  • When you look at a melody how do you know in which key it is composed? This music theory lesson presents a short piece and explains how to determine the key of a given melody. It also talks about modulation to a different key. How good are you at recognising the key of a melody and at identifying modulation? Here is your chance to find out and to build more confident skills when it comes to identifying key and modulation. A useful skill for any musician.

    I particulary enjoy these explanations of decoding a melody to find its tonality. Can I find similar videos on your channel for learning this kind of tonal reasoning? Thanks a lot, I like your work!

    It's amazing how much more sense the melody makes when you put the chords under it at the end. For the whole video, when listening to the melody only, it sounded to me like measure 6 sort of "ruined" the whole thing. Then the chords made it all understandable.

    Thank you again.
    Could you please put a video on how you play chords on melody. When it changes, how the bass should move,...
    Thanks

      If you have a look around our videos on TH-cam you will find these.

    I’m guessing G minor based on the Bb and Eb + the leading tone.
