Mark McCarrell >>> I dunno man.... yes I see your point, but sometimes speed in the fewest words possible isn’t always the name of the game.

I think today’s society is too enthralled with a lack of delayed gratification, and your comment merely feeds into this. That whole “lead, follow, or get out of the way” mentality that people have, really irks me.
if we learn theory like chords, intervals, modes and so many others, we can apply it to any instrument. we just need to know HOW to put them to use cause we can’t play a piano like a guitar. happy practicing!
I am trying to learn FL Studio, in which i should know basic music theory and piano knowledge so i started to watch your chords for beginner playlist. Now i am ready to make my first song. Thank you soo much you helped me alot.
Very helpful even to me as a beginning 63-year-old ukulele player who took many piano lessons as a child. I’m often helped by picturing piano keys in my mind. I really appreciate the graphical highlighting you do to make it clear which keys you are using!
Dude, you are such a great teacher. I just watched the whole chords for beginners playlist back to back, took practically no time at all, and feel fully confident in building chords from here on. It might take me a few seconds if you said one to me, but you gave all the building blocks in such an easily understandable way. Thank you so much.
Hey, What if Cmsus2 and Cmsus4? Cmsus2 will be notes are C,Db,G? And Cmsus4 would be C,E,G which means going back to normal C chord? Thank you for the lesson.
@@Nathan-ch7hu There's no such chord as a Cmsus 2 or Cmsus4. Why? Because a minor chord by definition contains the 3rd degree of a minor scale, while a sus chord by definition does not contain the 3rd degree of the scale. The 3rd is replaced by the 4th or the 2nd degree in a sus chord - that's what a sus chord is! So even if you had started off with a minor chord, once you made it a 'sus' chord the third is no longer a part of chord so you end up with a plain old sus4 or sus2 chord. Hope that helps.
I found it kind of difficult to understand when am I going to move the third 1 hard step or 2 hard steps, what does that depend on? Since sometimes it is explained as 1st, 3rd and 5th and some others as 3-2 (gaps) :'(
I watched 3 of your videos so far lesson 1 2 and 3 , you are such a gifted teacher. I have learned so much and you made it so easy . May God bless you with abundance.
I just watched this whole playlist taking notes for myself. Thank you so much! I needed this not for playing the piano, but for figuring out the chords on the harp :) You helped me a lot with these short yet super informative lessons. Love it!
brilliant, having half an idea to have a basic understanding of chords. real easy to get your head round, im a nube when it comes to piano and chords structures and this has really got me stepping of in the right direction.
For some reason, I associate these chords with those scenes in motivational sports movies when the coach is giving life advice to the team. Thanks for the vid 👍
Also one thing I notice: the major triad sound happier, minor triad sadder, and in the same way the sus4 has more half notes spaced out in the lower part and sounds happier, like a major triad does which also has more half notes spaced out in the lower part, and a sus2 sounds sadder and it has fewer half notes in the lower part like a minor.
Wow! man, you are a great teacher, I learned a lot of basics in a short time straight to the point and clear no roller coaster explanations. thanks man.
Replace 3rd with 2 (sus2) or 4(sus4). 4:50 example of progression withoi and with. You should totally watch the full vid. Comment is a time mark for accessibility.
Sir: You are the "Mint" the real deal. The time is 4:26 in the Video where you resolve the CSus4 Chord with the Third. Will you please tell me if I got it right first you play the C in the left hand together with the CFA in the right hand. Then you play the C in the left after CFA in the right hand; then you play the C in the left hand with CDG in the right hand then C in the left hand again and then CEG. Will you please inform the order of the chords and the notes as you play them. Thank you for sharing your genius. Respectfully, R
I have a question. How do you just play different rhythms when play two different chords? My teacher tells me but it just doesn't make any sense. Is there any videos or if you have any explanation of how to do these things.
Is it true in all cases to achieve a Sus2 the middle note is moved back by 2 semitones and to achieve a Sus4 the middle note is moved forward by only 1 semitone. Thank you.
I'm a little confused. You say: “to resolve to a 5th below” - but an Fmaj7 chord is not a 5th of Cmaj. You play a Csus4, then a Csus2, and then resolve to an Fmaj7. I can’t figure out how the Fmaj7 is a 5th. A 5th of what? “F” in the Cmaj Scale is a 4th. Please clarify. Thanks.
Hi Patrick, when I say it resolves to a 5th below, you have to imagine the C chord being the 5th. If you were playing in the key of F, C would be the 5th... therefore F is a 5th below C. Hope this helps :)
I now understand how you got there. The terminology seems a bit confusing. You're basically saying that a suspended chord can be considered a 5th chord, and that it resolves to its major below. Or it can be considered a derivative of its major, and can resolve to its major. No need for further explanation, I think I understand. Thanks. FYI: I really enjoy your lessons. Very informative.
You seem to have gotten this down but lemme just add how I got my head around this when I needed it back in my guitar playing days. :) It was explained to me that this is what is called an "inverted interval" (google will tell you more) and when you invert a perfect interval you again get a perfect interval. In this case, a 5th below is a 4th above. As you noticed, F isn't the 5th of C when going upward but it is a 4th of C when going upward. This 4th above is indeed equivalent to 5th below. HTH!
4:10 - so you resolve on the 5th below, thus from C to F. - Or from A it gets resolved to D. Correct? And it it's a B chord? ---- oh, did my own research - then it's an Es chord, which you can easily read off the circle of the fifths.... BOOM!! I love it when the brain does its magic thing, building connections.. guys, I think I've just learned something!!
Heyyy !! I'm looking this great tuto from France and hopping there will be an other tuto of blues or jazz links ! Your tuto are so clear and so nice, continue like that !
Hey Thomas, good to hear you are enjoying the lessons :) I sure do have other lessons on blues & jazz. Here is a one on the blues scale: ruclips.net/video/CjJwxtahGtw/видео.html And here is a jazz one on a 251 chord progression: ruclips.net/video/BjN2dU83Y9w/видео.html Hope you find them useful :)
Think it's because it goes up in the scale instead of the keyboard. The following key on that scale was a semitone away but in the previous one it was 1 tone away
Thanks. I understand what the chord is, but as an aspiring composer, the really annoying thing is knowing when and how to integrate it in a song (same with all music theory principles so far).. i suppose for now the only thing I can do is try random things until I find what sounds good together.
Music is sus in general. Thank you, schools are terrible at teaching this important stuff in music. Been playing my sax for 9 years and I still struggle with chords
How do you control the pacing so well like in the last piece you were fast but in the end you transitioned to slow without any abrupt change... I am not able to do that. just practice ig?
Also will this series still continue? And thanks a lot....amazing videos really! I wanted to learn "lit" from Koe No Katachi or A Silent Voice but couldnt figure how to do the chords... This series is really awesome and helped a lot!👍
If you are in C major key and you want to keep inside the key notes and make a sus4 of the F chord, the B would be natural, not flattened. Is that still an Fsus 4 or it has another name? That confuses me a bit.

Why when you do a sus4 you go up a semitone but when you do a sus2 you go down a tone? Sorry for my English

What about a Gsus maj7? What do I have to do there? Please answer quickly, I need it tomorrow morning!
That doesn't exist. Sus implies there is no 3rd and major implies you have a major 3rd. It's either major or sus, can't be both.
i get everything except when you say any sus chord can be resolved by resolving it to the 5th below. What exactly do you mean by the 5th below?
