Yeah, I got sucked into the same misunderstanding so many do. Once I “saw” how “simple” music theory was, I thought I could “show” other people how simple it is. However, I have read many books and watched many videos by others who tried to show me how simple it was. And I never “got it” from hearing their expressions of understanding. It wasn’t until I had spent enough time trying to wrestle with the concepts that I got my own, personal understanding of music theory.
I have put so much out there. I’ll keep trying, but now I get it. No one is going to “see it” because of what I say. If someone has that ah-ha moment as they are seeing my explanations, then it’s because they have already put in the effort to be ready for that ah-ha moment. I was only one piece of their puzzle.
Take your time. Please ask any questions you have and I will do what I can to help you on your path of music theory discovery.
