  • A List, I agree with Oregon. You are correct, however that many musicians who have no book lernin' 'bout music theory have written a lot of great music. Some of it is pretty complex, too. The interesting thing is that in a way you put down the very people you were trying to raise up. You see, music theory is all about understanding real pitch relationships and rhythm. So, it is common for a musician to actualy know theory but not be able to explain it. It's better to have both tho. Agree?

  • Really good teacher. The videos are short and to the point. Good job.

  • Lol im so gonna fail class... Why did I want to be in music theory again?.... Oh yeah, hot bass player with long hair in my class -.-

  • I hate theory. its goddam annoying. Goddamn f sharp harmonic chromatic scale... *splodes*

  • it kind of looks like he drew a big penis on the board by the end of this video.

    well... close enough to make me laugh in the classroom anyway

  • Learning this shit frustrates me beyond belief.

  • DAMN YOU ADS, I NEED TO FINISH MUSIC PAPER WITHIN 30 MINUTES AND GET TO CLASS.

  • @oregonskateok Music is in a mind, not on paper. Knowledge of the theory only makes it quicker/simpler to write it down from head to paper. Though I agree for complex stuff knowledge of the theory simplifies it a lot.

  • the "littlest "

  • this theory is essential...

    but expansion must come from inside

  • Also this guy doesn't know musical theory inside out it might be safe to assume that as we live in a infinite universe - nobody knows musical theory inside out as it's an ever expanding subject.. although disney doesn't want it to be that way...

  • how do you know they can't anyway musical taste is purely SUBJECTIVE!!!!!!!!! having said that Indian music (sitar and all that) has enharmonic series of up 34 notes between an octave.. Watch a thing called "how music works" - by Howard Goodhall anyway the world in which we live in people would much rather listen to "FUCK" music than any other types - justin timberlake I'm looking at you - oh and madonna stole her act of Cyndi Lauper
