Checking my understanding and asking a question: in the key of G, an A chord is called something like the fifth of the fifth, right? In the same key, an F chord shows up frequently. Is that the fourth of the fourth, or would it be called something else? PS, your communication style is clear, direct and gentle. If someone is offended by it, that is on them. Your compassion and fairness show up and your willingness to apologize when you did nothing that requires an apology.

Amazing Sir.

This is great!

Just learned so much from this video, has helped me understand all of the questions I had and then some, thank you

Circle of Fifths: I suspect it is a message from an ancient cult or early Masons. Actually if you look at the colour wheel, it is quite similar: you get complementary, monochromatic, spilt-complementary, analogous, triadic, and tetradic combinations of notes gathered and grouped from sections of the circle. It makes sense.

Only recently found your channel. You have managed to explain what no other could seem to do.

Outstanding

Hey Brian,
It’s five years ago since you made this video. I hope you get my comment here in 2023.
I’m just learning music theory and I’ve seen half a dozen Circle of Fifths videos and printed out copies.
But your tips really opened up how to use the circle like I’ve never seen! Believe me, it was like doors opened and sunshine poured in while a choir of angels sang!
Seriously, it was the best. None of the other videos opened the keys like yours.
Thanks,
Gianni❤

Very clearly presented🙏🙏🏿👍🎩🎵✨

Thank you so much for making this. In a world of misinformation and total confusion this made concrete sense. You explained in such depth and the visuals helped so damn much. Pretty much changed my life.

Love this lesson!

Its so amazing how guys like brian appear so unassuming but have so much knowledge ( more than most can handle ) on theory where it unlocks so much joy for the person who understands it. I love this guy.

Great tutorial ..I’m not a fan of tattoos but I may draw this learning on my arm with a biro…best explanation I’ve seen 🙏👍👍👍

You use BEAD to get all this in your head ?
I prefer to use an icepick myself 🤪

I've been an ambient noodler for the better part of forty years. Always felt as though I was musically dyslexic when came to musical theory/fundamentals. Seriously speaking here. I could listen and comprehend but couldn't put it into action. That all changed 180 degrees after watching Brian's channel. Mr. Kelly is able to communicate in very simple, very specific and relatable, guitar theory and fundamentals. He does this better, quicker, and more simply than anyone/ teacher , I've ever seen or heard. Brilliant, Im forever thankful.

Wow, amazing video man. I knew the circle of fifths existed and that it supposedly was very usrful, but I always found explanations so confusing. You explain it so clearly. Thank you very much!

one instructor explained the order of sharps as, " French College Girls Do Almost Everything Better. " I created a phrase for the order of flats, " By Exercise And Diet Gain Control Forever. " I like your idea better thank you..

I love this channel!

The best explanation of the circle of 5ths I've ever heard, thanks for posting.

Very nice.

soooooooooooooo glad i found you!

Thank you this is very helpful

Hi Brian, regarding the “Diatonic Chords” wouldn’t it also be helpful to describe the organization of these chords (once you’ve identified the root as your #1 chord) as also being in alphabetical order?

In this manner, when looking at a diagram of “The Circle Of Fifths” it becomes easy to then identify the chords 2 thru 6.

PS: great video with info that really opened my eyes and mind.

Thankyou , very helpful

Heh heh tattooed on your arm.

nice one👍

Lots of good info. Thanks.

“Bead” hint very good. Don’t know how many times I’ve looked at the circle of 5ths and had not realized that. Thanks. AT

Very informative. I've never touched a guitar but this will help tremendously with my 🎹 music.

Awesome. This will help with my Hunt and Peck style of playing and writing music. Heard about the Circle of 5th. Thank you for a very informative lesson.

you are a fantastic teacher

Thank you dear Love it

Tattoos with utility are freaken awesome. I put yours right up there with Adam Savage's length measuring tatoo

Fml Duuuudddddeeeeeeeeee ,


Been a hobiest numerous years bored playing other people's music so this year started to attempt to learn theory. So far so good but this circle of 5ths has thrown me that was till I came across this

You speak slow and clear. And give powerful clear understanding information without it been to garganey thank you brother 🙏 🇬🇧

Absolutely awesome. Thank you for sharing your video 💙💙👍👍

This was extremely helpful! I've been unpretentiously studying a bit of music theory and this video taught me A LOT in a short preiod of time. lol I've watched many videos on the Circle of Fifths, but yours was simple, straightforward and clear. Having it explained by a guitar player totally made the difference for me. Keep up with the good work, Brian! Thanks for sharing! You've got a new follower! 👍

Thank you Sir

You convinced me with this lesson
