    Dude this is JUST what I wanted. There's a shanty in a favorite book of mine that has lyrics but no tune (obviously, seeing as how it's a book, haha). I've always wanted to be able to sing it. This is great, thank you.

    Very interesting how much of a difference orchestration/instrumentation makes. If your shanty was played on a springy surf guitar, it'd sound passably like a Western soundtrack!

    Hi! Love the video!
    If I wanted to do this in Eminor - would the chord progression be Eminor - Amajor - Bmajor? I'm struggling with working it out 😖

    • @danielsniff6405
      @danielsniff6405 2 года назад

      Hey, I know you posted this i months ago, but the progression in E minor would be E minor to D major to B major and back to E minor

    Do you maybe also have videos on explaining what minor i major VII etc mean?
    I have been in music a lot, but its the first time I see it like this ^^

    • @mantor360
      @mantor360 Год назад +1

      So im a little bit late but if someone want to know the answer
      i is for the first degree so if you take for example C major scale the first degree would be C.
      Now in a "normal" scale you normally have 7 notes.
      So there is
      i II III IV VI VII
      So a i major would be a first degree major chord. So by taking the C major scale exemple, it would be a C major chord.
