This music theory lesson begins with a fundamental note and explains how to derive the overtones from that note that comprise the harmonic series. The video uses the principles of brass...
In this Music Theory lesson I explain why our ear naturally understands chords and how the harmonic series works. I also play some killer acoustic harmonics!...
The harmonic series is probably the most fundamental aspect upon which music can be understood. As we will see, it is the basis for an effective chord voicing, to understand chord tones and tensions, scale construction and also rhythm.
Below is the harmonic series starting with the low E string as the fundamental. Note that each harmonic is numbered. These numbers are used to reference a specific harmonic in the series. The specific pattern of intervals in the harmonic series applies to every note regardless of pitch.
This classical approach to harmonics is very useful. It is used in many other contemporary acoustic styles and sometimes on electric guitar, though not as often. I will get onto doing some text and tabs for this sometime soon - for now I think the video should explain them pretty good.
What is the pattern that predicts which notes of a harmonic series will be one octave apart? Notes one octave apart are given the same name. So if the first harmonic is a "A", the second and fourth will also be A's.
