I swear I'm so stupid when it comes to music theory but this has actually helped me so much. Thank you for your work!

It's so cool how you can hear it then immediately know if it's syncopated or not. Like we evolved to like music. I wonder why most animals don't grove to music 🤔

I'm learning to play bass guitar and these theory-type lessons are still extremely useful! Thank you!

Can’t believe this video only has 100k views. Awesome to understand the theory behind why we enjoy music the way we do!!

me a 12 years classically trained pianist watching this in an incognito tab

I'm a guitar player. This helps me more than some guitar videos. Good job!

You are a very good teacher, with clear examples demonstrated which i quickly understood the idea! You deserves more subs and views!!!

Lucidly explained! Thanks.

Thank you so much, the video was very helpful!

Very clearly described. Now I understand syncopated rhythm. Thank you!

So helpful, thank you!

Very interesting. Thank you.

Excellent... cheers from Toronto!!!

Best video about syncopation. Very comprehensive, thank you.

pretty great job explaining this, it wasn't exactly what I was searching for but this video was great

You helped me with my homework, thank you sooo much!!!

Excellent explanation. Thank you.

Best video for syncopation, thank you :)

Excellent lesson! thanks!

love your videos!

:-) A real *_"great good fun"_*_ teacher!_ cheers

😊👍🏻Thank you very much for your 🎹 lessons 🇨🇺🎶🎵

i finally understand it! Thank you

Wow..you got one of the best explanations of syncopation!!

Thanks for this very simple explanation that no one else seemed to be able to explain 😍

And the Beat Goes On.

Thank you !! This is very helpful for my Music assessment

Thank you so much for this! Great lesson for someone who is trying to really understand this concept.

This is great, thanks 😊

Awesome!

I'm studying violin but i've learned a lot with your tips! Thanks from Brazil!

It's really hard to find something on KZfaq about this that doesn't assume you know this already or that you don't need to know this

What is the cool music notation software that you are using? So nice to be able to scribble notes down on the staff and then it automatically rewrites them neatly for you!

This video is the Best.

Really good thank you

I've been composing a lot of syncopated jazz fusion in 5/4 and it sucks because i can't sightread it myself. And looking through the vid i might just need to practice more with a metronome.

Thankfully ❤

Thank you Sir 😇

Hi, I love this site. I stumbled on it while trying to find out what syncopation is. I listen constantly, but I have NO musical ability. My organ teacher quit me. After 4 years taking guitar lessons, I admitted defeat and quit. As I grew older I discovered the problem, I'd do anything to play an instrument...except practice. BUT, I was at least able to understand syncopation. Thanks, for the time you spent putting the lesson together. I bookmarked the site, since these musical questions come up fairly often in my wandering brain. I think that if I'd had these lessons 60 years ago when I was trying to learn to play, my engineering talents might have persuaded my to work at it harder.

Thanks!

Thank you

great pedagogical feat in this first video I watch of yours, very informing/educative for me [was amateur violinist 18 years ago, god I'm an elder Millennial :/ ] and a professor myself, but without the shortcuts you employ (for beginners for it not become a memorized multiplication table thing) because college different audience than public in youtube/enthusiasts

Starting at :20; Why is beat 2 elongated from beat 1 in the 4/ 4 and the 3/ 4? Wouldn't that throw off the timing? I can't read music, but I can see that discrepancy. It looks like that in itself would syncopate the rhythm.

Clearest vid I've seen so far on syncopation. Thanks.

8:54 wouldn't you hold that tied quarter note until the 2 of the second measure? The way it's shown feels like there's an eighth rest in between the 1 and 2 of the second measure. Just want to make sure I understand ties correctly

Why didn’t I find you nearly four years ago when I started playing. I can actually count now! I’m not stupid.

This has explained very well. My problem is coordination between left and right hand. I can play the right hand by itself and it's good. Same way with the left hand. The problem is when i play both. Left hand is a little behind. As my old teacher said. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! LOL

Could you please explain the syncopated song “He’s got the whole world in his hands “!

First, bro!!

Has this anything to do with The Syncopated Monkey?

Thank You , as a guitar player I would play the syncopated notes on the upstroke, correct ??

May i ask a Question? Our music teacher gave us a homework like this: He showed is the First and last syncopated Rhythm. He dient Even explained how it works and we should just complete the Rest. And i dont have a clue how..?

Example for song is babymetal syncopation

Should I always count like 1 and so on when reading any sheet music?

Why are rests so scary to write LOL it's like I'm doing something wrong if I am leaving a blank space but it's quite the opposite.

Why is there a and at the end doesn't that make 5

Awesome lesson!!! You should main pac man in super smash bro’s bro :))

Thanks. Actually i'm here after little mix's sweet melody 😂

Why is it still called 3/4 if there are only 3 beats per bar? What’s the 4 represent?

Given this a essentially about sound, the recording level is absurdly low. Strained to hear.

Can I say Red River Rock Rhythm is syncopated? 1& 2& 3&. 4&???

Does anyone else feel like he talks like Andy from the office?

⚠️ 0:00 epilepsy warning

good video but harp ftw lmao

Dımtıs dımtıs

Why not just keep music reading simple as it is...syncopation is just confusing.

Why is this so quiet? I can't even hear you talking half the time with all volumes up :O

In the world of metronomes syncopations are illegal!

Why introduce different aspects ,stay on the topic,ie syncopation, I'm off.

This guy does not know how to explain things instead of talking he should play us an example of syncopated beats and nonsense competed beats this way the students can hear the difference and then understand the explanation we cannot use words to teach musical theory.
