@@jr1648 Yes, and don’t get me wrong… Seventh chords and their derivatives are lots of fun to play with, but he made it sound like those are the only chords you will ever need in playing piano. Which obviously isn’t the case.
@@carlbaumeister3439 Fair enough. The way I see it, those are the standard 7th chords. Not including triads and extended harmony, they encompass all the 7th chords you will encounter. Definitely not all you need to know for music theory tho.
That's everything to know? What notes make a major? What notes make a minor? What notes make it a 7th? What context would you use these chords? Relative keys? According to your music theory, are these 5 chords always played like that? In that order? Do the root notes need to change?
5 scales major/minor Harmonic minor Melodic minor Octatonic diminished Whole tone Make sure and know the major blues and minor blues scales and all 7 modes of the major/minor scale. Along with those 5 chords, all invetsions and positions. Thats the basics.
This isn’t super helpful, here’s what actually helps: Learning the notes on a piano, it’s way easier to visualize theory on a keyboard than on a string or wind instrument Learning scales. Learn to apply these to both the keyboard and your instrument, and try to use scale degrees more than note names (12345) Learn three note chords (triads), these are the building blocks of harmony Learn extensions of chords, 7ths, 9ths, 11ths, 13ths Each of these topics is its own massive category and should be given plenty of time and study. It seems like a lot but it starts to link together quite nicely after a bit. Also this isn’t the only way to do it, it’s how I learned theory and it helped me a lot.
Dude/ those are major scale diatonic chords / youre missing minor major / and your missing all your 6th chords/ And all your altered chords...so youre not even CLOSE about ALL you need to know
A diminished 7th interval. So you take the the seventh and flatten it twice. For example in F: F->E = 7 F->Eb = b7 F->Ebb = bb7 Ebb sounds the same as D, it's just called that because of theory reasons.
Please don’t claim to be making a video with “all you need to know about music theory” and tell us literally nothing that is actually true or useful. These are popular chord types- not that popular though, maybe add major and minor chords in there?0.0 And maybe it would be useful (at least for someone who is taking this video as “all they need to know about music theory” to actually explain how those chords work and how to figure them out.
Dude. That's nowhere near "everything" you need to know about music theory. You need to know Intervals. Dynamics. Intonation Tempo. Rhythm. Form. Transcription..... On and on. This is useless. Calm down and teach 1 thing like a perfect fourth.
@@lumi2015 don't mistake harmony brother. Chords are vital parts of music, and can be called all of music. At least in the west, since we have the idea of Key's and we emphasize more tones than others. Even melody can be linked to harmony, and so can rhythm.
@@simpumoon Western music perpetuates hyper fixation on harmony but as I said, harmony isn’t ALL of music. As the commenter said; dynamics, intonation, tempo, form, RHYTHM.

@@simpumoon Music. Music can exist without harmony. And that is such a western thing to say, “music is harmony”. Especially for other cultures of music.
"Only 5 major chord types"
All 7th chords 💀
most of them werent even major 😐
What about non-7th chords?
I think he meant common chord types. major wasnt the best choice of words... bv he definitely wasnt taljing about chords with a major quality.

5 scales
major/minor
Harmonic minor
Melodic minor
Octatonic diminished
Whole tone
Make sure and know the major blues and minor blues scales and all 7 modes of the major/minor scale.
Along with those 5 chords, all invetsions and positions.
Thats the basics.
why was this so stressful? chill and get your piano tuned.
It is in tune
It’s the 7th of the chord building tension.
Augmented chord are everywhere, m7#5 is a common chord too
Can you show the piano from above view so I can see the notes you are playing?
Hey man! I really want a career and Music I’m in between going back to college from nursing or Music/ audio engineering. Any advice?
All I could pay attention was:
“Half Dim”
and
“Fully Dim”
Bro should audition for Dawson’s Creek
Please try nights by frank ocean on piano
I guess major chords went out to lunch
Dunno what you're talking about, aint no such thing as major chords bro. There's only these ones.
No sus chords?
every single thing you ever need to know lmao
Cool, so all chords are major chords now?
Its useful to know those, and If You do You dont really need to know the rest, but its not *everything*
tune your piano

Here's how to limit your playing to the harmonic style of 18th century European musicians.

His language was piss poor, if he knew waht he was talking about ,he MEANt the five diatonic types/ he had minor 7th in there by the way.
lolz
Is this really ‘everything you need to know’? That doesn’t sound right 😂
I find this sus
Full Diminished chords and diminished 7 chords are more so a type of minor chord, because you’re stackin 3 or 4 minor thirds on top of eachother
Can you learn a standard
What he means is that there are only 5 7th chord types
Edit: minor major 7 🤦🏻
Jazz musicians smh
@@vixdy4641 shit I forgot minor major 7. Other than that there are only 6
@@mememan5466 and sus 7ths
