By the end of this course you’ll have a good overview of how music works and you’ll be able to dive into in-depth music theory courses with confidence.

So you may be wondering what a crash course is and how this course differs from our other music theory courses. First off, a crash course is just a course that’s designed to be fast paced and quickly teach the fundamentals of a specified subject…in this case music theory. This differs from our other music theory courses by moving much quicker through more topics. In this course we’ll touch on topics that range from absolute beginner to those that you’ll find in Music Theory Level 5 and beyond.

Don’t get too hung up on trying to use all of the information you learn in this course. Our other music theory courses are designed to dive deeper into each topic and give you practical ways to practice and use what you learn musically.

Thanks!
