Whole Tones

Last time, we built our first triad using C, E, and G. But what happens when we start on a different note of the scale?In Lesson 012 of Learn Music Theory, we're taking the next step in understanding triads!Starting with D in the C major scale, we'll use our familiar take-one, skip-one pattern to build D, F, and A. Then we'll explore G major and practice finding triads from another starting note.You'll learn how to:- Build a triad from a different scale note.- Follow the take-one, skip-one pattern.- Keep track of scale degrees without changing their original numbering.- Practice finding triad notes on your own.🎹 Want to practice along?Visit our interactive lesson for piano examples, step-by-step activities, and a quiz to test what you've learned!https://learn.davyyyyg.com/music-theory/build-a-triad-from-another-scale-note/Remember, music theory isn't about memorizing everything overnight. It's about understanding one small idea at a time.Keep learning, keep experimenting, and most importantly, keep making music! 💚— DavyyyyG | Learn Music Theory

Ready to turn scale numbers into something you can play? 🎹In this beginner-friendly lesson, we'll use the C major and G major scales to build your first triads.You'll learn how to take positions 1, 3, and 5, hear the notes separately, and play them together as a chord.No memorization required. Keep your scale in front of you, take your time, and play along.🎹 Continue with the interactive lesson, piano practice, and quiz:https://learn.davyyyyg.com/music-theory/triads-from-the-major-scale/One lesson.

Use the major scale pattern learned in the last video in the music theory series to make major scales 🙂Follow along:

Okay, you made it this far! Congrats! Thanks for tuning into this series. In this video, I do my best to explain the Major Scale and how to construct it. I say construct because when you learn the steps and patterns you can apply this to any other note to make its major scale. I did my best to make it as short as possible. I hope this is all useful, reach out for help. Follow along: https://learn.davyyyyg.com/music-theory/major-scale/

Hello! Excited to show you what whole tones(or whole steps) are. Learning this will enable you to play in key when learning the major scale. Keep on learning. Follow along: https://learn.davyyyyg.com/music-theory/whole-tone/

Hello! understanding semitones. Excited to show you what semitones are in music. If you have made it this far I am happy for you because you are on the road to making the major scale! This will enable you to play in key. But first semitones, and the chromatic scale. basics first. follow along: https://learn.davyyyyg.com/music-theory/semitones/
