You are a great teacher! Your explanations are thorough, and the lessons are not rushed.
Your lesson on Modulation and Diminished chord modulation open up a whole host of possibilities.
Many players, like yourself, can just improvise and come up with whatever is crosses your mind at that given moment. I still have a disconnect, and tend to stop and workout where to go.... this is a real stumbling block for me. I'm not sure how to overcome this.
However, your lessons are a pleasure to watch and learn from. Thank You!

your teaching style is just incredible for someone who has multiple modes of learning and needs that to be able to grasp info. a confusing, complexed topic, you always make it into pieces that are manageable and the language you use just makes it so much easier to process. i'm very grateful and plan on buying a course(s).

That lesson was so very informative for me. It all made sense to me, after spending a year of learning Theory for Bass Players with Ariane Cap. I'm grateful for all of these types of videos. Just awesome thanks. I'll check out the other lessons..

Definetely one of the BEST videos I've watched on harmony. Often a confusing and overcomplicated subject, you come around a lot of subjects in a simple manner and with much clarity. You, sir, are an amazing teacher.

Omg, I spent 2 hours reading book music theory for harmonize and not retain anything compared to your video which is only less than 15 mins under and actually understand this. Thanks a lot!

As someone just barely dipping their toes into harmonizing, I love how you layed out all the chords in a key you work with, and explained which to use. It finally clicks with me!

Thank you, I finally understand this now. I have a quick question. Do you have any guidance on how to harmonize a piece for a full orchestra? Thanks in advance. Leam

hello, awesome video! With chords, can I do random ones that contain the note, or do I have to do cadences? (perfect,V,I interrupted,V,I.)
