Hey, I'm Jesse, a composer and music theorist. I believe that Music Theory is a practical and valuable artform for all musicians throughout their lifetime. On this channel, I am making videos to help all musicians grow in their understanding of music theory and how it can make them a better musician.

I learned this around 15 years ago and had completely forgotten, but it’s all flooding back. Thank you for all these succinct videos!

THIS IS SUCH A GOOD SERIES!! I'm vice president of my high school chorus and I'm definitely showing this to my director!

Thank you for a great series so far.
You could have made the background music play the temp you are counting in. Just a thought.

[xoxUnDRaThxox]

what do u mean by "for notes landing on the beat"? and what do u mean " middle of the beat"?

[jeffersonho]

[nitroform]

Why wouldn't you just count every beat?

[adrianatartakoff]

[soundyzer]

it is not a good explain, you only said about 4x4 compass! you should tell about jazz time, and music that has different times!
