Augusto I don't think that's true. Pop music uses a lot of seventh chords and other extended chords. Maybe there aren't a lot of chromatic tones, but there are loads of sevenths and ninths.
they are not a part in the main layer and the mix cause them dissonants kinda turned down. the basic chord pops out more than the rest it's kinda reversed when it comes to modern metal, where the dissonant are part of the main layer
I mean... irs pop music, its supposed to be easy listen. But yeah there are quite a lot of exceptions to this, I find Charli XCX often finds some dissonance in her songs
Yet another short video from Mr Beato that ends up taking an hour to watch because I keep stopping it, take a few notes, then go back to watch it again and see if I understand it better after taking notes. Change a few notes after reviewing a section that I took the notes for, then review it again. When will I learn that this always happens!!? Rick Beato should be classified as a drug, and I am hopelessly addicted. Unlike most other drugs that I have tried each hit from Mr Beato just gives me a bigger rush than the previous hits have done. Cold Turkey is not an option, the only solution is more practice.
Rick expounds on music in such an infectious manner. He is just all about the explanation and it works. He makes you want to run out and play music on an instrument. This guy is fantastic. What Sal Kahn is to math this man is too music.
Along the same lines, I always emphasize the half steps in _whatever_ scale it is. The half steps are where the emotion is in any scale. Those are the pieces of the scale that define the entire characteristic.
Rick, this is awesome. I write, starting from the feeling. I can feel an emotion but also sometimes write something that has an emotion I'm not feeling, per se. Such things may be needed for music for film, shows, etc., to be able to write in an emotion required in a scene. You have added so much to what I try to do and I appreciate it very very much, that you take the time to share and to care. All that being said, it is incomprehensible that anyone would "down vote" this. True, people allegedly have a right to an opinion but I would seriously place the "downvoters" of this specific video into a category of anti-social (or simply evil) personalities, to have not been grateful for the gift you have given in this video. Thank you for all you share.
I don’t have extensive knowledge about music. But I’ve learned over years that my music preferences always heavily gravitate towards emotion (preferably in minor keys) via dissonance & resolution. I’ve been trying to identify what component my ear liked to hear and why... this video clarified a lot of things for me!! I’ve been trying to understand music on a deeper level and this has started to help me achieve that! Thank you so much for making this video!! Wanting to also understand accidentals better and if this correlates at all with this video!
I’ve also noticed that I appreciate a lot of Spanish & French music because in my opinion, they like to use these kinds of techniques! One great example is the song “XY” by Vitaa & Slimane. I’d love to sit down and speak to someone who has an extensive knowledge in music...it’s just so intriguing to me!!
I love that it’s “emotion” and not something specific, there are sooo many distinct ways to use dissonance. Besides the beautiful Major 7 or Minor 9 chords, up the distortion and just play an open power chord interspersed with a high range minor second on syncopated off beats? That’s half of all metal break downs
Personally, I consider surprise to be very, very important to make sure the music isn't boring or cliche. So I really like to put deceptive moves in there, maybe even two in a row, before finally giving the listener satisfaction. The biggest problem with pop music nowdays is "no surprises" in the chords. Your composition, as a theme for a movie sound track, is better than most I've actually heard. It might just need a pinch more recognizable melody if you want to take home an Oscar, but even as it is, it's quite good.
Sir, I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge. Because it helps me a lot to express what I feel, but was yet unable to express in a musical way. And yes, the melodies you created there are incredibly beautiful!
You are like the greatest teacher ever. Your knowledge seems unsurpassed, although I don't know that to be a fact. I'm extremely happy I found your channel. I wish you great success. Even more than you've had already.
This is great. As a beginner, for me, this ties in perfectly with your recent video...Film Scoring, What the Pros Know. It's just like an explanatory extension of that videos theme. Very nice. I think this opens up a world of ideas just doing what you did here, stay in a major scale a learn what all can be done with it. Very nice fit with the kids video. In 30 years, they'll watch this with a few tears,..... just how great dad was :) Thanks..
That mini composition is beautiful. It reminds me of Aaron Copland. I have a feeling that he uses these spread voicings with dissonance a lot in his music.
Nice, Rico. Simple, sweet, and honest. I've often wondered if the truly great composers of the world reach a point where technical wizardry is bypassed or becomes so instinctual that the soul can feel whatever it wants, and the composer simply becomes the "messenger." To me, Shostakovich was the greatest emotional composer I've ever known. I've never heard a composer that can MAKE ME fall to my knees weeping for no other reason than the sound of his music. Symphony #10 first movement gets me every time. It's those damn violas. Anyway, keep on teachin', Rico, I love it !! AND I do not EVER take what you are doing for granted. Thankyou and your family for allowing us into your home and your lives. Hey Dylan !!!!!
Repition with development and relative consonance/dissonance, as well as development of intensity throughout a song. There has to be a balance of predictability and a sense of surprise. Once the mind attaches meaning to something (especially lyrics) coming back to the chorus can smack the emotion button hard. Recently I was trying to figure out why “No One is To Blames” by Howard Jones always brings me to the edge of tears. But I understand the song in the context of a gentle summer day when I was coming of age and started having crushes. It always felt just like that. The best way to move towards all that is write. Study yes, but write your own stuff and keep doing it. If it takes five hundred a thousand songs, it will be well worth it.
If all the other TH-cam channels were deleted that would prevent me from wasting time watching garbage videos when I should be watching yours. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely. I never knew that scale degree 4 had more tension than scale degree 5 and that is was so similar to the tension that degree 7 has due to it's half-step. Also the "V 7 wanting to "expand" to its tonic resolution" made me say "oh" out loud. I watched 00:45 4 times, watching your right hand... and it clicked. Cool. You are opening my mind to new possibilities and understandings, building on the knowledge foundation I learned in community college music theory classes... which, until this moment, have been 99% useless to me when it comes to application (aside from chord theory). Thank you.
I came across your video, Rick, quite by chance..and as a harp player myself (only got white notes, me!) stuck with it through the theory, and thank goodness I did. Your example of combining the theory-idea, together with just simple film shots hit the mark and great globby tears welled up within fifteen seconds.... Thank you again for a really inspired video. Andyharpist in England.
Dude, RICK...everything you do is always KILLIN man!!!! I feel frickin blessed that I get to be subscribed to your channel and really benefit from your musical knowledge and experience! And my kids watch with me (17-13-9) (piano, trumpet, recorder) (boy, girl, boy). Thank you Rick!
I personally think dissonance is only one way to create emotion. The first theme of Anton Arensky's Piano Trio No. 1 in d minor does an amazing job of creating emotional content through only an arpeggio. When it's repeated in the finale, I always cry because - despite the lack of dissonance - it demonstrates so much longing and sorrow. A big part of that is rhythmic content.
So that’s why I’m so drawn to dissonances! Thank you so much for this, I’ve recently picked up the piano and I was wondering why I felt naturally pulled towards dissonances
Oh wow... I have so much to learn... I've been learning a lot of theory lately and just when I think I know something, someone like you comes along and makes me feel like I am back in grade school. But it is worth it! That short musical score packs so much emotion! Thanks Rick!
I love you do, you’re a real hero for explaining this to everyone. I feel like the theory you explain really breaks the vail of the common progressions you hear over and over on the radio. Sometimes, I wonder if a hit is just a hit because of how familiar the audience is with the progression, the creation of dissonance and it’s resolution. Still a novice- barely have the circle memorized and still use my fingers to count. Hopefully one day I’ll learn for sure.
Thanks for this Rick. Opens up some new colors of expression for me. I love the tension that dissonant voicing creates, and it works particularly well in dance music.
I think the best example I can think of is a piece from the Dark Souls game called Gwyn, Lord of Cinder. It's super emotional and all played with the white keys.
Great work, loved the explanations... would love to hear a more minor sounding example of this, kinda the way you played the guitar in this video, that was great stuff.
Thank you for drawing our attention to this approach. I think i have heard similar stuff in some Arron Copland pieces without really registering there were spots without "black keys" so to speak...i have gotten so muvh inspiration and valuable information from your videos. I never got to go to music school, but you are helping me make up for lost time now!
Thank you so much for the information you are giving out. I play an African style marimba - I only have the notes of the C Maj scale. You are kicking the door open on the potential of this instrument - starting with modes, and now chord structure. I have so much to learn, and I am excited and grateful.😎
Thank Rick that was fantastic, I sort of already half understood some of that just from playing, but you really succinctly put a lot of things I couldn’t understand from theory I’d read. Excellent!
Really enjoyed the little tune in the middle, a crossover that reminds me of "Out of Africa" and the Michael Jackson song "Childhood". Very emotional, together with the pictures of your family. Great work.
Yes you guys! Cello, erhu and also: the duduk when played in certain ways. They sort of resemble the human voice/tone - for instance how it sounds in the mongolian long song.
genius. im approaching the guitar in this way now, just building my own chords and doing, like you said, middle of the chords being the m2 type dissonance, and Maj7 leading tones on top if its that type of chord, etc.
I love this! I score my short little videos as well. Since they haven't hired me at Universal, I might as well put them to use somewhere. I appreciate how you build this up from the most basic elements of the (in this case) major scale.
I'm just back from a spacerock festival in my backyard ! Rick, there was one Band that kicked my ass in a way that could be defined as "Freedom" in new spaces ! Man it was real good ! All together with start of new rocksolid job it takes off here in my space . Follow you Rick, with devotion and care ; - )
This helps a ton for trying to get chord theory figured out, I already have a sense of scales and chords, but its a bit abstract and shaky because I don't understand yet why the chords in my progs give me the vibes they do, just learning about cadences and testing them out is helping a LOT. :p
Just learning the Shostakovich three voice Fugue No 7 in which there are NO dissonances. During his time Stalin gave orders that Shostakovich was to be shot dead for creating music that Stalin deemed too ‘emotional’ for the masses. But the Fugue is absolutely the most beautiful music I have ever heard, which is why I’m learning it. Just an FYI. Bill
Dissonance = Emotion is such a great rule to music theory, and a reminder as to why dissonance is not a bad thing when writing music.
My friends say my music is too dissonant.
@@Ivan_1791 guess then its too emotional xD
@@Ivan_1791 same for me, everyone says that, but its what I am going for
@@Ivan_1791 some think that dissonance becomes bad when it has reached a limit, a bit like random young children playing piano.
@@letimo6721 I hope that's the reason. xD Anyways I always post my works in my channel.
I can't get through 5 minutes of your videos without wanting to race over to my piano and try something new! :D
or guitar.
I know the feeling... I wish I had a piano :(
The trick is to have your instrument at/next to your computer.
@@quicksanddiver there are some awesome weighted action keyboards that truly feel like an acoustic piano
Right!😂
Really enjoyed this video. You always give me so much to think about. Thanks!
Thanks David!
Omg a person with subs
This just make me remember how Pop music nowdays avoid dissonance... and sometimes it sound very emotionless.
Augusto I don't think that's true. Pop music uses a lot of seventh chords and other extended chords. Maybe there aren't a lot of chromatic tones, but there are loads of sevenths and ninths.
I agree
they are not a part in the main layer and the mix cause them dissonants kinda turned down. the basic chord pops out more than the rest
it's kinda reversed when it comes to modern metal, where the dissonant are part of the main layer
I mean... irs pop music, its supposed to be easy listen. But yeah there are quite a lot of exceptions to this, I find Charli XCX often finds some dissonance in her songs
Pop music and mainstream hip hop uses some dissonance, but it uses it in a very flat and predictable way. It's like calling mayonnaise spicy
shoutout to guitarists : Emotion starts with Em
Starts with D for me. D Major but for solos in blues the Em is one of the best.
spicecrop r/whoosh
OofleSpoofle Reddit references in the wild are a dangerous game.

Dm....Cat Stevens...Hard Headed Woman and more....pretty ding danged emotional to me, he said wiping back tears from his good eye

This video leveled me up. Rick you're the greatest
9:24 That was actually very beautifully cinematic Rick.
10:02: That Gadd4/D; so beautiful!
I love your film scoring videos. Each one improves my compositions by 100%
Me too :D

you're work as a father is so inspiring! I hope you're crying tears of joy whole doing these videos! lol
I am :)
@@RickBeato Rick, you have no idea how great of a teacher you are. I've learned so much from you. God bless you and your gorgeous family.
Yeah I cried too
skip to 9:46 for Rick BeeGee-ato
All jokes aside, your knowledge keeps me stayin' alive Rick!
Beautiful song and beautiful family!
I just discovered your channel. You are beyond amazing and i love your contents. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
This will be an awesome challenge for me to develop my compositional craft. Thanks, Rick!
Rick, this video is absolutely beautiful. I really miss these in-depth music theory videos not about popular music. Please bring them back!
Again a great explanation of what's going on in film music. James Horner immediately comes to mind after hearing the example composition. Fascinating.
Along the same lines, I always emphasize the half steps in _whatever_ scale it is. The half steps are where the emotion is in any scale. Those are the pieces of the scale that define the entire characteristic.
Rick, this is awesome. I write, starting from the feeling. I can feel an emotion but also sometimes write something that has an emotion I'm not feeling, per se.

Man, it's so cool to hear someone with the EXACT same motto! I've always said that emotion is in the dissonance. "Emotion = dissonance"!
"The poetry that comes from the squaring off between
And the circling is worth it
Finding beauty in the dissonance"
Thank you! I’m now going to go write a song written in all tritones now, and will then have created the most emotional song ever.
This guy's teachings on music are one of the most important things youtube has to offer to a musician

On one level you make this sound very logical, on another level it makes me realize I'd need decades of study to adlib these lovely pieces. Nice work.

I am really REALLY REALLY interested to see what Rick could do with a full symphony orchestra.
8:54 that is by far the most beautiful progression I have ever heard come from a guitar

Your lessons regularly change my musical life. You make things that were once mysterious so accessible
Wow. Your composition in this video is absolutely phenomenal!
Yes, you should be pleased with that strings section...and I simply cannot get enough of your videos.
Otherworldly voicing is my all time favorite. The family montage with the music was beautiful.
That mini composition is beautiful. It reminds me of Aaron Copland. I have a feeling that he uses these spread voicings with dissonance a lot in his music.

So that’s why I’m so drawn to dissonances! Thank you so much for this, I’ve recently picked up the piano and I was wondering why I felt naturally pulled towards dissonances
If you picked up a piano, you might expect to be pulled toward the ground. :-B
"... in western music."
You know what you must do :P
Demonstrate eastern music?
Collateral Hitz Entertainment Official yes

Great stuff. I learn something new every day. Old dogs keep learning so long as they learned to learn in the first place.

Love your videos Rick. It's exciting to hear someone talk about what me and many other musicians think about all day long.
Another excellent video! Congrats on the 100k:-) Go Rick Go!!
The way you explained the concept and played your piece was so beautiful 😊

Thank you so much for the information you are giving out. I play an African style marimba - I only have the notes of the C Maj scale. You are kicking the door open on the potential of this instrument - starting with modes, and now chord structure. I have so much to learn, and I am excited and grateful.😎
Brilliant. Thanks Rick. Why has it taken me 30 years to discover this!
Thank Rick that was fantastic, I sort of already half understood some of that just from playing, but you really succinctly put a lot of things I couldn’t understand from theory I’d read. Excellent!
It makes sense why flamenco music is so emotional, it is based on highly dissonant scales.
Thanks for finally explaining to me why I've always preferred this kind of dissonance to "classical" functional harmony.
Why?
the V7-I resolution is all about the half steps(b,f) - so simple and so obvious now. thanks!
Really enjoyed the little tune in the middle, a crossover that reminds me of "Out of Africa" and the Michael Jackson song "Childhood". Very emotional, together with the pictures of your family. Great work.
Thanks again Rick. --- you're a ROCKSTAR !!!!
Piano is really one of the most emotional instruments for me. Cellos are a close second (for me)
True, and a cello togerher with a piano can be absolutely magical.
Yes you guys! Cello, erhu and also: the duduk when played in certain ways. They sort of resemble the human voice/tone - for instance how it sounds in the mongolian long song.
genius. im approaching the guitar in this way now, just building my own chords and doing, like you said, middle of the chords being the m2 type dissonance, and Maj7 leading tones on top if its that type of chord, etc.
Rick thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Rick will win, he has the most everything.
Tkanks again for teaching so much. I learn a lot on your videos, even if I don't understand everything. :)
One of my favorites is playing natural minor for a while and then putting in a maj7th interval in a melody over it.
You are the boss. Love the piano sound of that old rd150
GREAT video as Always! Thanks!
Omg that home video montage was unfair!!! Too cute
We can’t sleep, everything is music to us
Superb as always Rick. And what a delightful family you have! ♥
Thank you so much, Rick! Again and again!
9:45 John Petrucci!
Beard looking fiiine
I like to imagine Rick opens his wardrobe, and it's just full of black t-shirts. Great video by the way!
When I lose 20 pounds I will break out my colored shirts :)
I love this! I score my short little videos as well. Since they haven't hired me at Universal, I might as well put them to use somewhere. I appreciate how you build this up from the most basic elements of the (in this case) major scale.
Thank you so much! I have just started to look into this topic with my teacher. Very helpful!
I'm not crying, you are…
bro, way to get deep at the end tho!
I got goosebumps, jeez Rick! Thanks for another fantastic video.
I'm just back from a spacerock festival in my backyard ! Rick, there was one Band that kicked my ass in a way that could be defined as "Freedom" in new spaces ! Man it was real good ! All together with start of new rocksolid job it takes off here in my space . Follow you Rick, with devotion and care ; - )

This helps a ton for trying to get chord theory figured out, I already have a sense of scales and chords, but its a bit abstract and shaky because I don't understand yet why the chords in my progs give me the vibes they do, just learning about cadences and testing them out is helping a LOT. :p
Thanks again Rick...the quality of your information is truly inspirational..awesome!
Just learning the Shostakovich three voice Fugue No 7 in which there are NO dissonances. During his time Stalin gave orders that Shostakovich was to be shot dead for creating music that Stalin deemed too ‘emotional’ for the masses. But the Fugue is absolutely the most beautiful music I have ever heard, which is why I’m learning it. Just an FYI. Bill
I think rick is the most educated musician I've ever heard of. I have no idea what he's talking about.
Epic, sounds like a beatiful animated movie soundtrack, like the end.
