Hi everyone,
In todays post I'm going to talk about the 'Discovering Music Theory' music theory workbooks from ABRSM. These workbooks are for the music theory grades 1 - 5.
The 'Discovering Music Theory' workbook replaces the 'Music Theory in Practice' workbook series.
The 'Discovering Music Theory' workbook series are for the music theory Grades 1 - 5, and compared to the 'Music Theory in Practice' these are so much better as they have a clearer layout. I also like the fact they are a lot more colourful.
Within each 'Discovering Music Theory' workbook there's a series of exercises, and each of these exercises focuses on one or two elements of music theory for that relevant grade. There's also diagrams, and also hints and tips on how to help to understand that area of music theory that you are working towards.
The 'Discovering Music Theory' workbooks feature :-
- Straightforward explanations of all new concepts
- Progressive exercises to help you to build up your skills and understanding on a step by step basis
- 'Challenge' questions to help you to extend on your learning, and to develop your music-writing skills
- Helpful tips on how to approach certain exercises
- Ideas on linking theory to music listening, performing and instrumental/ singing lessons
- Clear signposting and progress reviews throughout
- A sample practice exam paper showing you what to expect in the new style of exam from 2020
The 'Discovering Music Theory' provides an excellent resource for anyone who wishes to develop their skills in music literacy, GCSE/ AS/ A Level Music students, and also adult learners.
