Applied Ear Training Exercises for the Musically Hungry
WHAT you teach is so informative. But HOW you teach impresses me even more. It's as if your inner thoughts/impressions reach your tongue without the intermediate step of asking yourself how to express your thoughts with words. Consequently, what you say reaches me more directly. Impressive! Thanks!
Glad to hear, more to come!
This video popped up in my recommended feed, I've never heard of The Punch Brothers or Chris Firey Music but I think this will be my weekend viewing.
Great band!
Excellent teacher and lesson......teaches in colors and feel..... opens up a whole new world
Thanks! New videos every Wednesday (and Monday occasionally).
Paulo Nutini is Scottish/Italian 😁 but good vid anyway keep it up
Chris, I'm an experienced player and this added to my understanding. You have a great way of teaching music, not just guitar technique. Cheers!
Glad to help!
You show on the chord diagram a square indicating a muted string. What do you mean by that? Thanks.
I, and many others, occasionally mute underneath one of our fretting fingers, un under finger mute, in that case under your middle finger, let it touch the A string barely and it’ll mute. I discuss that in the video too.
My strumming has been coming along pretty good so far (5 months). I'm using a classical guitar, no pic. But I've been working on the song 'The Highwayman'. I have the chords down okay and the tune. What I can't seem to find is a good strum for the song. I'll keep trying but it's frustrating.
I love that tune, a little more nuanced strumming with a double time feel, lots of folk/country use it. I’ll cover tips for that in a part 2 soon!
Well put. I do a lot of what you're saying subconsciously. You have shown years of experience in minutes to those who can grasp it. Well done! From Jamie Butler of the generation who stretched tapes and scratched records to learn our craft. I reckon you'd be a cool guy to jam with. Come to Clare South Australia, we have beer, wine, amazing food and many things you would love. But we love sunday jam sessions especially.
I’d love to! Thanks for watching.
Very helpful video. But the audio and video being out of sync is really distracting.

Thank you
An amazingly beautiful lesson! That’s was really helpful! Thanks
You're very welcome! Part 2 is here: ruclips.net/video/LIdIW_8FM6s/видео.html
Fantastic lesson. This came at the right time. Thanks much.😊
Perfect!
No your rong
It's the only way to learn!
Thank you
So enjoyed this lesson. Thank you Subscribed You are very down to earth and simple teaching technique. Not like others that make it difficult.
Really interesting thankyou.
Hello Chris first time watching you. I’m 65 years old retired around five years ago always wanted to learn to play electric guitar. I’ve been playing on my own because it cost too much to take lessons with that. I hope you have more videos for beginners like me, and I have trouble with the C cord no mater what I do . I always hit the bottom string. My strings are eight and he suggestions on the strings. I hope you have videos on beginners with the chords. Thanks.
The C chord is tricky! Might try muting the thickest with ring finger (or any finger). Also messing with your wrist placement can help the fretting hand with muting. Much trial and error is involved, and if you can find a decent sounding C to play some tunes with you can fine tune it, but best to jump in with some playing and applying it. I’ll be back with more beginner lessons for sure.
@@chrisfireymusic thanks I’m learning to try and stay with one person instead of me jump around watching so many videos. I like the way you teach. I hope we have lessons my goal at my age. I like to challenge myself and learn and playing the guitar is a hobby and they have fun, but sometimes it does get frustrating. I’m trying to ease and just enjoy and play,thank you my goal is to play rock ‘n’ roll example AC/DC songs and smoke on the water, which is good for beginners. That’s my goal again thank you.
This is exactly the pep talk I needed..........thanks
Glad to hear!
Every song you touched on. Has been taught on 100s of RUclips Tutorials.. kinda think you knew that though..
For sure, wanted to hit on how to work on them, strumming etc.
You manage to tie together a whole bunch of ideas into a coherent tapestry of knowledge and sound. Brilliant!
Thanks! Part 2 is here: ruclips.net/video/LIdIW_8FM6s/видео.html
dominant sevens for dayyyyys
Thank you. Awesome
This is awesome, you are so knowledgeable and a great teacher, glad i found you, subscribed immediately
I cant seem to get a light touch. Making all 6 strings sound like 1 string
Some gravity helps, as well as experimenting with and without a pick. I also have found practicing strumming in a subconscious way (watching TV or distracting yourself) can make it much easier to physically get more comfortable and a singular sound. I can do a PT 2 to this eventually to give more tips.
You look familiar
I have a feeling your name might be Chris

More to come! I have Pt. 2 coming out soon and several other keys I'm covering too.
That was wonderful and the sharing of the chord diagrams was very generous. Many thanks indeed for your time and effort which is greatly appreciated.
Thanks! More to Come soon
Lipsync is massively out
Not sure how/why that happened, I'll upload a newer version and throw it in the description ASAP

Its weird, have it in my tv and went to my phone to subscribe and on my tv right now its in sync and on the phone it isnt.
@@MikeTheEarGuy weird, I’ll double check future uploads on different sources. Thanks for watching!
Wow really clear, I look forward to learning with you 😁
Happy to hear that!

Thats amazing man! Love the way you make it seem so effortless and beautiful. Keep it going ❤

21:45 My rhythm wasn't spot on, but again, another thing to practice! Hard to talk and be rhythmic.
Fantastic!🙂
That's so sweet man, your wife surely appreciated your cover. Happy valentines for you and your wife, and for anyone reading this comment!!!!
Glad you enjoyed!
So relatable. I struggle with this too. "Fragility" is a good word. It makes me think of times I've shown up for gigs, really "NEEDING it to go well" in order to feel good about myself. Every now and again I'd be onstage with a musician, usually someone who grew up playing gospel in church who would play so well, so free and so fearlessly that it would put my gripped up and uptight butt to shame. These players were also ALWAYS the most humble and gracious personalities and were clearly were playing from a foundational spiritual place that I could not access. Werner calls this "the space," if I'm remembering correctly. It's still a challenge --- the ego is powerful --- but to recognize and practice presence with yourself and let go of the nagging voice that robs you of that presence is key to musical freedom. Every now and again I touch "the space," and am reminded of this powerful philosophy. Not jazz music, not rock music, not folk music... YOUR MUSIC
Lovely work on this Chris !
I loved this listening adventure! I am immediately going to apply this practice when I'm listening to music.
Glad to hear it! I’ll be back every Thursday with more lessons.
Guitar is off mike. Capo for remote keys?
The guitar will be plugged in the next video, and I agree, capoing is a powerful tool!
I really like this content, I need to hear this and I need to practice this. Point of feedback, though - it would be awesome if you mic'd up your guitar and/or had a pickup installed. Thanks for the lesson!
Thanks for the suggestion! I know it's a work in progress, but I will for next time.
