[NoobCake74]

Hi normally my music teacher taught me all this but he made it more confusing than it needed it to be but now i can read simple music thanks to this video

[mrkev0188]

Thumbs up if your watching this in 2012

[XboxDude97]

[devilgal2000]

If anyone can type "music", they can read the word too.... :D

[ractimg1]

Dear Walter,

I enjoyed your lesson and the way taught this is very effective and productive for the learner like me.

Thanks so much and keep doing the great work !!!!

Cheers,

Ractim

[Zzzzz5959]

This is an awesome, helpful video.

But that's one funky treble clef.

[Atul3741]

i went to a music school for about 2 months and i was so frustated ...i went to learn music because i thought it might help and i never understood a word there..and here i am so helpless and confused to whether play my guitar or just sell it BUT u inspired me like hell..now i realize music is so fun and easy to learn......Greetings from Nepal( a country someone barely knows because it is about 150 times smaller than united states) and keep on the Good Work.....Namastey!!

[imthegoat100]

dude thanks realy big help.

[LadyOfWordz]

why wont my brain compute this

[Connoraiden559]

Thankyou So So Much A Great Help I Thought It Would Take Years To Read Music I Did It In 15 Mins

[jriver64]

Great job! Awesome presentation! You really made this video not only simplistic in learning about notes and beats, but how to look at them in a conceptual manner to remembering these notes. Thank you.

[TheStud822]

Thanks man :) really helped

[sydneyisluv]

Wow you are really good at this. I am an adult, never learned to read music or play an instrument and I thought this would be extremely difficult but you break it down in such a way that's easy to comprehend. I am attempting to learn guitar and this is a great start. Thank you so much :)

[zimalin]

Utterly brilliant! Cheers mate! :))

[Wokkelp]

@waltribeiro @youwilldiecuzkristof , I was joking, the a's sounded a bit like o's to me. But what do I know about American accents.. I'm Dutch! :). Nonetheless, great video's Walt! Too bad the focus is on guitar instead of piano. I "gave" up on guitar when I was young.

[Musificationization]

Your the best. I owe it all to you :)

[DTCJimmy]

i always wondered when looking at it how is that telling me what i have to hit on the drums but its all time etc thanks man

[Wokkelp]

Are you Canodian? :P

Just kidding, this helped me a lot, thanks!

[waltribeiro]

@Wokkelp philadelphia!

[camyeo]

@Wokkelp lol you sure are not CANADIAN LOL thats for sure

[mzsassy25]

I am so clueless when it comes to reading music and so far I am able to follow this lesson. I am extremely grateful for this video posting. Thanks so much!

[ForlanceAbice]

... We waste millions of tax dollars on education, yet you provide it here for free... And I can actually comprehend what you are saying. For those who wasted many hours with professors that have taught but nothing, yet learn the simplistic basics here, I feel for you. Thank you sir, this will not be forgotten.

[ameliaperrywinkle1]

This really helped me, thankyou:)x

[jmh218]

What's your favorite instrument you love playing?

[waltribeiro]

@jmh218 piano

Our lessons are in a specific order, developed in a way that teaches you what you should know, in the best order to learn it in. Again, all of this for FREE!!!

[waltribeiro]

@waltribeiro It's from princess Zelda herself.

[axrt]

[waltribeiro]

Thank you helped me out so much

[soeuth903]

Thank you..that was very helpful..Been almost ten years since I played the piano..awesome review you got there.

[igvu92]

did u go to music school?

[waltribeiro]

@igvu92 yep!

[coldplayer31382]

@waltribeiro This was very helpful, but it didn't answer my probably very basic question. When someone hands you a piece of music you've never seen before, how do you know what the sound is of the note to start on?

[waltribeiro]

@coldplayer31382 ear training. But if its something like piano, then it's pretty easy!

[mcard1d]

Another positive comment from me too. Cheers Walt, you're awesome.

[waltribeiro]

@mcard1d right back atcha

[Horaciow14]

You are awesome. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[oletiptip99]

[BabyBlueEyed2]

we learned Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge and F.A.C.E.

[KRxN11]

Master Braxton, you've got to get this. In the long run, it will make you a lot greater than you already are. I'm self-taught, so it was hard for me to have to go back and learn academically what I was doing musically. It is t4edious, but necessary, sort of like medicine. krxn11

[anathema1982]

Thank you ...ur amazing...too easy to understand

[dinothunder34]

your a really good teacher please dont stop make these vids

[svc981]

[WhiteDragonProduc]

Gah. x.x I was understanding at first but when you were labeling the notes at the last like, 2 minutes I was lost. I was like. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. x.x Isn't that a G or -

Ooooooooh! How do you tell if it's EGBDF or FACE?

[SGRock94]

[likegaston]

Hey Walt,

How do you read the chords represented in letters above the note? Is it always played from where the note is on the scale, then upward? And when I see a letter (chord) above a column of 2 or more notes, how is that supposed to be played?

thanks!
