Find music theory lessons near me in Midhurst

Music theory builds on a set of core concepts that unlock how music works.

• Reading music: Learning to read notes on a stave, understand time signatures, and recognise rhythmic values is the first step.
• Notes and scales: Understanding major and minor scales gives you the vocabulary to analyse any piece of music.
• Chords and harmony: Harmony explores how chords relate to each other within a key, shaping the mood of a piece.
• Musical intervals: Intervals underpin chord construction, melody writing, and aural training.

A private music theory tutor can guide you through these concepts in the right order and at your own pace.

In music theory, the 1 3 5 rule describes how to build a triad from any major or minor scale.

• The first note (1): The root is the starting note of the chord and gives it its name — for example, C in a C major chord.
• The middle note (3): A major third produces a happy sound; a minor third gives a sadder, more introspective quality.
• The fifth (5): It anchors the sound and gives the chord its sense of resolution and completeness.

Once you grasp this principle, building chords by ear and on paper becomes second nature.
