Do you feel as though your knowledge of music theory is seriously lacking?

The problem is that music theory is such a vast topic; you could spend years and thousands of dollars studying it and still have more to learn.

As a professional musician and Suzuki-trained teacher with 8 years of music theory courses under my belt, I understand what topics are truly essential for violinists to master, and how to use this knowledge to inform and improve their playing.

In this course, you'll learn essential music theory for violinists and how it applies to and impacts your playing.
