FAQ's
🎵 What should I learn in music theory?
Music theory builds on a set of core concepts that unlock how music works.
- Notation and rhythm: Stave reading, note values, and time signatures form the bedrock of musical literacy.
- Notes and scales: Scales define the notes available in a key and are the basis for melodies and harmonies.
- Chords: Harmony explores how chords relate to each other within a key, shaping the mood of a piece.
- Musical intervals: An interval is the distance between two notes — recognising them by ear and on paper is a core skill.
With these fundamentals in place, more advanced topics like counterpoint, modulation, and composition become much more approachable.
💰 What is the cost of music theory lessons in Galashiels?
The average cost of music theory lessons in Galashiels is around £35/h.
The cost depends on:
- Your current level (beginner, intermediate, or preparing for ABRSM/Trinity grades)
- The teacher's expertise and background
- The package you choose (one-off sessions or regular weekly lessons)
- Where the sessions take place
Online lessons are often more affordable while remaining just as effective.
🎼 What is the 1 3 5 rule in music?
The 1 3 5 rule is one of the most useful concepts in music theory — it explains how basic chords, called triads, are constructed.
- The root (1): The 1 is the foundation: the note the chord is named after and built upon.
- The middle note (3): The third note determines whether the chord is major (bright) or minor (dark), making it the most expressive note of the triad.
- The top note (5): It anchors the sound and gives the chord its sense of resolution and completeness.
Understanding the 1 3 5 rule opens the door to chord construction across any key or instrument.
