Harmony Crash Course: How to make BORING chord progressions BETTER!
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 10. 2016
- In this lesson we will take the simplest possible chord progression (a C major going to an F major and back again) and see how we can make it more interesting by adding a chord in the middle. This is called reharmonization, since we're taking the harmony and changing it. Despite the fancy name it's a very simple idea that can transform your chord progressions into something much more interesting!
- Hudba
For those of you wondering, here are the ACTUAL progressions (since all examples are given in the key of C major):
1) 0:47 --> | I - - - | IV - - - |
2) 2:06 --> | I - ii7 - | IV - - - |
3) 2:32 --> | I - II7 - | IV - - - |
4) 3:01 --> | I - vi - | IV - - - |
5) 3:50 --> | I - III - | IV - - - |
6) 4:53 --> | I - III+ - | IV - - - |
7) 5:43 --> | I - VIIb - | IV - - - |
8) 6:46 --> | I - I7/VIIb - | IV/VI - IV - |
9) 7:21 --> | I - I7/III - | IV - - - |
10) 7:50 --> | I - I7/III - | IV - II7/IV# - |
11) 8:24 --> | I - VIb - | IV - - - |
12) 9:23 --> | I - IIIb - | IV - - - |
13) 10:04 --> | I - V - | IV - - - |
14) 10:46 --> | I - iii - | IV - - - |
15) 12:14 --> | I - vii7 - | IV - - - |
16) 13:22 --> | I - v - | IV - - - |
You're welcome! :D
thank god
Justo Lanuse you are certainly welcome, mate! :D
My personal favorite is No. 11
Thank you for writing this down for the other viewers.
MangoldProject No problemo, Mr. Mangold! Always here to help! :D
Would love a video on rhythm training like you do with the chord progressions.Thanks!
INCREDIBLE....I took piano lessons for 4 years...60 years ago and didn't learn as much 'reality playing' as I've learned in 10 of your videos..Thank you so much from Canada North
This video is just so amazing. This is undoubtedly the greatest music lesson I've ever had.
Your lessons are so good because you offer so much context. Excellent stuff!
Absolutely DonHalli. I was so blown away by the number of single chords you could put between a 1 & 4. But when I got over that I started to notice the fills; definitely the icing on the cake - as if the cake wasn't enough. Beautiful!
The interjection of the A-flat creates such an interesting and unexpected sound. Because it's uncommon (but still appealing), its use in a song would make it distinct and memorable. I think it's waiting to be included in a hit song.

My first thought was Heart Shaped box by Nirvana. Just checked, it's not the same chords, but it's similar sounding.
whats the harmonic justification of the flat 6?

through the entire lesson i was thinking of the song "imagine" by john Lennon. great lesson.
Me too
Same!!
I was definitely thinking about that era of music too
Lmao ye
Same same same ya
I'm loving revisiting this, even just listening to you playing the straight C > F with that great extra syncopated note just blows my brains.
I can't tell you how much your tutorials have blessed me! I get so much pleasure from the piano now.
What a GREAT lesson. I've played piano, guitar and trumpet for 35+ years with many teachers and too many videos to count. Your lessons always inspire me with techniques and ideas to unpack. Thank you!
Hello .I just wanted to share with you that classes have changed course my life and those around me
.It's been a blessing spending time following your path.
I'm defintely gonna use these tips in my future arrangements, Thanks a lot !!
Love you lessons! So exact with no wasted time and words.
I can only say thank you, thank you, thank you for the all lessons. God bless you!
You are a huge help to the intermediate player that is looking to move to the next level. This lesson here should be called hidden secrets of the I-IV. Thank you for this. opened up another world for me.
Another fantastic lesson. Thank you!
What a pleasant voice you have. I love your intonation, very calm and melodious. You relax me with your voice. And you seem to be a very gentle man.
Absolutely brilliant - many thanks. I wish you every success
You are awesome, love your tutorials. You are a great teacher with a calming, relaxed voice.
Thank you Pauline. I teach the way I'd like to be taught.
This is what I need in my keyboarding... Exceptional teacher! Keep it up sir
Thank you very much for the wonderful clips.
Every time I open your videos my piano mind is more wide, thank you much. Rocío
What a great teacher! Thanks!
Very informative indeed ! Practice is not boring ! You keep it a lot of Fun ! at all times !
Excellent lesson, awesome teacher. Thanks!
What an amazing video and you play magnificent. I have never heard of conjugate minors, only relative minors. This opens up a whole new world for improvisations.
Interesting how you changed your motives according to the chord qualities!
Thank you for this video:)
Just what I needed - thank you!
A very handy and motivating video.. Even just the thought of using the relative minor for each of the major chords you insert... Lots of good things to explore. Fanx! for posting.
You're insane. Thank you so much for your videos. I hope one day I can be 10% as good as you!
you don't know how I appreciate your lessons
Well, you can like/subscribe/comment if you want to show your appreciation. That sort of stuff signals the CZcams search engine the content is worthwhile so other people can find it too. Thanks!
This guy is a fabulous teacher!
great and helpful piano channel!! THX !
Thanks sir for this lesson's i can't believe u r so kind
Again nice clear lesson for chord progressions and theory.
whoaaaw i've learned a lot! Thank you so much!
You're such a wonderful teacher
Love it! Thank you.
Excellent Lessons. Really enjoy them. Thank You.
You're welcome, Carl. Glad you enjoy them.
That's it. I'm gonna subscribe to this channel!
This tutorial was brilliant thank you bro
thank you so much for this fantastic lesson
i am not a trained musician, just play the guitar as a hobby but i like your lessons very much...honest and simple yet packed with ready to used ideas..your a great piano teacher.. probably the best on youtube especially for beginners & novices. I am astonished at how the inserts to the simple progression can sound so different in particular the untypical C -Ab-F ...it sounds james bondish. keep 'em coming.
Thanks!
really good lesson. It really easy to understand. Keep it up man ! im gonna keep watching :D
Wonderful ideas!
Interesting and classy. Thank you MG.
You're welcome Kenneth.
so so much useful. thanking u from the bottom of the heart. :)
I learnt a lot from this. I have seen two of your videos so far: this one and using Beethoven chords in modern music. I am learning from both of them. Thank you. Samuel.
I found this video very interesting and very useful. Thank you very much. Samuel
Might be the only guide I'll ever need ; )
I was just thinking the same thing!
Good to see Elton John giving a lesson.
i just wanted to say, i came to this comment section just to see if someone said this.
John Lennon. Imagine
Thank you verry much! You have a great style. I can only learn with you :-)
Excellent lesson..
the C/Eb/F progression has a sim or sandbox video game soundtrack feel to it. Love your piano lessons!
Thanks. Glad to know you liked it!
Hi, I like the C Bb F most. You are a Master of Music.
Thank you!
Super lesson
Amazing lesson
Fantastic videos!! Thanks soooo much for sharing your knowledge with us.
very nice, outstanding job
Thank you for this video! It is awesome!
Happy to help out, Taylor.
Epic tutorial. One of the best ever. Btw for me even A major and D flat minor kind of worked as well. Actually, all regular chords worked somehow when I found the best inversions and played with a good rhythm, just the effect was sometimes surprising or sounded like transposing on purpose.
Excellent video with so many ideas to explore. I would love to know the theoretical basis for these chordal ideas. Some of them are obviously fairly straightforward but it would be cool to know why many of these chords work in the progression the way they do. Thanks as always for sharing your knowledge. You are providing an invaluable resource for musicians at every level.
this video has blown my mind... I always wrote within the scale of the key. wow amazing vid. I hope I can implement some of these techniques
Great! Borrowing chords from other scales is the spice of music :)
Thanks you Sir!
Congrats ! Really nice video MangoldProject again and again :D
very good! thanks for those ideas!
You're welcome.
Love love love this. Mind beautifully blown :)
I love your channel SO MUCH!
Thanks Hansol. I'm glad to hear it's helping you out.
thank you so much. I like little tension between some chords.
All those examples are beautiful. I'm amazed you can do that on the fly. I can't even it quite right in a DAW, but give me time. :)
This is awesome!
it's fun to rethink some of these progressions as V I in F
really good tutorial man
Nice. Thank you
תודה אתה אלוף לומד ממך המון!
I > iii > IV > vi > V7 > I is now my new favorite, thanks for pointing it out to me.
What v7 means?
@@paulpingol7650 Dominant 7 :)
BEAUTIIFULLL!!!
Thank you.
You are the best!
Thank you, sir! I can't afford lessons right now, but I feel I'm improving with your videos.
That's awesome! I hope they keep helping you out. When you can, do get lessons with a "real" teacher who can tailor lessons specifically to you.
Would LOVE to see you repeat this and cover every possible 2 chord cadence....
ONE EACH for alternatives to get from ii - V, and then from III - VI, then IV - V, then V - IV, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc....!
Thank you for taking long to make it clear.
Excelente!!!
I am lucky that I have found you in You Tube.. U r Priceless..
beautiful play
Thank you Dikole.
Just been practising these along with a few of your lovely fills when I thought of trying Cm/D# (as I'd just been learning Lauren Daigle's reharm of "Turn your eyes upon Jesus" which uses it) and it seems to work fine. Thanks again for all your work and encouragement!
Thank you :D this is inspiring
Wow very nice
thank you
Shalom dear 'Mangold'!
Thanks very much for your highly useful, practical lessons.
Possibly a "broad" question regarding this lesson:
You present rather short and simple chord-progressions, but you actually play more than a simple pattern/rhythm (not sure what the correct term here is) - RH/LH note-sequences.
Could you please explain, what is it that you actually do, with both your hands, playing these progressions?
Possibly, you have another lesson regarding "splitting" of chords to separate notes / chord arppegiation-patterns / adding inter-chord notes?
(Again, I'm probably not using the correct professional terms, but would assume you'd understand even so)
I love this video I like it plz make more
piano lessons video
To Mangold project: You are by far the best piano teacher on youtube.
To everyone else: If you are new to learning this stuff guys you can stop looking, this guys channel is the cream of the crop
Awesome
Too much information. My brain caught fire.
Put it out with these COOL CHORDS then!
czcams.com/video/XN8BjVOODYk/video.html
No and my brain is not on fire their is no
information
Nice lesson, as always.
I would like to know if you have a tip on how to perform arpeggios based on a guitar tab of a song. Maybe this could be a suggestion to a future video.
Your really incredible
5:35 Sweet Home Alabama (Mixolydian Progression with the bVII)
Very nice thangs
Two ones I use from time to time (when it fits):
1. |C Gm C7| F D7/F# F/G|
2. The Richard Tee lick: stay on C in the bass for the first bar, go to F via Am, Abm, Gm
I don't think to use augmented chords often enough - great tips!
No prob, and dust off your old Pixies records for a refresher :)
Would love to hear some info on the overall swing of these riffs.
these lessons are great. do you have any music or videos you'd advise listening to? thanks!
