Great instructional video. I am a Music Fundamentals teacher and I was able to use this today with my class. They all enjoyed it and learned from it. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to more videos like this one.

Awesome! Thank you for commenting, and hopefully my new video on Vivaldi will be up soon. I have been sick, but recovering and ready to get back to working on it. I hope your classes go well!

If there's any way you could do something with basic notation from whole notes to 16th notes and demonstrating patterns and counting. I have a lot of non-music majors and their nemesis is always counting. Thanks!!!

Not an Italian (and I get why the word was used in the context of what you are trying to get across), but shouldn't it be 'bellissima'?

You are correct, as the subject, the woman, or donna in Italian, is feminine. The adjective bella should end with an a then instead of an o. It was a mistake on my part.

You're right! "Bella" is feminine, therefore its absolute superlative should be "bellissima"

“Piano, Italian word that means ‘SOFT’” and then there’s also “Means the music should be played loud” under the same section

In my opinion, the guitar solo in the beginning of "Stairway to Heaven" is not accompanied by mellotron flutes, but by recorders. Because the legatos sound so smooth while there would be no sense of legato while playing with a mellotron flute sound. :)

I got the mellotron flute info from some research online. I may be mistaken, but that is the info I found.

Nice - thank you! Perhaps in a later video you will be able to tell about the German indications that Beethoven began using when he found it difficult to express his wishes in Italian? This video is lovely - clear and easy to follow. Thank you!

Thank you, and glad you found the video helpful. I worked quite hard on it. It is always difficult to decide how deep to go with the information on a topic for these video. Since I try to tailor mine for non-music major music appreciation students as well as people just wanting to better know how music works, I often end up cutting out interesting tidbits like the one you mentioned. I think the time in which Beethoven lived and the political and philosophical shifts involved likely helped motivate his departure from using Italian as well, as Italian was very much the language of music for the aristocracy. Beethoven, being a champion of democracy and the Enlightenment, would encourage a more democratic view of music, and, like Mozart before him, would find German to be just as suitable for music as Italian.

Excellent video. You made it interesting enough to keep middle schoolers attention . That in itself makes it a winner!!! I understand that in using Italian words for dynamics translates differently into English. Its just the way it is. Very well done, and I like the listening list which I will use in my students weekly listening. Please let me know of any other of your video. Well done. Thank you for making this available. Appreciate it..

Great video...though I do take exception at using the term 'loud' to describe forte. Could not the correct interpretation of 'strong' mean the same thing? And some might say 'strong' is a better definition of forte as it embodies that the 'loud' sound produced also includes control to the tone (Strong = Controlled Loudness)....nothing bad - great production and history lesson, but I just prefer to use/explain forte with the term 'strong.'
@UnderstandingMusic

I agree somewhat and did include "strong" as the literal translation of forte, but even in Italian it can mean tenacious, intense, fast, and talented. Since the definition of dynamics specifically refers to how loud or soft music is, "loud" is the preferable definition of forte. I do agree that it is important for music students to understand its literal and interpretive meanings as well, of course.

None of the voice types are dependent on vocal range. You are very wrong about this. Mezzo sopranos voice range is just as wide as any other soprano type. Yes there’s a few. Basically The difference is to do with the colour of the voice. A mezzo is richer in sound than a lyric or coloratura. What you’re referring to is second soprano for amateur singers in local choirs.

Thank you, and I try to include diversity into my videos since my student population and online viewers are very diverse. Doing so seems to both make more people happy as well as mad, lol. I guess I wanted to show that classical music does not require formality and conformity - it can be played by and enjoyed by anyone.
