We will provide you with five tips to start en continue learning music theory in a fun and interesting manner.
Music theory might seem boring. You have to read a lot and understand complex rules. When you combine music theory with practice, everything becomes more fun! Get your instrument ready and play the intervals and scales. Use your voice to sing, and you'll learn ear training at the same time.
Maybe you play saxophone or drums, but if you have a keyboard, you have a great advantage. Use it to play intervals and scales. The distances between notes are really clear, because you can see and count the white and black keys. This makes it easier to understand the basics of music theory.
Once you get a bit further, you can take your own instrument and practice everything.
Music theory is the foundation of all music. Listen to different types of music and try to recognize patterns. You can also listen to your favorite songs. Once you make more progress in music theory, you'll recognize scales and intervals. When you're at it, give Sonids Spotify Playlists a go!
