Music theory is often perceived as difficult to understand, and music theory as complex to learn. These courses aim to change this perspective by offering a dynamic method that links music theory to the sounds it represents from the very beginning. In addition to the many animated videos that will be presented, activities and exercises will allow you to develop the reflexes necessary to read musical texts.

Description

Welcome to the second course of the MOOC series: Solfege at your fingertips.

This series of free online courses focuses on music theory and its application through music theory.

High school music programs often focus on ensemble playing, leaving less room for music theory. Furthermore, with the many music software programs available, it is easier to create music without mastering and understanding the mechanics of tonal music. It is thus to deprive oneself of all the richness of the colors and the possibilities that this one can bring. Whether you want to study music or are an amateur musician, you can take your playing to the next level by fully mastering the language of music!

The first MOOC in the series focuses on writing pitch, note names and accidentals, as well as understanding intervals, the relationship between two notes.

This second MOOC deals with tonality, the major scale and the different minor scales.

In the third MOOC, we will see the construction of 3 tone chords, 4 tone chords and tonal harmony.

In the fourth MOOC (to come), we will discover the writing of rhythms, simple and compound measures as well as binary and ternary beats.

Solfeggio and dictation preparation: Throughout these courses, we will also offer you numerous solfeggio capsules where you will be able to work on your sight-reading with our students, as well as a series of capsules where you will be guided step by step to make musical dictations. These capsules were prepared by Sylvie Ouellette who has been teaching ear training for over 20 years at Cégep Marie-Victorin. Each capsule will be followed by exercises on the theme previously discussed. Thanks to this incredible tool, you will be able to put into practice all the theoretical notions you have learned and be ready for your college or university auditions.

We hope that this series will help you demystify music theory so that you can read a score with as much pleasure as you would have reading a good novel!
