The good news: I can sightread perfectly. The bad news: pretty much everything else (PS: for the sightread event, should have thrown in some notes in bass clef)
Clicking in Notes on a clef is not sight reading. Sight reading is performing a piece of previously unread piece of music on an instrument. Like playing a Mozart sonata on keyboard all the way through in time, in the correct tempo, with the correct expressions as if you are performing it at a concert although it is the first time you are playing it.
The comments you make about dim/aug chords are very helpful to me, thanks. I'm not as confident as I would like to be in differentiating between them, but what you say about diminished chords feeling more directional, like they need to go somewhere, is actually really helpful to me. And you make a similar point about P4 as opposed to P5 - thinking of it as a sus4 sound that want to resolve down. In both these cases, the general advice of thinking about the directional movement of what I'm hearing, of where it wants to move to, is a fantastic little piece of advice, thanks.
dim and aug are questions. They require solution- an answer. If we are talking the first position- dim wants to resolve DOWN. Aug is usually melodic "decoration". In literature it is usually chromatic up movement ant they need to resolve up. Just imagine solution and it should be clear to you. As long as we are talking the cluster of thirds (or "first position"... can't remember the exact expression in English atm). Out of musical context- for the purpose of exercise- it is impossible to distinguish the position, or turnover of aug anyways- enharmonically they are all the same anyways.
thank you so much for the "it sounds like it wants to go somewhere" on diminished chords versus augmented chords which does not have that feel. That was exactly the logical explanation I was looking for. Same goes for harmonic perfect fourth and fifth. Need to practice those a bit, but now I'm sure I'll get there!

@@j.lindback imagine the solution of dim and aug and you will make no mistake in your life ever again: dim wants to resolve down, aug wants to resolve up.
Fun idea! Good point about the sight reading (notes moving in the exercise similar to eye movement). Really wish I had that tool when I was first learning to sight read.

Intervals - 11/12 Chord types - 12/12 Scales 12/12 Intervals 4 10/12 - keep getting 4ths and 5ths mixed up! Sight reading 16/16 I found the chords and scales much easier than the intervals, perhaps playing guitar and piano has helped me out with this!
Intervals: Gold Chord quality: Silver Scales: Gold Harmonic Intervals: Silver Reading Pitch: Gold I'm not at all surprised I got silver on chord quality, i listen to tons of music where major and minor roles are reversed from the standard "happy/sad" of western, but i also hear plenty of western music as well, so they are harder to distinguish for me based on quality.
Intervals: 12/12 GOLD Chord types: 10/12 SILVER Scales: 8/12 BRONZE Harmonic intervals: 12/12 GOLD Sight reading: 16/16 GOLD I’ve got some problems with scales, also some difficulties with aug or dim chords.:)
Intervals - 12/12 gold Quality - 12/12 gold Scales - 12/12 gold Harmonic Int - 11/12 silver (the suspension-resolution tip is actually new to me; thanks!) Sight - 16/16 gold I will say that these exercises were a lot easier than when I had just started in music theory class, but the difficult part in transcription is hearing these all in context! Scales at fast tempos really toss me off, and surprisingly, so do diatonic chord progressions (2ndary dominances and modal interchange jump out and are easier in a strange way).
the most difficult part for most people was probably telling the difference between diminished and augmented chords. listen for the tritone and darker feeling created by the minor third in dimished chords. augmented chords are more spread out.
for me, the diminished chord sounds like its root wants to slide down a semitone, whereas the augmented chord sounds like its aug fifth wants to slide down a semitone to become a p5. of course, they can both resolve any number of different ways, but that's just how i'm feeling their directionality rn
try to play these solutions. for dim it doesn't need to be semitone- it might be the whole tone (VII-I in any minor). Aug needs to rise (#I- IV with #SO-LA in melody). Play it couple of times to hear it. And then try again. Let me know.
@@cetterus VII-i in minor wouldn't involve a diminished chord. maybe you mean dorian vi dim - i? but i don't find that resolution very strong in isolation, at least with the timbre i'm playing with. edit: wait, did you mean *natural* vii dim in or borrowing from harmonic minor? that's definitely a more satisfying cadence, but the voice movements are more information to describe. and i still think i prefer #i dim - I (Maj) as a more resolved individual chord movement. and the #I Aug - IV - I cadence is satisfying, but if i want to resolve an Aug in a single chord movement, i think i'd still reach for I Aug - I (Maj) as if it were just a weird kind of suspension. just leaving it as #I Aug - IV feels incomplete
@@rarebeeph1783 Of course I meant harmonic minor, but you can do major as well- the point of solfeggio is you find these resolutions that you can remember. As for aug chord (we call it quintakord- the first position)- try to make it out of any major chord. I gave the idea of I (with aug 5th) just to cut lengthy explanation. So: take any major chord (first position)- augment its 5th (you should get aug chord there) and resolve it up into another harmony that contains resolving note- another semitone up (for me it works best with root note going 4th up). Most simple example: C-E-G; C-E-#G; C-F-A (from lower to higher). Gradual enlargement of 5th is the most common way in classical literature- therefore people are most familiar with this progression. And there you have it in your head- dim leads down, aug leads up. edit: The "first position" or "quintachord" is "THE FIRST INVERSION" to English and American people...I knew I would remember!
@@cetterus i wouldn't say i think aug leads up per se; it can kinda lead anywhere. but as a triad, in my mind, it kinda just "wants" to collapse inward (down) to a major chord, not in inversion. i do think C-E-G; C-E-#G; C-F-A sounds resolved... but so does C-F-A; C-E-#G; C-E-G, and i'd even call that slightly stronger. but maybe i'd change my mind if i heard them in context, idk

Gold across the board for me, which will make my old music professors very proud! However I did get one wrong in harmonic intervals, I definitely have that struggle of sometimes not hearing P4 and P5 clearly, ESPECIALLY when it is an F and a C together...I wonder why? I think it might have to do where the human voice sits/sings commonly. Whenever I hear an M3, my brain immediately fills in the triad, which is annoying but I guess helpful in quickly identifying This was fun!!
Well, I happen to be blessed with perfect pitch, and when I learned piano I actually learned by ear, so I never did any sight reading. I was actually 5: for 5. although the scales challenge I did have to think a couple times but I did get it all.
I got tonegym off of the back of one of your previous videos and the apps are good but i wish there were more sound examples. e.g. they have some videos on intervals which are very theory heavy and i pretty much already know, but in 4 videos on intervals never once do you hear what they sound like! im generally pretty good at intervals when theyre played ascending or descending but when i hear them at the same time i pull my hair out trying to tell the difference between a P4 and P5 and your video helped me with the sus trick more than tonegym did. i just wish they had a "this is what each interval actually sounds like" video also I am a tenor (and updated my profile for that) but in the pitch app the default note is a C4 which seems very high for me! all gold except bronze in harmonic intervals
I did far better on this "Olympics" than I have on any others that have been posted here, something I entirely attribute to watching this channel, which has taught me a lot over time.
I got three gold one bronze and one silver. I guess I need to work on major thirds because in the first one, they sounded like every interval all at once to me.
Here are some chord progressions I think you should cover in a future video: I-iii-vi-IV (used in Help by the Beatles and Cruel Summer by Taylor Swift) I-I-bIII-IV (used in Magical Mystery Tour by the Beatles and Soak up the Sun by Sheryl Crow)

Its called jazz melodic minor cause unlike the classical one which changes when going up and down (ascending has the natural 6 and 7, and flat 6 and 7 going back down), the jazz melodic keeps the natural 6th and 7th scale degree while going up and down
I missed one in each of the first 3 "events" but I was only listening while doing something else, so I didn't know until the 4th even that the answer options were on screen. They should have had some 6ths and 7ths in the interval portions. 6ths can be tricky.

Its called jazz melodic minor cause unlike the classical one which changes when going up and down (ascending has the natural 6 and 7, and flat 6 and 7 going back down), the jazz melodic keeps the natural 6th and 7th scale degree while going up and down
I missed one in each of the first 3 "events" but I was only listening while doing something else, so I didn't know until the 4th even that the answer options were on screen. They should have had some 6ths and 7ths in the interval portions. 6ths can be tricky.
silver everywhere, not quite there yet
I managed to get the gold medal for the sight reading 😍
