@@TheEricTimothy You made the comment about how the phrase was beautifully stated (which, I agree, it was). I was attempting to be humorous by playing on the example that Andrew had used in the video to explain how your brain works once it understands new words and concepts. ("You're a natural at it. *holds up cup* "You just look at this and your brain goes, "Oh, it's a cat.") Which was funny because it was not just incorrect, but stated so plainly- a juxtaposition of his previous phrase that you quoted. I was attempting my own juxtaposition by replying with a quote from Andrew that is also one of the most boring sentences possible.

Just watch this over and over. Take notes to get each step. DON'T try to remember all of this at once. Don't move on until you have each step in your head. Test yourself a bit each time. This is probably the best short theory course I've seen. Forget that Andrew is talking a little fast, just stop the video and refer to your notes before going on. You'll actually have some piano chops at the end, and stop trying to connect it to guitar playing, at least in the beginning. Chord inversions are a lot different on guitar, and often more difficult to play.

I thought I was just hopelessly untalented at piano and stupid when it came to music theory, so I dropped the musical school at Grade 5 and never went back. But I always wanted to learn to play so have been watching different music videos and never understood anything, until today. I finally understand what the numbers mean... And what is the relationship between key and scale. No one explained it to me in the musical school, we just had to memorise each chord by heart and identify it by ear... Which I could never do. I honestly feel I can start picking piano up again now. Thank you so much. You kinda healed me from childhood trauma, in some sense

I have puttered with keyboards for 50 years learning favorite songs "by ear". I can laboriously decode written music into notes. I have always wondered why my experience has not resulted in much of an ability to improvise. Now I see that without theory this experience gave me the ability to mimic without providing insight beyond my own sense of what "sounds right" into what makes a nice lick or progression. Without having yet gone over to play since watching the video I am certain I am ALREADY a better musician than I was 30 minutes ago! Thank you Andrew! I will bookmark this page and practice!

This is to you if you’re lost: I am new to music theory, but i understood the whole 30 minute video. I had to rewind 10 sec back multiple times until i finally understood what he meant. 1: You dont need to understand the whole video, only the first part. Because if you practice the first part, the second part will become much easier to understand. Dont fool yourself to think you have to get everything right away, take one thing at a time. 2: If you do not have a keyboard at home, you cant really practice. It will get so much harder to do so atleast, so if you do not have it, buy it. It will be worth it 3: if you want to practice music theory, you have to do it everyday. Decide how many minutes per day and DO NOT skip, because then you’ll skip more often until you finally dont do it anymore. If you do it everyday at a certain time of day, it will become a routine. For me, i do it everyday after i get home from work for 30 minutes, not more, not less. I dont give myself bullshit excuses for not doing it, and neither should you. After a week i already began to notice improvements, which only motivates me. 4: stop making excuses and do not even think about giving up. You wont regret it. Good luck friend

If it's still offered in the summer, I probably will pay the $300 to take Andrew's class because I make music and I think it's worth the money. I guess I didn't communicate it well enough, but I was trying to point out that Andrew could have "held back" and stopped posting music help videos in order to get (I guess I used the word "force") more people to take his class. Instead, he chose to continue posting them. I don't know if it's part of his branding, advertising for the class, or just because he's a good guy, but I'm happy to learn what little bits I can from him in my spare time, since I can't take the class right now.

In quantum mechanics, the cup is also a cat. The two wave functions represent an entangled state in the total Hilbert phase space. The cat only becomes a cup when you as the observer collapse the wave function. So simple! If only learning music theory was as easy....

This is the most amazing video on music theory I've found that gives me exactly what I'm looking for in a format that makes sense! Thank you!

@@katenka_ana3997 in my country we only talk about the history of music, and the teacher/professor usually ends up barking at us or putting food in our heads, that's not the point but teachers usually don't even know what they're talking about (in my country)

My music class in high school was: "Here, grab that instrument, here's a sheet of music learning to play this. What, you can't read music sheets? well i'm not here to teach that part, figure it out." So i never really grasped music theory all that well. I wish this was made 11 years ago

Same here I had 4 years of music school. One was called "aquarius" project where they basically just had us beat out at our instrument with some basic patters. The other was music throry where we had to learn all kinds of orchestral notation by heart like fortissimo, etc and sing along with songs in syncopated manner etc but at no point was melody, harmony, just basic music theory explained as clearly as this guy puts together in a half hour video. It's amazing for him to do this but also shows the extreme failiure of education systems everywhere that they are beat by a guy with a camera while charging thousands to people who are demanded to go to a facility to supposedly learn music in the best way. We have to drastically reform our entire education system because this shows just how much time and energy is wated and can be gained by just having the best teachers make video's and having people follow or watch them.

Tried to learn music theory for ten years nothing worked. You gave me hope, honestly. I think i might get it one day. Just need to practice and find what's working best for me. You're right, music is a language.
