What's the most fun way to learn music theory?
Q. I've been playing piano for years, but always hated music theory, since I like to envision soothing imaginings while I play and not be distracted by repetitive little notes and latin words. I want very much to master music theory for many reasons, but without the sense of restriction and drudgery. Has anybody felt similarly and overcome it, now loving and liberated by music theory? Any books, software, techniques you can recommend for this?
A. There are no "fun" ways to learn music theory. But it is not "drudgery" and torture either! The concepts of music theory and harmony are what make music "work". As a longtime musician you already understand a lot of the concepts because you have used them in your playing. You have "heard" these ideas before but you just cannot explain or identify them.
One of the best ways to gain an understanding of theory is to take some classes on the subject from your local community college and/or a private instructor. Although there are plenty of books and material available to help you with it, it is easier to understand when someone else is guiding you through it.
The basic precepts of harmony and theory are based around very familiar ideas such as the major scale and chord construction. These are things that you are innately familiar with. There are rules that apply to chord construction such as concepts of tertiary harmony (harmony based in thirds) as well as chord motion and resolution.
These concepts can be very rewarding and are well worth your time and effort to understand. Think of it this way. Music is a language. We learn language by imitating others as a child. But it is not until we learn to read and to spell that we truly understand what language is. As we learn more about grammar and the concepts that govern how language is used, we become more adept at using language and better able to communicate our ideas and thoughts to others.
Music is the same way. By learning the basics of reading music, you have taken the first step to a fuller comprehension the "grammar" of music. By learning the concepts of harmony and theory, you will gain a greater understanding of why things work the way they do and how music is made. This will help you greatly in your enjoyment of music as an art form and as a "language".
How easy would it be to learn the acoustic guitar?
Q. I want to take up the acoustic guitar, but I don't know how to go about learning it without lessons. I'm already grade 6 on piano, and took my grade 5 combined viola/violin 5 years ago and continue to play the viola, so I wouldn't be an absolute beginner. Also, I have pretty good pitch, near perfect, if that helps.
I don't want lessons I have exams coming up so I don't have time for more music lessons, but I have the dedication to teach myself.
Thanks!
A. Hi,
I was in the same boat you were in 3 years ago when I first picked up my guitar, and haven't taken a lesson since. If you have good sense of pitch and tone, it really isn't too difficult. I would first get a beginners guide for guitar from your local guitar shop. It just teaches you the basics of the guitar, and can later expand on as your progress. Learn basic open chords and practice strumming techniques. With practice, you will get better over time. Whether you want to learn to read music is up to you, but you can always look up tabs on the internet for your favorite songs. Try ultimate-guitar.com
As far as the guitar goes, I would suggest going to your local guitar shop and ask him to play a couple for you. Here's a good beginner one- http://www.guitarcenter.com/Takamine-G-Series-G340-Acoustic-Guitar-516421-i1148978.gc?CJAID=10449560&CJPID=1759905.
Have Fun!
