Thanks for a good lesson. 4:31 is a really important explanation and example in accenting.

Thanks so much for this, I’ve been teaching jazz piano for 50 years and this is the clearest explanation of swing I’ve come across. I will share this with my students.

Well now. This is the first explanation I've seen that explains how the 'modes' come about and why they are the notes that they are.

PART 4! Thank you SO SO SO much for these helpful theory videos. I don’t know what I would do without it. I got my practice test score from 0.50 / 10.00 to 7.83/ 10.00.

Dear Brad, I guess you put tons of effort and spent so many hours to put this knowledge into this AMAZING VIDEO and gifting it to humanity free of cost. Hats off!

I just showed this to my Middle School Music class -- we paused and took notes. Great job and thank you!

What could be better

This video is actually about "Shuffle". "Swing" is about the accenting. Perfectly straight eighth notes can swing. Very common misconception.
