Fast, Easy, and Focused Method for Learning Music Theory

Is All About Getting It Down Cold!

Music Students and Teachers,

My name is Brad Chidester and I'm the owner of Music Learning Workshop.com.

music theory courseI've studied music both the hard way and the easy way.  After finding out that there is a better, faster, and easier way to learn music 

I developed this course as a way to help others learn music quicker and with less effort.


The Issue: 

"Finding a Music Course 
Which Allows You to Accelerate Learning Music."

You can find a lot of information about music theory concepts that are the basis for learning music. 

However...

I even know that most teachers take far too long to get the theory taught to their students.

Others make sure you are getting it done at a much faster rate. And quite frankly you need to find one or be one of those teachers.

Some of you have even tried those books that insult your intelligence. You're not dumb or an idiot, you have simply not been informed. Please, you wouldn't be looking for a resource like this if you were. You're smart because you're looking for that great resource that's going to get you where you want to go.

Theorist vs. Note by Note Teaching

Did you know that the great composers where taught by theorists and were not taught note by note. They were composers because they truly understood and used theory concepts.

Today teaching is done mostly note by note and therefore people don't read music they spell it note by note. You can learn to play but you don't understand what you're playing.

It's the folks that take the time to learn music concepts that become
great composers and arrangers and masters of performance.

My mentors have said that they have students who have been taught for several years and don't even know how to define or understand intervals. (The distance between two notes.) This is one of most basic concepts we have in music.

Studying music principals and applying that knowledge is really the key to accelerating your music learning experience.

The Fast and Easy Way

That's why I have developed workshops and this music theory course that accelerate your knowledge of these fundamental elements of music and allow you to learn music fast and get the concepts down cold.

The Value of Good Resources

Let's take a look at value of using a quality resource like the Getting It Down Cold Music Theory Course. 

The amount of knowledge in this course, taught the old traditional way, would easily take 3 to 5 years to learn. And it's likely you won't even learn it all by then.

If you apply consistent effort with the Music Theory Course you can learn that theory in under a year and have mastered it as well.

The average cost of lessons is $100 to $125 USD per month or about $1200 per year

So for easy math let's say it takes you 3 years to learn all this information. Hey, and quite frankly I'll bet you don't get all of it in that time frame. So...

$1200  x 3 yrs = $3,600 USD.

and at 5 years 

$1200  x 5 yrs = $6,000 USD

Now, a lot of that goes to learning your instrument and playing and all the good stuff. But the inadequate theory lessons slow down progress. So you aren't learning as fast as you should.

My experience is that you are likely to get 5 to 7 music books a year on average while taking lessons.

Say your lucky and only pay on average $10 per book per year, that's another.

$50  x 5 is equal to $250 or 

at $20 per book ($100 x 5 = $500)

It's more like $500 from the prices out there today. But guess what, they only give you a fraction of the theory you will learn with this music theory course.

Now I've compared books available and when I tallied up the cost of those books in the store to cover the same amount of learning materials, I was shocked dismayed, and appalled!

I was able to easily spend over $200 and it still wasn't as complete! I even ended up in advanced jazz books to get some of this basic information.

How's the beginning student ever going to make it with that approach?

Take a look at it another way.

If you obtain a complete, practical, and easy to use and understand music theory course that takes 3 to 5 years off your study time, 

you can save thousands of dollars in lessons. 

You could well be on my way to being a confident musician whether for fun, profit, or dazzling your friends.


Sure it would. You can get to your end goal for a whole lot less money and effort.
