Music Theory for Producers
Learn Music Theory
Music theory can seem daunting if its tools and practice aren’t familiar to you. Understanding the basics is essential as a producer, engineer, musician or more broadly in the music business. Once you are familiar with the language of music theory it will help you with whichever direction you wish to pursue. These practical, two-day courses will provide you with the necessary building blocks to utilise music theory in your approach to writing, creating and producing music. The course is split into three levels, starting with the basics for beginners in music theory.
The objective of the course is to provide new creative paths for existing music makers through the advantage of music theory knowledge. To achieve this we will be using increasingly complex recognisable music tracks to ensure engagement with the material introduced and analyse music elements separately, both from a sound and notation perspective.
The course, especially level one, will have a simple and friendly approach to music theory, modelled for participants that may already be working with sound, but that not necessarily have an existing music knowledge background.
If you need to develop your music theory knowledge to apply for our Advanced Diploma in Music Production and Sound Engineering, this course will help you prepare.
