Free Basic Music Theory Course Update!

My free course in basic music theory and musicianship is now grouped in bite-sized modules of a few lessons each.

Learn music theory by listening and observing. All points demonstrated and clearly explained rather than taught as rules.

Each module only takes a couple of hours to complete and covers a particular area of music theory and musicianship.

  • No need to find time for the complete course, just take it one module at a time! 
  • If you have a little theory knowledge you can go straight to specific modules 

Each lesson includes examples and exercises. Points are clearly illustrated with graphics, audio and video.
