Honestly learned easier from this video than I did in my theory class at school I paid for. Wow.

Thank you so much! I've been reading Schoenberg's Fundamentals of Music compositions and this supplemented the text very well. :)

Hi David, thank you for creating these videos! It's helping me to better understand the theory that I'm reading in my textbooks. Continuing on the topic of form, do you know where I may be able to find resources to help better explain phrase deviations and framing functions?

Is it possible to have a four phrase period like this:

Do you have any videos about non chord tones?

Hello David . I really enjoyed watching your video ! Your video made me dig deeper and now I have a question that I deeply hope you can help me with that . Some pieces like nocturne op.9 no.2 by Chopin end with a perfect authentic cadence in the first 4 measure phrase which is antecedent and end again with a perfect authentic cadence the consequent 4 measure ! What shall I call that form ? 8 measure period or sentence !? In some piece the structure of motives and phrases are similar but composer didn’t end up the first 4 measure with either half cadence or perfect cadence !! For example in Brahms Waltz op.39 no.15 the first four measure ends up with chord IV + II and then it goes to Tonic ! But based on your video it should be whether an imperfect cadence or half cadence ! So what is it called !? Or any cadence can appear beside imperfect and half !? ( in antecedent and consequent phrases )

Hi David. What textbook do you use when teaching your class on musical form?
