I’ve been in music for so long and not once have seen half steps and intervals named together and put on a graphic. This is far and away the best presentation of that information and this has helped a lot towards actually learning piano instead of just note names with positions. Huge thanks

Yes! Major and minor thirds are the intervals par excellence. They are just the base to the main chords qualities. Thanks for the video!

Your in depth PDF study guide is so reasonably priced. I was astounded and joyful. The video has surely helped clear some things up for me 👌

Absolutely brilliant. You simply explain “it” so clearly. I subscribed!

Your efforts in making sense of music theory is much appreciated!

Simply great lesson. I love your courses. Thanks

Tank you from Limon Costa Rica

Just to make sure, at 10:13 theres a graphic in the bottom. You say the Minor Triad is a minor 3rd followed by a major 3rd. But the graphic shows the opposite as I would follow it from top to bottom. Just making sure your graphic is right. IDK just want to help. Great video though! Very cool tricks for interpreting chords. It made a lot of things make more sense.

Thanks!

Thank you for breaking this all down. I found this extremely helpful. I am not able to purchase any of your products from your website ... as the links are not working. It errors out.

When do I use both hands when playing?

Not seeing the link to the free Chord chart download? Can you please let me know what it is? Thanks for the great chord tutorial.

What does it mean to “stack thirds” if a third is the third note of a given scale? What defines a third when it is added to a third? Three letters away from the previous note on the scale or in the chord correct? Also is a chord always limited to a scale? Thank you!

Yes, a 3rd is 3 letters away but there's more than one type. Major 3rds are 4 half steps and minor 3rds are 3 half steps. So C to E is a major 3rd and C to E flat is a minor 3rd. So you can look at these kinds of chords (in root position) as being made of stacked 3rds. More specifically, a major chord is a major 3rd with a minor 3rd on top E.G a C major chord is C E G - C to E is 4 half steps then C to G is 3 half steps. A minor chord is the other way around, a minor 3rd with a major 3rd on top. A C minor chord is C Eb G - C to Eb is 3 half steps then Eb to G is 4 half steps. A diminished chord is 2 stacked minor 3rds and an augmented chord is 2 stacked major 3rds. No chords are not limited to scales but it's useful to know what chords fit inside a scale, by that I mean which chords we can build using the notes from a scale. Hope that helps!

@@PianoFromScratch yes that helps a lot! You are a very good teacher! The major and minor formula I understood. It was the third business that I wanted clarification on. Also you mentioned in your video that in a C minor chord we would call the third Eb and that’s because it would have to be the third letter right? I’m trying to establish certainty as this will really help me ground my understanding of music theory! Thank you for your patience!

@PianoFromScratch

Yes it's an Eb, you wouldn't call it D#. Think of it as the letters and interval numbers just fitting together neatly. The interval number always links with how many letters of the musical alphabet have been spanned. 5 letters = a 5th, 6 letters = a 6th etc. You can also find the C minor chord by playing the 1st, 3rd and 5th notes in the C minor scale. All these things fit together.
