Notes and Helps

GO SLOW! Re-watch each section several times, and write out exactly
what Rick is saying in several different keys or scales. Rick is also covering
12 – 18 months of music theory in 1 hour 43 minutes over these three videos.
Don’t expect to watch one of these videos and understand every nuance of music
theory.
Read, Watch, Write it down, Play the notes and chords, and LISTEN to
your instrument. HEAR the intervals, scales, and chords across the entire
fretboard. This stuff is way beyond simple pentatonic scales that you started
with. But, Rick is opening up a vast new doorway to mastering music and is
helping you become a professional musician.

I don't comment very often, but I have to tell you that your videos are absolutely amazing, Rick. Thank you so much!

[willdemunnik]

I now know I have moved forward in my music knowledge purely because I now understand what Rick is talking about. Cheers Rick 👍

[rutheproppi]

Bravo: Please do not stop you are the reason why people like us keep going.

[wernervannuffel]

This is the indeph insight view I was missing for so long. All your video-lessons are THE REAL THING WE NEED to mine the musical treasures under our fingers. Thanks you very much, Rick. Greetings from Hasselt (Belgium, Europe) :-)

19:33... The notes of a dim7 chord resolving to their respective minor chord notes = Pink Panther Theme. Mind = blown. :) Love your videos Rick!

[ChristianSchonbergerMusic]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Truly in-depth and step by step. Chords and scales, when studied truly in-depth such as analysis of jazz standards and re-harmonization, always make my head spin. Will re-visit this video many times (and others you made) it fills-in many a gap. This is gold!

Once again another amazing video! hands down best music theory tutorials on youtube, please keep them coming!

[OldSchoolVisions]

Quite easily one of the best couple of YouTube vids I’ve ever watched. Thank you so much.

[RonClemens]

These videos are such a great supplement to the Beato Book! Sometimes I get confused by what I read in the book, but then I see a video like this and Rick brings the whole concept to life with hows and whys and tops it off with good examples so you can actually hear what he's talking about. This is the hands down the best channel for "everything music" that I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge and experience with us, Rick!

[TechieButterflySinger]

My teacher shared you with me and I am learning so much! Thank you Rick! 🎶😘

[willzoo]

Amazingly simple and yet so effective. You are a true master. Thank you so much again and again.

[MusicLover-oeig]

Your ability of teaching music theory blown me away! Playing piano and having knowledge of all those chord terminology why I am tone-deaf to how they are put together!!

[johnmoorejr.]

These videos are great! I've been playing all sorts of trumpet for 20 years and still have some basic gaps in my theoretical knowledge even after music degree, etc. Your videos have helped me TREMENDOUSLY discovering firstly what gaps there were and then how to fix them. Super concise, right to the point. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

[runegaasoddennor]

Thanks for making this one of the most inspirational teachings about Music Theory ever. I learned and studied the piano about 13 years before rock`n`roll took my soul lol. Anyway, I just saw your interview with Mr. Steve Vai and was ready to start up the studio, very inspired. Then You showed me how great you could teach and actually make me understand and learn. All while I was loving every second of it. Thanks, again Mr. Rick Beato, you have just got a new fan in me. Now I will play something. I will promote your excellent work to everyone who lives and loves creating or listening to music indeed. Peace, Love, and eternal Respect from Norway.

[stanleonard]

This is quite possibly the BEST video on this concept online. Just bought the Beato book, can't wait to dive in.

[DiogenesNephew]

This is absolute gold. I'll be returning after I address the stuff in the first video.

[simpleeye]

Mr. Beato I would like to let you know that your contributions to YouTube are invaluable. You bring truly amazing content and teaching. Thank you!

[gurusuryan]

Wow! I never thought about chord progressions in this way. Makes so much sense! Thank you!
