  • Brilliant tutorial

  • excellent tutorial!!!!! really a big help to someone who understands music by ear, but lacks technical knowledge

  • your a excellent teacher man

  • @Oopiego

    The video is correct. Your post is inaccurate and misleading.

    1. "TI" is correct in all Anglo-Saxon countries. (wiki "solfege".)

    2. It is precisely *because* of the frequency relationships (distance, steps, etc.) that they "have to be". For major scales it's "Major, minor, minor, Major, Major, minor, diminished", just as the video stated.

    3. The man said: "... and the 7th is that weird little diminished chord." at 4:27.

  • Cool.

  • nice lesson

  • Nice job!

    Just wanted to share with you a cool piano gadget recently featured in Gizmag

    Google “gizmag pianomaestro”

  • great theory.very educative

  • The video is riddled with uninformation.

    First of all it is 'si' and not' ti'.

    Secondly the chords on 2,6 and 3 are minor because of the distance distance between the first two notes is only 1.5 steps as opposed to 2 steps in a major. NOT because 'they have to be'.

    Thirdly chord 7 is diminished in a major scale.

  • Thank you so much for this information
