Is it really that useful when your not hearing the relation of them notes in the context of a key?" 47:59 - QUESTION #5: Joel Chung, "Ppl describe chords differently, says for e.g a major triad (major 3rd+perfect 5th) but then if you compare the 3rd degree to the other notes you have another min 3rd.

Why are those patterns considered to be base?" 1:20:12 - QUESTION #9: Alexander, "When chromatic notes were first used what were the musicians thinking and how was it justified at the time? I understand diatonic, but chromatic seems like it breaks fundamental ideas of tonality." 1:26:28 - QUESTION #10: Joel Chung, "Dr, I have a question on good theory books that you would reccomend for the Diploma/Undergrad music students. I'm looking to read more on harmony specifically for songwriting." 1:29:07 - QUESTION #11: Metal Head19, "Hello Dr, can you explain how to make a smooth voice leading between I and ii/II chord ? I mean all notes will be different so how can we make those changes sound more pleasent ? Thank you" 1:37:43 - QUESTION #12: ABDULAZIZ SHABKOUH, "what do you think of people who say music theories are nonsense ?"
