Essentials of Music Theory
Learning Music Theory
I know why you are in music theory. The girls. The money. The glamour. Hah!
Let's get something straight right now. 99% of this site is not music theory. It is music labeling. You are learning how to identify parts of music and assign
labels to those things. Calling it 'music theory' is just to make you feel better about yourself. That said, this site is broken into four sections and hopefully
you will find one of them useful. You can choose your path from the light green strip above in the navigtion bar or from the links below. You are on your way to becoming a better musician
and that's a very good thing. Above all, remember that the things that make music...well, musical are frequently not expressed in notes on the page.
