What is the Circle of Fifths?

Musicians!

For music students, hobbyist musicians, weekend jammers -- you might have heard of this thing called "The Circle of Fifths".

A lot of people get confused about what it is & what it's useful for.

Some people go on for years & still not understand it or memorise it.

If you've been wondering what it is & how to easily use it, this video might help.

What is this?

It's a 15-minute screenshare video that I recorded for students of a class I conducted a few years ago. It's very basic but has clear audio & has me showing you how to:

+ construct the circle of fifths
+ how to use it
+ why it's important

Who is this for?

This is for you if:

+ you've googled about the Circle of Fifths but still don't understand it
+ you've watched other videos about it but still don't get it
+ you wanna learn how to quickly identify major scales in any key 
+ you want to know how many sharps or flats are in a key
+ master key signatures finally once and for all

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1) Do I get an eBook with this?
No, you only get a 15-minute video.

2) Can I download the video?
Yes, you can.

3) Why is the video only 15 minutes?
Because that's how long it took to explain the concept for the class. I don't purposely make the video longer & charge you more for it. It's as concise and easy as I could make it so that you don't waste time watching a long video.

4) I don't know much music theory. Is this useful for me?
If you know some major scales, know what is the chromatic scale & you're familiar with half steps/whole steps as well as basic music theory, then you're okay. If you're a complete newbie to this, you might need more than this video.

5) Why don't you cover other music theory topics?
I probably will but not in this one. This video was literally in my archives and I realised that it might be useful for someone so I decided to make it available here.
