Sheila Joynes Teaches Music Theory
This is a video introducing a series of programmes designed to teach children and adults Music Theory. This training material is designed to complement a student's increasing playing abilities in their chosen instrument(s) and progress through their musical Grade Examinations.
Some examination boards do not allow a pupil to progress beyond Grade 5 until they have passed Grade 5 Music Theory. Many music teachers do not teach Music Theory (or simply do not have time to fit Theory into instrumental lessons) so this can become a "wall" the student cannot pass. Sheila Joynes's videos teach up to and including Grade 5. New students can learn along with their increasing playing ability whilst others can 'catch up' to continue their musical progress.
Parents with children learning an instrument, will find watching the Level 1 teaching modules will give them an understanding of the terms they hear their children using - a memorable Glossary of terms - and who knows, they may be encouraged to take up learning to play themselves!
Others who will benefit include those who are self taught. If you "play by ear" and would love to understand written music - these videos might be right up your street and help you enormously - watch this free sample and find out!
Sheila says, "It's never too late (or too early) to learn to play music!"
