Music Theory I: The Basics
Details
Duration: four consecutive weeks
Class Time: 1.5 hours
Description
Discover the how, what and why behind the music you compose and play with former Berklee College of Music professor Chris Buono. In this hands-on introductory music theory course designed for all instruments—that includes DJ’s and computer-based artists—Chris will start from the absolute beginning right down to the notes and the staff they’re written on. Through proven methods Chris will work with you to build a rock solid foundation in scales, key signatures, intervals and basic chords. If you already have basic knowledge this course will surely fill in the gaps. Having an understanding as to how music works enables you to create and play deeper music and that’s a good thing.

In addition you’ll explore real-time recording, mixing and how to remote control Live. This is the perfect class for the musician who wants to discover the world of digital music production or even the DJ wanting to integrate the power of computers and Live into their performances.
