Everyone of us is a music lover and music admirer only differing in the intensity. Music aficionados go a step further and strives for learning music theory. It’s the common belief that once you learn music theory, you are more engaged in decoding the language rather than enjoying it to the fullest.
But, my views are quite different from others. I believe that when you know something from its basics, you give your best and get the best in return. Learning music theory involves knowing a lot of things like note names, rhythms, meter, signatures, dynamics, scales, chords, melody, phrases and different music forms. When you learn all the above, you get a firm grip on the music and thus can perform better and enjoy better.
Music theory gives you the ability to perform, compose, improvise, arrange or teach music. Moreover, if you are taking music as your career, getting a degree in the same will not be a tough game.
With the knowing of facts about music theory, music sight reading is also made simpler. Sight reading basically refers to reading and performing the musical notes simultaneously. This mainly includes those notes which you have not known earlier.
Some people find it difficult to get expertise in some notes and rhythms. For grasping this theory effectively, you have to understand the musical notations properly. So, give it sufficient time. Moreover, your patience and calmness will help you a lot in learning. And of course last but not the least, practice. Practice will help you learn better, easier, quicker.
