Music theory is one of the most exciting parts of music education...for me ♥. It is absolutely essential. It helps us to understand music in such a way that we can ultimately compose music ourselves. Music theory knowledge will ultimately help us to explore personal creativity and freedom when composing, harmonising and arranging.

B) BERKLEE MUSIC THEORY

 3 months online  

for beginner teens/adults


Do you want to get a quick, overall understanding of music theory? Search no further, this is it! Or must I say, this is Berklee, nothing more to say! 

Learn music theory based on over 40 years of music theory instruction at Berklee College of Music.

The Beklee method features rigorous, hands-on, "ears-on" practice exercises that help you explore the inner working of music, presenting notes, scales, and rhythms as they are heard in pop, jazz, and blues. You will learn and build upon the basic concepts of music theory with written exercises, listening examples, and ear training exercises. The online audio examples will help reinforce lessons as you begin to build a solid musical foundation.


These books are perfect for the informal and formal musician, beginner - intermediate, who simply wants to understand more about music. An excellent choice for bands, composers and arrangers to get more control over what they are attempting with the music they make or the songs they write.


C) ROCKSCHOOL

For primary / secondary school students and adults


Rockschool Popular Music Theory is the essential guide for contemporary musicians, composers and educators. 

If you are a performer and in a band, but your music reading isn't great and you don't know how to write music for the other instruments, the popular music theory course from Rockschool is for you.
