MUSIC THEORY

Music Theory is an elective class open to Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors interested in possibly furthering their music studies, or majoring in music in college. Music Theory covers the reading and writing of basic music notation, scales, triads, seventh chords, 4-part writing in major and minor keys (Bach Chorale Style), and other composition techniques if possible. The student will complete a short 4-part writing project at the end of the school year using all of the material learned.

This course is offered every OTHER year. Acceptance to the class must be approved by Mr. DeLoach before registering.
