Beginner Music Theory
July 6th - August 29th
Tuesdays at 4:00-5:00 PM CST / 5:00-6:00 PM EST
$450 for the 12-week term
Instructor - Natalie Frakes
Buzz through music theory fundamentals with fun music games, activities, and music apps. We’ll work through one concept at a time so students can build music theory mastery, build rapid response and connect the dots between theory and music making. Focus will be on music theory basics — music staff, rhythms and time signatures, note identification, major scales and key signatures, common terms and signs. This class is recommended for beginners who have just started on their instrument or have been working in Suzuki Book 1.
