Video

😁

That was really helpful David! Thank you for making this video. Would like to see a video on non-chord tones that focus on non-diatonic non-chord tones/notes. Thanks again! Learned a lot and like how you explain the different types of non-chord tones.

Sir you teach online students ? I want to learn ..sir

Hm. Something I've always been confused about is why it matters what comes before the non-chord tone. For example, if a song started with a C Major chord, and the right hand had a D on top that resolves down to C immediately after, wouldn't that still be a 9-8 suspension, despite that D not initially being approached by common tone? If I had to guess, I suppose that since it's played at the same time, it might just be considered part of the chord, simply being named a Cadd9 chord, making that D *NOT* a non-chord tone. Just thinking out loud I guess.

what exactly is a section in the first place

The first example went counter clockwise about the circle for the first five chords but the second example F major didn’t play along.

Playing the examples is very important...just talking wont give any ideas....very poor demonstration

Its already a complicate topic and your explanation makes it worse

love his work!!

Thank you so much!

western history plz

plz help me

l am a music student in kenya and l am having some difficulties

Is there a real time analysis? I think it would be more practical.

Interesting to revisit this after 30 + years out of school. I struggled with this then, and still can't say I completely understand now. It's like algebra for music majors.

Fantastic video!!! thank you so much

Thanks

Good morning. Are your videos/lectures available in PDF format?

I'm wondering how come the C is sharp on the viidim and V chord, but not on the F, the III chord?

Can you make some playlists please, so that we can listen to many of your videos in one go. Very good explanations! Thank you

Nice work! One thing, though... at 4:12 you say "It would be pretty unusual for ii to skip over V and go directly to I, but it would be very common for ii to take us to I". I know you meant to say "take us to V" but the incorrect narration will confuse some.

For us math and music nerds, this is gold. Job well done.

Thought this was a math lesson xD

Finals tomorrow, thanks lmao

Helpful

great demonstration!!!

Where is the pedal tone??? 😮

I'm learning set theory in a way so far to just identify the normal music theory. I've gone a step further and added a colour to each number as well at the music theory letters the same colour. I know it seems strange but i tried many things and my mind for some reason being dyslexic had eternal trouble to get it the normal way. I even went a step further and associated a natural thing of that colour to the note. For example to me i felt F was green and for Forest so i painted green. When i think of F i instantly think green forest and a green 5. Or simply 5F where the number gives me logic where to go next. You would not believe the difficulty i've had to learn the traditional music theory and i can never get it to flow where the set theory is starting to make logic sense better and with time think i can relearn it like knowing a new language and get it to flow and be spontaneous in decision making while playing music on guitar. My question: I would like to be able to convert the numbers and letters into the arbitrary colours i'd like to use in a set theory program on mac so i can start to get familiar with my learning concept. Would anyone be able to help me to suggest a program with this function built in so it changes all them across all theory? Then be able to do a heap of questions ect so get flowing with the muscle memory and get the theory down. I can tell you a short story and i spent 4 yrs at grade 4 at primary school in private lessons once a week to learn piano and i learned next to nothing and could never understand the music theory my mother wasted her money. At 48 years old i finally self taught myself Uke Guitar.

This was so helpful! You know it’s a good video if you learn alot within a short time period.

Thanks David. First time music theory student here. Your video really helps.

Lol ya I'm basically just using the tonal harmony textbook table of contents, but then I look up your videos to actually cover the material because the textbook is so dry and boring

Liker 900!

I know I'm just a tad late but this has been super useful for cramming and making sure I know what I need to know before entering AP music theory. Thank you so much

very helpful, thx~

THANK YOU! THANK YOU FOR BEING MY AT-HOME TUTOR BECAUSE I AM GOING O SCHOOL AND HAVE 3 KIDS~!

Thank you so much! I am in theory 3 at FCC and this help at home helps me because I have 3 kids and cannot make it to tutoring!

Merci.

This is the best! Got it instantly. Thank you so much, Mr. Farrell

👏🏻

I’m studying for my Masters Theory entrance exam and you’re a lifesaver!!

I'm confused at @2:20 when you said C is the bass. Isn't F the bass?

Thanks!

Very very very very good! Thank you very much!

This was a helpful refresher. Thank you.

Great!

I like your videos thank you! I don't really see viio as a chord that leads to I however, can you tell me where you go this information? Do you mean V in 1st inversion? the dimished chord wouldnt normally be used in root position like that as a cadential chord.

why was the augmented 7th chord not included?

Merci.
