Music Theory - The Difference Between Major and Minor Pentatonic Scales - Music Theory

We begin with a reminder of what is a pentatonic scale and how a pentatonic scale can be transposed. We go on to hear and look at a short melody written in C major pentatonic before comparing that with another melody written in A minor pentatonic. We see and hear how the tonic of the two melodies differs and how that enables us to define the melody as major pentatonic or minor pentatonic. This music theory lesson will be useful to those playing in major pentatonic and minor pentatonic and will also help those who are writing in major and minor pentatonic. ⬇️Download the files https://drive.google.com/file/d/16i9WWjjd1BWUDwmF2ogOrAsJSRMB2ciR/view?usp=sharing 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg?sub_confirmation=1 🎵 Become a Music Matters Maestro: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/join 👕 Merch store: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/store 🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Introduction to the difference between major and minor pentatonic scales 0:16 - What is a pentatonic scale? 1:15 - Major pentatonic scales 2:27 - Minor pentatonic scales 3:52 - The difference 4:53 - Conclusion 🎓 Learn Music Online with Music Matters Learn music theory, aural tests, composition, sight reading, orchestration and more!
