A tongue in cheek question! Why are the orchestra and the conductor allowed a cheat sheet, but the pianist is not?

Clever, clear and sober, excellent teacher and class

It's been 10 years and he still replies whenever theres a new comment ❤

How would one write chords in a pentatonic scale? Is it like the diatonic scales, where one uses the third and fifth intervals above the root note, or are chords in the pentatonic scale built differently?

Is it just me (a learner pianist at the early stages!), or does the natural minor seem to evoke a kind of “medieval strolling minstrel” kind of atmosphere about it compared with the harmonic minor?

Very, very interesting! Thank you, dear Maestro!

Always great and comprehensive classic material. It's a pure joy to be a guest on your channel. The example with the mediant leading to the interrupted cadence and then implying the subtonic is excellent. The suspension at the end is a really good practice to preserve the seamless chord flow. I love these elements.

Yet another great and inspiring video! It’s interesting how you can think of modulations from a melodic perspective. You would still have the chords in mind, I guess, but once you think of it e.g. as a sequence, it immediately makes sense melodically and you end up with something purposeful and consistent.

another excellent example, thank you.

VERY GOOD LECTURE

Nice progression in natural to harmonic minor using third thru suspension❤

C9 to Dm also makes a nice resolution from a "backdoor" dominant chord to the tonic.

I have an interesting question: In fugue, would modal writing be an instance of free imitation or noncanonical imitation?

too basic.. Anyone who knows what harmonization is knows what the scale is.

Here is another way to look at the differences between these four kinds of triad: Major triad: a minor third stacked on top of a major third like C-E-G, Minor triad: a major third stacked on top of a minor third like C-Eb-G, Augmented triad: a major third stacked on top of a major third like C-E-G#, Diminished triad: a minor third stacked on top of a minor third like C-Eb-Gb.

Big fan of natural minor. Good to borrow chords from too while in a major key. Love the bVII, bIII, and v. Really like that 4-3 suspension 🙏🏼

It might be interesting to end in D7 and go on?

Great thank you 😊

It's amazing how dissonant fifths can sound 😸

Thank you, Mr Greene. This is instructive and easy to absorb. You have answered the questions concerning how to begin composing canons.

Perfect topic. Thank you.

So, even if a melody in a major key is harmonized with diatonic minor chords, the tonality remains major, right? Or tonality changes to minor? Also, is there any connection between the dependent/independent melody topic and this issue?

Great lesson, thank you!

Thank You Sir!

If I were to listen to the melody without harmony, I would answer the question 'What key is it?' as G major. Most likely, I would also harmonize the melody in G major. However, the absence of the 6th and 7th degrees allows us the opportunity to harmonize it in minor, I understand. So, if this melody were presented to me already harmonized in minor(without #6 or #7) and I were asked about the key, my answer would still be G major. I would perceive the chord degrees in your video minor harmonization as vi-vi-vii-vi-ii-III-vi. It's a complete paradox. Can you help? Please... Kind Regards.

I am most confused about 2/4 and 2/2, where both are the same beats!

I am 81 and just started composing on the piano 6 months ago having spent my whole life not having anything to do with music of any kind and when I started listening to Music Matters it was all Greek to me. I have a lot of catching up to do and I want to Thank Garreth for helping me

Me costó dar con la explicación exacta de este tema, muchas gracias!

In most popular music I see the third chord as a minor chord (iii). I came upon a few songs with a major third chord (III), and I really liked it. Glad to see it works on so many levels. Thanks.

great video. Natural minor is just Aeolian Mode writing in disguise. Always fun. Thanks!

God bless you master

You explained this very well, I understand the difference.

Merci beaucoup.

beautiful!!

Those ascending 1st inversion chords remind me a lot of Alfredo Casella's Cello Sonata No. 2

It was actually very beautiful music.

thanks for your vid! so is hickory dickory 3/4 or 6/8 - I see it in sheet music both ways - I think its 6/8, but in 6/8 you are packing a bar pretty full - are there guidelines?

What was that at the end, 6:37 it became better somehow,is that whats called arpeggios?

Fascinating! First example schema: Mozart Jupiter symphony,

Can you do a video on how to figure out the key signature after writing a melody

I don’t know why… I love the sound of hearing C Major to F# Major. I still don’t understand tritones. I just know I like hearing that #4 whenever possible.

Excellent video!

Thanks for examining Music Schema, Gareth!

That was really interesting. The Bb at the end of the second measure is sweet. I'd never much considered the natural minor before. Now I want to play around with it.

Thank you, very inspirations! ❤😊

Your videos are pure gold

Wow !!! amazing lesson! thank you Sir
