About This Course
So many people want to learn music but end up learning to copy what we see on an instrument. I wanted to know more about music than just what is written on the sheet music. I have learned so much since I started my music journey and the foundation is understanding scales and chords.
What does this course teach you. This course teaches you scales and chords which all your favorite songs are based on. Once you are comfortable and "really" understand the scale your song is written in then the song becomes so much easier.
It will cover: Major ScalesMinor Scales (modes)Different ways to learn your scalesMajor, minor, Diminished, and Augmented chordsHow to read chord variations (sus, 7th, dom7, 5 chords)How to read chord chartsHow to transpose songs (change the scale or key of the song) We are going to try very hard to explain all the material in several ways, because everyone learns differently. We are also going to explain a lot of the terms of music so you don't have to have a musical dictionary at hand. Most of the terms are very basic in music that we will us.
This course includes video of me explaining the process. It also has exercises for you to try out on your and multiple downloads to look over offline. Music is a process.
