Intervals: Part I - Half of Everything You Need To Know In 7 Minutes

Intervals are a measurement of the distance between two notes. This video explains how to determine the number of an interval as well as the quality of most intervals up to an octave. Part II(coming soon!) will cover larger intervals, inversions, and intervals with odd roots that aren't based on major scales.

As a french I have to admit that english music courses are the best ... seriously, I've learned so much for free on the internet ... I've never been so happier to be able to speak english :D

If you’re not a teacher I think you missed your calling, you’re extremely good at it. I appreciate your efforts thank you sir!

[mayarakshitha]

NO WORDS CAN EXPRESS HOW GRATEFUL I AM FOR THIS VIDEO, THANK YOU😭

[latteARCH]

Ahh yes, the ever elusive radioactive and wi-fi accidentals...

This homeschool mom says Brad is our favorite music instructor. Not boring and better than any book we have used.

[HK_lesgo]

Thank you, really! I’ve always found music theory boring and just preferred to play by ear, but you’ve made me want to learn more about it. I laughed out loud at dub octia the destroyer. Your channel is a hidden gem.

im taking a music theory class in university and it was a 3 hour lecture, i did not understand a single thing. i watched your 7 minute video and it all makes sense now.

Dub Octia The Destroyer.

I don't have a funny comment. I just felt compelled to write it down myself. I'm not disappointed.

[FlacoSalsero]

I'm taking music theory and piano lessons and this video really cleared up some confusion I was experiencing with calculating intervals. Great presentations! Like and subscribed!

[hirooe]

I always liked the Dub'octia interval, it gives so much tension to the composition

[jenniferdahl]

I loved that you explained the purpose of intervals at the beginning.

[RacingMachine]

You are the best piano teacher i found in youtube, thanks for the amazing service provided to us begginers, keep it up bro! Cheers!!

[Owethu_hehe]

You're saving my life right now with your videos, thank you so much!!

[marchingbandnerd]

This was the first video that I actually learned something from because it was so well explained

[williamhowland]

Great work! Can't wait for part two.

[huangrenjunism]

wow this got recommended at the perfect time. i was just struggling with how to figure out how to make specific intervals, so thank you! :)

[PaperClipFlip]

This is the best explanation I've found.

[sinkbug]

Just had my own sherlock moment realising that this is why moving up or down down a key on the 3rd of chord changes whether it's maj or min

This was useful but the background “music” makes me homicidal.
