MUSIC THEORY
A good working knowledge of music theory can be invaluable to a musician. For many it is essential.
Students wishing to take Associated Board practical exams beyond Grade 5 must have Grade 5 Theory.
Having a good knowledge of music theory makes undertaking parts of GCSE music course much easier. At A-Level it is indispensable.
For all musicians it enables us to communicate our ideas with accuracy and clarity.
With lessons at Ripplevale Music we can take you from first steps through to graded theory exams.
We offer tuition and support in music theory especially suited to those of you who are studying GCSE and A-Levels and need to develop your existing knowledge (if you have instrumental lessons with us then you will cover music theory as a matter of course).
