  • I'm still trying to stump Dylan. I think I need to try a little harder! Watch what happens when I play a double polychord at 0:51.

    So.. I have color/tone synesthesia which gives me, pretty much, perfect pitch.. However, this kids speed and ability to pick apart discordant polychords is SCARY! He will be a God among men in music, if he chooses. Bravo!

    very impressive, the physical ability to recognize exact pitches even when they are combined in extremely complex chords. something many non-so-endowed musicians struggle all their lives to hone. since he can do this at such a young age, I greatly look forward to the added skills he will have when his current talent is infused with musical knowledge. BEST TO YOU!

    Hi! Amazing! Rick, I was wondering if Dylan has the ability to say when a sound is in a frecuency that match a note, por example if he hears a oscilator going up gradually from 440Hz (A) to 493Hz (B), he know when it is in 466Hz (A#)?

      Ch.2 What are instruments?

    • @sc1ss0r1ng
      @sc1ss0r1ng Před 7 lety

      Brian McGovern Well yeah, but chords usually has to have 3 notes or more in them to be considered a real chord. Otherwise it is half chords or power chords using only 2 notes like the root and the perfect 5th or the the root and the major/minor 3rd.
      Chords are mainly built by having a root (starting) note, then you will add a major or minor 3rd and then a perfect 5th and voila, you have either a major or minor chord (depending on which 3rd you used). Some chords add extra notes from the scale and so can have many more notes in them like for example: root, major 3rd, perfect 5th, major 7th, perfect 11th (actually the 4th but an octave higher than the root note), and we can keep adding notes until we think it becomes too thick/chaotic.
      This kid does seem to have an amazing ability to seperate the notes from each other in a chord, even extended chords, which is outright insane (in a good way). I can pretty much only identify some intervals in a song, like if they go from the major 7th to the octave, from the root to the 5th, from the root to the major 7th, from the 2nd to the root and of course, the octave jump.

    • @ConnorArchibald
      @ConnorArchibald Před 7 lety

      I like to think of it as 2 notes played at the same time make a harmonic interval (some people call that a dyad). 3 harmonic notes make a triad, or chord. more than 3 notes make a specific chord. 6, 7th, 9th, 11th, and 13th chords are more than 3 notes so they are not a triad.

    Hi Rick, I've watched some of the videos on Dylan's amazing abilities. Was his perfect pitch a natural born gift or did you take specific steps during his early years to help him develop this? If the later is true you MUST create a program to enable parents to give their children this gift. Seriously, not only could you make bank but you would giving a wonderful gift to a world who largely believes perfect pitch must be an inherent ability.

    Very impressive. Can he detect small changes in pitch, like let's say 10 cents off, or if you changed the A to 442 instead if you didn't tell him? Just curious to what degree his hearing is at.. awesome skills!

    • @RickBeato
      @RickBeato  Před 8 lety +1

      Yes but he doesn't think that way. It's difficult to explain but when something is out of tune to A=440 he just assumes that it was meant to be that way. I said him the other day, "do you notice that the pitch is a bit sharp in this recording" and he said "how would I know, I've never heard it before" that's pretty profound and shows you that he's not working off the grid. That's my music that is not in A=440 doesn't bother him at all.

    • @SonnySurreal
      @SonnySurreal Před 8 lety

      When you say 'meant to be that way,' does that mean he knows that the notes are off standard tuning, but does not perceive it as dissonant (out of tune)?
      So for instance, you could play 24 notes on the piano at the same time, and have 3 keys slightly off standard tuning, and he could identify exactly which 3 notes are off standard tuning? That would be an incredible feat if so..

    • @RickBeato
      @RickBeato  Před 8 lety +2

      +Sonny Trinh When Dylan was a baby we listen to music from all different eras much of which was tuned above A=440 or below A=440. For example, a lot of European classical and jazz music is tuned to 442-445. Glenn Gould's Recording of Bach's two and three part inventions for example are about six cents sharp from standard tuning. So if you ask him to sing that recording he will sing it slightly sharp because that's the way he heard it on the recording. He's not locked to a grid where it bothers him if something is above or below it. That's why he said "we'll maybe it was meant to be that way".

    Hello Rick. Amazing display of your son's ability to identify and "re-play" the notes, I am stunned. I know this might sound stupid, but would he be able to identify an Augmented Chord with a Diminished Chord added an octave higher? (B D# G B D F)
    And is he able to listen to songs and replicate them after a few times? (In case he is, I was wondering how hard a song such as Johann Sebastian Bach's Chromatic Fugue & Fantasy in D Minor would be to replicate?)
    All the best to you guys, have a good day and keep it up!

      you can't train an ear like that you have to be born with it. Also with music talent, it's not always about opportunities. Read about great musicians from the past. If "rich dad" would be enough to create such talend we would have Mozarts and Bethovens all over the place.
