Tip for beginners: sometimes you may find it easier to use this exact method, but on your treble E string instead (E1). The dissonant notes stand out more as the wrong notes, and the right notes sound more "right".

On a good day. 🤷🏼‍♂️ But I still can’t play along in chords. 😵‍💫 Single notes are easy for a long-ago trumpeter, and far less uncomfortable. I (edit: obviously) have no self-discipline and an easy-going teacher. 😊 Have a great day!

@jesselandreth4497 Жыл бұрын

Interesting way of explaining it. I'll definitely be sending this to other guitar friends as I've never been able to explain how I do it. I do a similar process but usually will just start playing some notes and instantly know what key a song is in based on where the note I played is in the scale. For example if the song is in D and I hit a G note, I will instantly know (from practice) that that G is the IV of the key that the song is in which means the song is in D. And if I hit a note that definitely isn't in the key, I'm only one note away from a "correct" note and can instantly still work it out from there. Knowing your Roman numerals really helps. If you know it well enough it also means you can easily play chords along with almost any song

This is super helpful thank you! I have a horrible musical ear, but a great sound one! I know chords really well but it takes a LONG time to hear keys and stuff. This perfectly sits into how i hear and my strengths with my ear. I’m an audio engineer and am pivoting more towards other areas in music. I know theory pretty decent too, but my knowledge holes are huge when it comes to musical ear and playing along with others (i don’t have much experience i mostly wrote midis by myself in scoring software since i was a kid). Most people followed along with me in the end and I’d like some more push and pull when working with others.

Great tip. Other than playing the full pentatonic scale you can pay attention to the note right bellow the root note. I.e. you found out that 10th fret (D) sounds like a main (root) of the scale. However before you stumbled on 10th fret you've also listened to 8th (C) and 9th (C#) fret. C would be the 7th note in D minor scale, while C# would be the 7th in D major. In other words, if you found your root key, and half step bellow it doesn't sound good - it's probably a minor scale and vice versa. That works if we are not talking about modes ofc

I usually skat sing or hum the note, either physically or in a monologue type way. And usually I can find the root no with no issues. Practicing finding the note and singing it seems to help a lot, also improvising as well. I usually put on some pop songs and play over or along with them sense they're not technical and fairly easy to fill in.

@zackmano Жыл бұрын

Pretty nice description for beginners. Eventually you get to the point where your ears and your hands have the muscle memory to just jump to the key w out you barely thinking about it, but that's easy for me to say bc I've been playing over 30 years. But that started to happen for me about 5-7 years after I began playing.

@Samjamguitar Жыл бұрын

Yes this is definitely the case.... I would practice the above method in this video on adverts/commercials between TV shows as a kid and after a year or so I could jump straight to the key without any thought pretty easily. I feel most musicians that have been playing for a few years generally are all capable of this but for those who are not yet able to then this video will certainly teach you how to approach this useful skill.

Ive been practicing guitar for almost 2 years as a hobby. I never knew how to find keys in songs or what they really referred to. I saw this video in my recommendations. So, I wrote down the notes and used it in about 4 different country songs (cause their easy for beginners and my novice ears) and holy cow! I was able to find the key by the 2nd song. I had to listen to the songs a few times but this tip was 1000% worthwhile. Also being able to tell if its a major or minor, makes it fun to fingerpick the scale during the song. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Great video. Not something I really need personally, but this is a question that comes up on online forums quite often, and it's important to have a video that explains (and demonstrates) this concept in a really simple way. It's difficult to communicate this through text. I mean, this is one of the most important concepts about music theory IMO. People talk a lot about keys, but I think a lot of people don't properly understand the most important thing about a key that is the tonal center. And if people don't understand tonal centers and can't hear them, then the concept of keys will make little sense. I've been looking for a video that would demonstrate this in an easy way, but hadn't found one before this. Well, there was another video that touched on the topic that was decent, but this one is much simpler, and also shows an easy method for finding it that isn't just "feel it and sing it" - which BTW I don't think is bad advice, but not everyone can do that instantly. The method shown in this video on the other hand helps with practicing hearing it if one can't find it instantly.
