Awesome video, here's an easy alternative way I use to find the root note. Make an arrow that always points to the right and put it in the biggest gap of the chord. So, in a C first inversion, E | G -> C In a second inversion, G -> C | E

Love this! When I started learning inversions I watched that root note like a hawk--this expands on that and makes it so much easier to see what I'm supposed to be playing. Thank you!

Thanks for your video and tips, I’m older and I’ve decided to learn piano and actually read music. I play guitar and I know basically how chords are built, but piano is so different, everything’s laid out beautifully flat, so to speak, and your video’s been very helpful in figuring things out. Enjoy the holidays! 🫶✌️

Hello. Don't think I've ever commented on a KZitem video before but wanted to say I came across your channel after watching lots of other videos about chords/how to play by ear (Pianote etc). I am so enjoying your channel. I have been playing now for about 4 years on and off, and have always found inversions so confusing and overwhelming. Your method and explanation here is incredibly helpful and makes me realise ways in which I can more easily identify inversions (through both the physical shape and the visual way to recognise if the 3rd has 'looped' back around), and 'anchor' using the root instead of it just seeming like a random jumble of notes! Have subscribed and will be working through the practice sessions asap. (PS: You don't happen to live in London for lessons do you?)

@PianoFromScratch

Can't remember if I re-mentioned it in this video but I did briefly in the previous part 2. When you're playing actual music, you'll end up playing all these positions using a variety of fingerings but for people getting started it's usually better to stick to one set for consistency and memory when our focus is recognising the position here. In the video I do all sorts of things but I'm often trying to keep my hand out of the way of your view. The fingers to start moving through inversions should be RH root 1 3 5 1st Inv 1 2 5 2nd Inv 1 3 5 LH Root 5 3 1 1st Inv 5 3 1 2nd 5 2 1. These are generally natural ways that fingers mould into the shapes the chords make, though like I say others work too

Very thorough but also a little over complicated it a little. It's hard to explain the easy stuff sometimes. They are sometimes the harder ones to get because once you learn basic theory everything else follows similar logic so becomes easier as you go.

Please can someone help me understand something. At 1:28 you play C maj chord using the fingers 1, 2, 3. But I have been doing it with 1, 3 ,5. I don't understand which one is correct because it seems different people play them with different fingers. I guess my question is does it matter which fingers I use or not because I'm worried that I've been learning songs using the wrong fingers and I will have to relearn them again if I've been doing it wrong. Thank you in advanced

Well if you haven’t played the C , or if a bass player for example hasn’t either, then that’s usually going to be the E as the root. Of course there may be exceptions depending on what you’re doing

There’s 2 types of 3rd, major 3rd and minor 3rd. Major 3rd is 4 semitones, minor 3rd is 3 semitones. Check out my chord building video and you’ll see how we can stack 3rds to create chords

Yea it is a handy way of organising and displaying things. It's really useful when you're practicing something in every key as an organised way of hitting them all (there's other ways too) You may hear it called the circle of 4ths too as if you go anti clockwise, it moves in 4ths

When you recognise chord and inversion shapes on the page, you can read them quicker as one thing instead of picking out each individual note. Then when you go actually to play them, it's easier when those positions are already familiar on the piano.
@moontan91

but i think it would be better to call a Major chord in root position, for example, being a major 3rd interval with a minor 3rd on top of it. i feel just calling them "3rd" is confusing.
