Hi music nerds! This video is SUPER in depth and comprehensive. But, I want you to know that I explained it this way for a reason. I want you to truly understand that the circle of fifths is a natural thing - internalizing the reason why and how it exists in this way will help you remember! Please let me know if you have any questions! This is episode 8 of the music fundamentals series!
