I very rarely comment. Wanted to say I found this incredibly useful. Watched several times, and I'm implementing this into my playing. Thank you

This is great. Thank you very much.

Brilliant! I’m not going to lie, I had to play this one at 3/4 speed

Thank you very much!!! This stuff is great as always!!!. I recommed another video of How use dimineshed chords for change to another key. Sound beatiful. Thank you again.

Please make windows version for mapping tonal harmony

This is a good video. I like watching your video because it makes me think|[use different vocabulary]|[over brain power usage] the half-whole scale. I am a scientific guy and we always map and reduce ideas so that we can mnemonically recall stuff for mission critical situations (and not die). And your way of breaking it down is very brain hungry. It makes my brain draw different cell networks. Good stuff. But when I am playing, I never think of it that way. And when I reversed engineered it by ear ( at 10 years old as a child by listening to jazz and hip hop stuff) , I never thought of it that way. Very interesting correlation and summation of info. P.S. When I was a kid, I did not have access to music teachings, so I had to teach myself quick schemes of my own design to play those jazz and r&b and gospel stuff I heard on the tizzube. I always thought of jazz as playing a [half-step] or [minor third] [under or above] the target two-note chord. So my C-major chord would be [C/lefty + B + *] or [ C/lefty + A + *]. I figured out a scale that was not minor or major, that I called a [ tritone up] or [tritone down] So when playing in C, my brain would highlight C and F#. I'd think C-minor, C#-min, F#-minor, G-minor. My [tritone down stuff] over C was B-minor, C-minor, F-minor, F#-minor. It got really weird. As I got older, I started added a three-chords where that third option could play anything to throw the ear off. Then I learned of 4-chord notes around early twenties. It blew my mind around 2008, that was playing diminished scale. My left hand and right hand never play the same note|frequency. As I got older, I now realized why everyone thought I was musical genius or something. But in my mind it was list of simple patterns that I just memorized. My whole life feels like a list of simple patterns that I designed and memorized; (it also blew my mind that most people do not think like that; reverse engineering stuff all the time). I always go back and think like that 10 year kid when playing though. Now I just add more notes. Even now, I get excited when educated musicians vocally and visually tell me how they think. It is interesting to me. I also taught myself to read music while in high school ensemble vocal choir sheet reading (that I joined for the ladies). I initially learned to only recognize fourths intervals and octave intervals on paper. If notes were written below the 4th, then it must be third jump. If the note was above a fourth must be a fifth. That was all I needed. Chromatic stuff is easy to see. I would love to know how true musicians brains think of when reading glyphs|[sheet music] and enumerations (and macros and stuff). Great stuff.

Another great lesson 🙂

exceellent insigt into this approach. could you do a instructional course on building chords from scales, not just major minor or on a dominant ,but the related modes too showing the process. on a diatonic basis, some how i feel this important step gets skipped over assuming the audiance knows there diatonic chords , in the respective related modes other than the “Ioanian”. I understand chords are built from scales but there seems to be no thorough concise dedicated explanation , guiding one through the process of building chords. Products owned MTH..TP. Plus Choruses Respectively yours Chris Cover.

can you please make a windows version of the last MTH app? 🥺

A minor error: You have C# dim labeled as C dim at the 6:20 mark

At 5:08, What does ''on a diminished chord, every note a whole tone above is an available tension'' mean? What is ''an available tension'' exactly? Do you have any video about ''available tensions'' for each chord and their justifications?

Where do I find the link to the pdf. Thank you

This is too hard

??????? I too dumb to understand this
