Thanks, Zach. It’s always good to review this stuff. To get from C major to F# major, one could pivot on the note B natural-this tone is the third of the V chord in C, but the 7th of the V chord in F#.....so your standard tritone substitution. It would then resolve nicely down to A#, the third of the new key.
Great observation! I use tritone substitutions often--and for similar reasons, you could also play a B diminished or B fully diminished to modulate as well :)
That's awesome!
I was just thinking about this. I only knew it had something to do with the 5th.... But, this explains things much more clearly. 😅
Super informative as always. Thank you buddy!
Great, very very effective.
Tanx!
Brilliant - Thanks!
What a great video, thanks!
C major and F# major still has one common chord. Isn't the G major the dominant of C major and the Neapolitan 6th of F# major?
Your a born Teacher Zach. Many thanks. Anyone know of a chart or resource where you can quickly find what common chords might be in 2 different Keys?
You have to understand the circle of fifths. While you go up through major keys every neighbor key got 2 different chords - its 2nd and 4th in F for example, that are 5th and 7th in C (so 2nd is minor in F that is major dominant in C and 4th is major in F and diminished in C). In minor its 4th and 6th in d for example, that are 7th and 2nd in a (so 4th is minor in d that is 7th major in a and 6th is major in d that is 2nd diminished in a). When you talking about a step gap between keys, like in this video (C-(G)-D) then there are only two same chords that are from this middle key - G and his minor e.
Interesting to notice that 6-4-2 is a subdominant function of chord progression and 3-5-7 is dominant (order is important, kinda) so in major part of F 4-2 differs part of C 5-7, and in minor d 6-4 differs 7-2 (call it 9 for easiness so 7-9) of minor a (so in major they totally swap functions.
Actually buy a book that is called "harmony", that is not that big and explains pretty much to cook on your own)
The C-major to Bb-major sounded like F-major to me. The Bb chord sounded like it was tense and wanted to resolve somewhere else
hi may i know what software is that to show piano keys and the notation? thanks
Classroom Maestro 😁
So what about F# ? 🤷♂️
It is how I do it as well. I'm also looking for other tricks to do it.
Or you exclusively use voice leading with the only rule of each note having to move a half- or whole step with each intermediate chord. Then you're in Jacob Collier land.
YEP! That's a whole different world of musical rules (or lack thereof) 😂
Great video! As far as I know what you call Direct modulation isn’t actually a modulation at all… But I might be wrong and there might be different terms in different languages for it.
Kinda sad, Zach. You didn't end up at F-sharp major! Kidding, you're always fun to watch.
Busted haha--my own train of thought pulled me away from the solution! For a quick modulation I'd probably do C major > Bdim > F# major if using diminished chords to modulate, OR C > G > D > A > E > B > F# if using the circle of fifths for a longer modulation... though there's many other ways to accomplish it :)
@@ZachHeyde I’d use the diminished chord, too. But only in pieces that can live with its slightly old-fashioned sound. Just saw Jacob Collier praise diminished chords because of their modulation flexibility the other day 😄
