Hello friends!
My name is Yogi and I have made
this series for those who want to learn music theory
or wants to appear for trinity music theory exams
 
 
 
if you think that my videos have helped you
then please like it, share it and subscribe it
And please
give your suggestions in the comment section
so that I can make my videos better
then let's begin Music theory
today topic is Intervals
let's begin our first exercise
what is an interval?
it is distance between two notes
 
 
you can see in the example
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
except for Unison and Octave, we  number the other intervals
like 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th
 
 
 
 
 
 
you can see the example
 
 
let's count the distance first
remember when you count the distance
you count the tonic note as 1
 
 
 
 
there is 8 count distance
that means this is an octave
 
 
now make the notes
start from F
 
 
 
 
 
 
finish on F
 
 
 
let's count the distance
 
this is the fifth interval
this is our bass clef
 
this is the second space C
 
 
 
 
so we finish on G
 
 
 
next one is a treble clef
 
 
this is our fourth interval
 
 
 
We start with the note G
 
 
 
we finish on C
 
 
 
 
 
please try to do these exercises on your own first
 
you can check the video any time
 
 
 
you need to know only these intervals
for grade 1
in the grade 1 exam, they will not ask you about any other interval
 
 
you can see in the example they have not shown the 6th and 7th interval
so in the exam, they will not ask about 6th and 7th interval
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This one is Unison
 
 
this is an octave
 
this one is 5th
2nd
next one is forth
 
 
 
 
this one is forth
this is 3rd
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
next topic is
circle of 5th
what is the circle of 5th
 
it is important to learn your scales
 
 
later on, I will teach you the formula to learn it in an easier way
but for grade 1
you don't need those formulas
you need it when you reach grade 4 or 5
so we can guess that circle of 5th means
something related to 5
to find out our major scales
either its sharp major scale or flat major scale
we have to move five steps
we take C as the middle note
now if you move 5 notes upward
 
now you can see in this keyboard
 
 
in C major there is no key signature
All the notes you play are the white keys which mean no flat or no sharp notes
to find out the  next scale with one sharp key signature
what we have to do now is
move 5 notes upward and
 
 
 
now you can see the 5th note is G
 
we got our major scale
with one sharp note
 
 
 
 
now let's move to the flat major scale with one flat note
now move 5 notes backward
 
 
 
so we got F
with 1 flat note
 
 
 
 
you can see this is D major scale
which you will learn later
in the G major scale, we have 1 sharp note
so in D major scale, we will have 2 sharp notes
to get that
we have to move 5 notes upward
 
we will get our next major scale
with 2 sharp notes
how to find these sharp or flat notes I will teach you later
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
if you move upwards you will get the sharp major scale
if you move backward you will get your
flat major scale
 
there is nothing much to teach in this topic in grade 1
