sorry about that! I have been playing guitar for 30 years, and recently moved to the baritone uke due to arthritic thumbs. I can play a lot of stuff, but it’s always been tricks and licks that I have memorized. Knowing things worked but not really understanding why they worked. There have been several instructors I have turned to in order to understand theory. You are the first I have followed that managed to get through to me. You are a natural teacher, I enjoy your style. Thank you so much!

      @@davedemaray2870​​⁠No. A iim, 2 minor chord, in a iim-V-I, is absolutely NOT the V of V (the 5 of 5, or a secondary dominant).
      It is not a Dominant chord, it is a minor chord that just has the same root note. If it did happen to be a Dominant chord, then it would be the V of V and a secondary Dominant. Ok?

      You are out of my league. I feel the V-I resolution. I was introduced to the circle of fifths through a repeating pattern of V-1 cascades. It sounded magical the way my teacher played it, that was their way of teaching it, my fingers just resolve themselves through muscle memory in whatever key I'm in. I play beyond grade X, but now going back 50 years to learn theory in order to better communicate within a group. I am pretty sure I am incomprehensible in words, but anyways, thank you. I never thought to zip around non standard chording freely chasing an idea, like over exaggerating and stacking turnarounds into semi elaborate tinklings.

    I have been watching tutorials for over 6 years now on and off. Intervals and 7th chords have always confused me and made me stop every time I start over because no one explains them in a simple manner. I just don't know how to express it, but you are a true blessing giving away all of this experience in the the simplest way possible. You truly deserve more viewership and revenue from what you're presenting here. You're a treasure. Thank you so much Gracie!

    I wish I had subbed to your You Tube channel 60 years ago. I might have paid more attention in music classes and learned how to sing and play an instrument.
    As it was, my singing voice made people laugh, so I became the class clown.
    As I'm learning the piano, I am writing in my Agenda "Doesn't play well with others". Cuz I've never played a song with someone else, nor blended my voice with someone else. What an essential part of the human existence. So I'm trying now. It's never too late.
    Your videos have really been great for making progress in music theory. You're a magician with the Whiteboard. Merci beaucoup.

    At 8:04 you mention tritones having been covered within your intervals series. I think I watched each video in that series, but the first (?) mention of tritones I could find was in Part 6, the songs to help remember ascending intervals. That video wasn’t really intended to explain the types of intervals, but rather to learn to recognize them by ear. You did give an example of an augmented 4th in one of the earlier vids (Part 2 or 3), but I couldn’t find mention of tritones per se. But I might well have just missed it somewhere.
    Anyway, thank you so much for being my (awesome) music professor!

    Why is it called the "Dominant" 7th chord? ( e.g: C7 )
    Because it's named after when you should use it.
    This chord is typically used for the dominant(V)
    [ V7 - Imaj7 ] = [ D7 - Gmaj7 ]
    ( D7 = D F# A C/ C is in our key of G )
    the notes resolve NICELY, (A)2 - (G)1 and (C)4 - (B)3
    The Dominant 7th isn't just a chord that fufills a dominant
    harmonic function. It is the MOST dominant feeling you can get.
    The King of Dominants!!
    *D7 - G also feels strong! ( and has contrary motion! )
