Music is a universal human practice. Every culture that has ever been documented has created music. But how are these traditions taught and learned? How is new music created and old music documented? In this seminar, we will examine the basics of music theory—the art and practice of notating music, including pitch, rhythm, meter, scales, and key signatures.
A webinar for K-12 teachers in the private school, the public school, and the homeschool.
Maximum Attendees: 20, so be sure to reserve your spot early. The session will be recorded and made available to those who have registered.
