eMedia Music Music Theory Tutor Volume 1 (Electronic Download, Windows) Overview
An engaging approach to music theory for beginners, this downloadable version of eMedia Music’s Music Theory Tutor Volume 1 for Windows features over 230 interesting and interactive lessons. Images, audio, and interactive tests are incorporated into the curriculum along with practical theory. The Intelligent Practice mode offers optimized practice sessions based on your responses and skill level to help you learn music theory elements, such as rhythm, melody, and harmony.
Music Theory Tutor shows you when you are playing or singing with the correct pitch and lets you see your progress. Many of the lessons allow you to respond by humming, singing, or playing your instrument into your computer’s microphone. Enjoy the ability to tap rhythms and sing back melodies, in addition to guessing intervals and much more. Gain confidence as you pass each music theory quiz at the end of a subject, and ace the exams at the end of every grade-level completion.
In this program, you’ll learn how to read music and develop an understanding of basic chord theory, scale theory, and the building blocks of music. Music Theory Tutor will give you the ability to hear melodies, scales, intervals, chords, and rhythms in your head – so you can compose without an instrument and learn songs more quickly than ever before.
Teaches music theory with a step-by-step curriculum designed by Dr. Gregory Simon, who has a Ph.D. in music composition from University of Michigan and has taught at University of Colorado
Intelligent Practice tracks your progress as you learn music theory, and automatically selects questions to improve weak spots – just as a real instructor would do. If you want to work on something specific, use Custom Practice and select the desired item
Combines music theory lessons and basic ear training into a single software solution
Lets you view music theory quiz scores and other statistics to measure your progress
Covers rhythm fundamentals including tempo, counting beats, measures, and values for notes and rests
