W❤a❤t❤c❤h❤i❤n❤g from SWAZILAND 🇸🇿❤️✌️. Thanks for the free tutorial. The best thanks you sir
Cats a Bot😂no lie
so good
the collab I didn't know I needed
😄🙌
Wait. David Bennett and Pianote in one place??? We don’t deserve 😭
Knowing something may be a talent or the result of hard work but knowing how to teach something to grasp the attention of the audience and make it understand is a blessing, and always a pleasure to watch.
It's understandable
Best music teachers on YT: David Bennett - Piano and theory. Ian Stitch - Guitar and soloing. I have no relationship to either one of them, either financial or otherwise. They are both just really, really good teachers.
The inverted pedal point immediately brought to mind the Johnny Cash version of The Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt"... the G note rings out over the vi-IV-I-V (Am-F-C-G) in the chorus creating much the effect shown here albeit with the progression rearranged.
Seriously, this is the compendium of chord composing techniques! Thanks David for making this a free tutorial! Appreciate it!
I love to play around with the 1-4-5 chord progression. This man is basically telling you guys how to improvise and make something beautifully designed out of something simple. This is cool to see the explanations for the things I already do 😮
"This man is basically telling you guys how to improvise and make something beautifully designed out of something simple"
I wasn't sure about the purpose of the video. Thanks a lot for the explanation.
I've seen a lot of videos on music theory and this makes a lot of what I've heard and seen over the years fall into place so to speak. Thanks a lot for this.
This was really educational. I'm going to try to incoporate this into my daily jam sessions. I hope my family notices the improvement in sound. Explaining the suspense, and relief was such a brilliant way of putting it. Thank you young man.
You are very special. Your style of teaching is so simple, yet very effective. You could easily make this so much more complicated, but you explain it so elequently, that complex concepts actually make sense. One off humble genius😊
Couldn't agree more ❤
Thanks, Mommie
I disagree. I was screaming at the screen for the guy to finish the progression at every level. I found it very frustrating that he didn't complete the progression at first, let everyone hear it a few times, and then talk about it. To play only bits before giving a lecture, drove me nuts and I wasn't able to concentrate.
After this video, I understood so much more of what I was hearing in songs! Realizing now a lot of the passing chords that I didn't understand are just flavors for the same simple chord progression!! You are a great teacher, thank you for making it so clear and simple!
And the beautiful chord progressions are made like this. Amazing . Thank you David. Pianote thank you all.
When David played the G# diminished I literally audibly went “ooooooh” like it sounded so positively spicy
This is an excellent lesson. I am a beginner and it really opens my eyes to writing progressions. Thanks!
The “Let it be” progression.
Always love the passing chord practice. Something I need to think about a lot. Thanks
David is the best. Nice to see him here.
This video was extremely helpful to me. Thank you for presenting the content in such a clear (and beautifully played!) way, and never getting unnecessarily complicated. What though-provoking ideas I will now go apply to things I have been playing for years. Many, many thanks.
This arrangement of chords is what jumpstarted my piano playing journey. I still can’t read notes very well, but I can play whatever I hear very quickly if I can just figure out the chord arrangement.
Hey, It's David! This man is a brilliant enthusiast and analyst of musical theory. Great talent score!
Pianote has the best teachers. I love David's way of teaching. How have I not come across his RUclips channel before now?
I have played a lot of Flash games in me younger days, and Red Ball 2 had a particular track that used this chord progression. Turns out it's called "It's Reggae You Know" and I just love it.
You're a great teacher David, thanks
The pedal tone was very pleasant surprise, and love the sound of the diminished
This is by far the best piano instruction video I have ever seen! So well explained
That was awesome. A beautiful blend of theory and practice. Very well done.
Thousands of videos trying to explain it, that's the only one that worked for me. Thanks a lot.
That's a clean and clear explanation on transiting between chords and making it colorful. Will be great if we have more levels on this with respect to the passing chords and special chords. Great Work Buddy
How do you write C# or Bb in Romanian scale?
@@diarbeatz
What exactly are you asking?
i mean if the root note is black note, how could you represent it in Romanian scale? Like, all the white notes are numbered from 1 to 7. What about the black notes?
@@Persun_McPersonson
@@diarbeatzit’s the same for the black notes. It’s all about the scale you’re playing in, which will determine the note numbers.
Thanks so much for making this video. I'll spend the next 10 years practicing this now.
What a bonus having David & pianote together excellent lesson , thank you all 😊
David, that is just fantastic. So special. It answers lots of my questions about piano arrangements, I've heard over the years!!!
David Bennett is brilliant!!
This is the best teaching I've ever had when it comes to piano lesson.
Subscribed already ❤️
I check out the guys channel too he always does stuff like this 👍
Hey brother, this is actually really helpful and well-explained. Also didn’t add too much salesy stuff is nice.
Clear examples, not jumping instantly to complicated chords, etc. Great job!
David is as always. Informative, quiet and very easy to follow or understand.
Well the pause button does help yea, but music theory itself is amazing.
Mr. Bennett just helps to get it onto everybody. Great video.
As a bass player, root note one at a time, this has really helped me understand my place in the mix. Thank you!
Yes. Of course. Root note. Who would have guessed? But you must be a bassist, so I assume your just slow on the up-take. JK, BTW.
@@jamespeebles9781 Well aren't you a nice person.
Indeed. Shows the power of a bassist to influence the entire harmonic direction of a song. For good when tastefully done, terrible when we screw up since we take the whole ensemble with us lol
This is a very good explanation of chord progressions and the logic in choosing the right inversion of chords to create a smoother and more harmonic music. The reason it sounds better than just playing the basic chords is due to the vertical and horizontal relationship between the different notes. This is called contrapunct, or counterpoint (point vs point). When you're playing the bass note and add 3 more notes using your right hand, think of it as a choir consisting of 4 singers: bass, tenor, alto and soprano. If you look at it like that, every singer has a unique melody and together they form chords. When you use the right inversions and don't jump from one basic chord to another you actually create a more balanced melody for each singer 😎
If you want to learn more, I suggest you buy the Bach Chorale book which is the holy grail of western harmony and advance from there. 😀

Loved this. Very helpful!
Yes! So fun to be able to expand out on chord progressions as understanding and technical prowess increase! :)
Omg I loved this. Diminished chords are a game changer!
This is a great video showing the complexity that can be achieved using simple tools: 1 cord progression. Thanks for this.
First video I've watched from your channel, and man, such clear explanations!
You are a wonderful teacher, David. Thank you for another great video.
Thanks, I needed this. Awesome tutoring.
Thank you David Benett
The F/G can also be thought of as a G11, functions as a dominant V11, at the end of a verse. The Mowtown sound.
Thank you. Basically in the video it's a F9 chord without the 7th interval.
David bennet is amazing at explaining this topic!
Great video! The chord he played at 13:14 is an Fadd9 since he is also playing the 3rd of the chord
Why not an add2? Its played at the 2nd and not thé 9th, technicly..
@@gregoirebertho They're basically the same thing, but technically with chord extensions like this it's called the ninth :)
It's just a tradition to call it add9, keeping in mind, that european chords are made with triads (1-3-5-7-9)@@gregoirebertho
Yes but if we say sus2 and not add2, normally it means the third is not played so their is not this tension made by having the major 2nd and the 3rd
This is a good conversation!
Please be aware that the merits of this conversation COULD be lost on beginners and those who are less experienced...which seems to be his target audience.
Just an observation. 🙏🏾
Dude. Seriously the best description of intervals on RUclips. You're a great teacher. 👍👍👍👍
Very helpful video! Thank you!
YESSSSSSS!!!!!!! I LOVE DAVID BENNET AND PIANOTE! such a great collab
In 4 decades as a musician (primarily lead guitar/drums), this is the most worthwhile 14:13 I have seen for keys, ... ever.
David, I love your stuff and have already learned a lot from you. It was a great surprise to see that you8 are one of the Pianote instructors! I have been with Drumeo for 3 yrs and since they combined Drumeo, Guirareo, Singio and Pianote all thogether, I have access to Pianote so I will be checking our your courses.
This lesson is great, showing how to take the same chords and by small tweaks, spicing them up and actually changing to whole flavor and feel. Thanks David for another great video.
That's the best explanation I've seen on sus and diminished chords. Thank you!
We’re glad it was helpful! ✨
I needed this❤
Great way to explain this concept. Thanks.
Excellent lesson! Thank you.
the diminished chord made it sound amazing
Ah yes, barry harris' infamous 6th diminshed
Fantastic video. Great work.
Great and clear explanations for us that want to understand the basic theories. Well done sir.
Lovely. Everything! The info, the design, the velocity of explanation, great job! Thanks
- This is explicit and easy to assimilate. Thanks for sharing your gift.
It felt like “variations on Let It Be” for 14 minutes. Good stuff!
thought of it too
Thank you. Great lesson.
Thanks for your commitment ❤
Love it!!!!!!!! An excellent teacher ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Thank you!!😊
Really helpful... Thank you
Very helpful!
Thank you!
🌞👍
Very refreshing to see a video that shows how to do something in 5 different levels in which they don't get completely crazy after level 1 haha
This is so good! 💚👍🏼🥳 You are the chord-progression King! 👑 And this sounds ahmazing! 😇😊
Well illustrated man, thank you
Amazing video! Thank you so much
Excellent!
Thank you!
🌞👍
This was more helpful for me than I expected! I already understood the concepts, but gained some deeper understanding of some aspects. Thank you, Musora and David for joining forces in this collaboration! I really have benefited from the two videos I've watched so far!
Beautiful. Just learnt something easy and great for a beginner 😊
Was looking for this 3:00 for a very long time ..thanks ❤
Wow! Wonderful, thanks a lot
This is much more detailed than it appears. This will be useful.
I’m loving the new ending as well!
This was incredibly helpful
Love adding the left hand tonic to give depth and inversion for different sound more pleasant if you will. Thank you for this excellent video…..
Thank you very much for the clear instruction. I had thought I wouldn’t see you again.
Real nice. Great ideas and very well explained. Great music teacher.
Bravo, what a great video.
All clear sir! Great one. Thanks.
Masterful. Wonderful. Thanks.
You help me appreciate music. Thank you
thanks, this is excellent!
Wonderful, clear lesson. One might even say you're "🎶...speaking words of wisdom, let it be" 😉
You are such a great teacher, explaing it in such detail ❤, now I know better and have more confidence to try it out.❤❤😊
Maaan, this is so surreal, I just felt my tear glands being poked by that G# in the diminished... what a revelation!
Inspiring lesson with Intelligible explanation of sus and dim chords roles in progression. Thank you!
Thank you
Man i m trying to play my old organ time to time for ages. I watch some videos on youtube and try to play them. But i found out that i have not passion for this because it comes for me as imitating something with nonsense. I ve watched your video and understood the logic behind the notes and playing piano. Just a month passed after seen your video and i made a real progress on playing piano. Thank you very very much
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be! 🎵
Nice work .
wow. it all made sense to me now. kudos
