Music theory is the cornerstone on which both musical learning and performance are based. Whether you’re an aspiring Satriani, Bonham or Aretha Franklin, understanding the basics of music theory, from how to read music through to rhythm, harmony, and more advanced musical concepts, can help even the most experienced performer become a more rounded, flexible, accomplished musician.
Our music theory lessons are tailored to be as beginner-friendly as possible, and to suit the precise needs of each different student. Even if you don’t know your quavers from your crotchets or your tenor from your bass, our lessons help break down often difficult musical concepts to make you a more complete musician.
Music theory lessons are ideal for:
- University/College preparation
- Beginners of all ages and stages
- SQA Standard Grade, Intermediate, Higher and Adv. Higher students
- Anyone looking for a solid grasp of music theory
