This course is designed for those with little or no knowledge of Music Theory but who want to investigate and study elements that constitute music. This involves gradually building up the skills set of notation, key and scale, to arrive at the equivalent of an ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) Grade 2 standard by the end of the course. There is a series of theory books by ABRSM called Discovering Music Theory which we will refer to but are not essential, although worksheets are sent out that complement each lesson. A good pencil and eraser are necessary and manuscript and rough paper would be useful.
