@@nathanielschool Honestly, the best music teacher on TH-cam. You can tell you've been a proper teacher for a long time and it really shows in your lessons. I've never commented but I have binged many of your videos, genuinely thanks :) (p.s. I'm stuck playing the Andalusian cadence because of yours videos..)
You are one of the rare person that answer to the "Why?". Most of people just describe what scales are which can be very confusing for beginner like me. Thank you!
Thank you for appreciating the "why" in my explanations Loïc! I'm glad to help clarify things for beginners like you. If you have more questions, just let me know! Happy learning! 🎹🎵
Wonderful lesson! You helped me bridge a gap in my improv knowledge with your explanation of going from c major to a minor while running to a different mode. It just clicked. Thanks professor!
That was so eye opening! A lot of things finally clicked. Parallel and relative modes really cleared understanding of modes. Playing around a lot lately with getting out of the diatonic "cage" and this lesson helps a lot in clarifying how to use modes for that. Still not fully understand how one determine a song key if there is a lot of modes used and you don't start on the tonic? Spending a lot of hours on your teachings and practicing them. A gold mine of knowledge no less. Incredible contribution to online aspiring pianist and musicians Thanks you!
Jason Loved the breakdown it makes music so much more reachable to beginners to understand and enjoy it. It takes the complacency down of how it use to be taught very useful.
Many thanks, finally I think I understood. What misled me until now were the phrases like "C major scale" and alike, while actually it is somewhat inaccurate shortcut of "major scale in C key".
A future lesson could be about: When is it better to attach chords to the bassline or rather to the upper voice? For example to harmonize a melody, inventing a unique, homophonic chord progression, learning the diatonic inversions over scale tones, for ear training (figuring out harmony) or singing exercises... Greetings
It's been really great to see you teaching music in a simple way that anyone can understand Here I need a help soo recently have purchased a keyboard, wanting to learn music But some times I fail Soo could you recommend me some basis ( basis as the person has never played the keyboard) lesson, mostly am looking for free resources.
Hi Michael. Please head over to www.nathanielschool.com. You have a section called free resources which has beginner lessons that you can filter and learn. You can also consider our structured video courses on the same platform
If I understand the concept of Ragas right, then there is a very famous example in Western Music. And that is the second tetrachord of the minor scale. Downwards minor and upwards melodic minor to avoid the "1 1/2 tone step" of harmonic minor. Dorian is in between. String instruments can even produce 1/4 and 1/8 tone steps in such melodies. There might be examples in Jazz/Blues/Rock.
This scale intrigues me because it is so exotic and gives me a glimpse into the sounds of millennia past. I could play it for hours on end. It's not a scale that is well suited to harmony though...
All of the notes he was playing we're white, because he was starting in the key of C and moving around. If he had wanted to use different notes starting on a different key, he would have had to use sharps or flats to get the same sounds.
When we play C major scale, the key is C. The thing to say is 'the key of C major'. But if we play B locrian, or A harmonic minor scale, how to state the key? Are these correct: 'the key of B locrian', 'the key of A harmonic minor'?
Hi Kisho2679..!!

Hi Jason, I'd like to ask you about a certain piano lesson. I know you are probably busy, I really don't want to bother you, this is just idea, so maybe you could consider it. I really cannot find any lesson on the internet about writing my own arrangement of a song. I know you have made some similar lessons, that might contain parts of it, like left hand laws, building a melody and embellishing it, but making own cover of a given melody is topic stunningly not talkt about enough and I think it's one of the most desired abilities nowadays. I really do believe, you can teach us a lot about that. Thank you as always for your amazing job, God bless you ❤️sending love
Of course you can Tony. Can you write to us on WhatsApp - +917760456847. If he plays the Piano, then please add a couple of short videos indicating his current skill level. We will plan a double as soon as possible. You can also reach us via email at music@nathanielschool.com

For anyone wondering, the dreamy mode starting on F is called Lydian.
Oh yes! A lovely scale indeed
found someone with much searching. Truly a great teacher, a great teaching technique.
Wow, thank you so much Jitendra!

Sir please make a explanation video on using heromonic or melodic minor scale ...
Here you go Ankush: th-cam.com/video/i7dU99lBWAk/w-d-xo.html
14:22 If you had played the E instead of the Eb e.g. C Maj with a b2 and a b6, you would have the Byzantine scale or do
This scale intrigues me because it is so exotic and gives me a glimpse into the sounds of millennia past. I could play it for hours on end. It's not a scale that is well suited to harmony though...
Yep! Well spotted Sean! Love the sound of that 😀
Awesome 👍, I really blessed by this lesson
Fantastic Raffie! Do stay tuned for lots more 😊
so notes doesn't change in modes ????
All of the notes he was playing we're white, because he was starting in the key of C and moving around. If he had wanted to use different notes starting on a different key, he would have had to use sharps or flats to get the same sounds.
Superb Tutorial Sirjee
Thank You 😊
Most welcome Jayant 😊
Hello sir, Thank you for this valuable lesson! How is root of a scale different than a key?
Hmm. I think the Root is the the same as the Key Mandeep. Example, for C major scale, C is the root and the key (tonal) centre
sir, we normally use c# major on harmonium i want write music using the c# minor scale will it sound good not sure
Hmm. I don't see why you can't choose any of the 12 keys though 🤔
When we play C major scale, the key is C. The thing to say is 'the key of C major'. But if we play B locrian, or A harmonic minor scale, how to state the key? Are these correct: 'the key of B locrian', 'the key of A harmonic minor'?
Hi Sandy. Yes! I guess you are right. However, the Key Signature pertains to the Major & the Natural Minor scale
@@nathanielschool thank you sir. Great channel 🙂
how can the amount of notes in a scale be determined (e.g. how decide to choose subset of 7, or 3, or 5, etc. instead of all 12)?

Sir how to dimnition chords root
and how to plying ?
Can you please elaborate your doubt
thank you, interesting. how do eastern and western music differ?
Good question! Western music has a lot more Harmony & Chord progressions than Eastern music. While Eastern music have a lot more scales & patterns!
How do the different scales (chromatic, dorian, lyrian, etc...) refer/relate to the Camelot Wheel and the Circle of Fifth?
You can consider watching the video for circle of fifth which will clarify you doubt:- th-cam.com/video/2EyFNq8I88c/w-d-xo.html
