Course description

This week we're taking our Beginner's Guide To Music Theory up a level so, in under 35 mins, you can learn and take your understanding of music theory with this deep but concise look at writing better chords and progressions, time-signatures, different phrasings, polymeters and syncopation.

As with our previous Music Theory course, this is a constant learning curve, but vital in getting your tracks to stand out, be more varied and grab the listener's attention.

Although aimed at beginners, this course is definitely one for all abilities to dive into and guaranteed to help inspire and create more interesting tunes.

Go check it out!
