  • You only really need music theory if you are in a hurry to sound more musical. And luckily you actually don't need a lot.
    Diatonic really just means, "from one key". And while that sounds a bit constrained, understanding how keys are generated, and then being able to really leverage all that information, is the first step to really understanding how music actually works on your instrument.

    Every week, more clarity. And, as someone who's just finished the Major Scale Mastery course with Chris, everything he mapped out in this lesson was clear as a bell. Before the course, this would have been so much juicy information to wade into. After the course, diving into the information is like gathering with old friends. Gathering together....to jam.

    Love your content, Chris! EVERYTHING about your presentations is exceptional! Keep Up the Great Work! 👍🎸☮😎 Gotta' ask... what's your take on the playing of Mateus Asato (and what's up with these guys named Mateus)?

    • @curiousguitarist
      @curiousguitarist  11 месяцев назад +1

      So far, all the Mateus's seen amazing to me! I really love both of them, but Asato really speaks to my preferences a bit more.
      Incredible players out there these days!

    CHRIS, Blues uses Non-Diatonic Theory, are you going to make a Non-Diatonic lesson? a YT lesson about the differences between an Etude and an Interlude

      In all my blues videos I do reference that the dominant blues progression is non-diatonic. It actually upsets folks a bit :)

    I have friends who will try to point out that Paul McCartney never studied theory as a pushback against having to understand even the rudiments, even though it is apparent Sir Paul intuitively knows tons of theory because of his musical genius.
    My answer is always, "Yeah, but if you were like Paul McCartney, we'd already know it..."

    • @curiousguitarist
      @curiousguitarist  11 месяцев назад

      PERFECT!
      Also, might be good to mention that Sir Paul never had to hold down a job, so he spent his childhood learning to play...all day every day.
      Then he played in clubs in Germany for 5-8 hours per day for years.
      If you do THAT, you won't need theory either!

      @mvp019 11 месяцев назад

      @@curiousguitarist Exactly - only I would say you just absorb theory without knowing it is theory when you play that much and have the thirst and drive he had. And he could do that because God gave him a gift that few have; I could play 24/7 and never come to 20% of what he has.
