Want a book on Music Theory that is fun and engaging and actually plays scales and music you can listen to? So did we!

The connected post is adapted from page 64 of our interactive Multi-Touch eBook 'Keys to Music Theory 1' available only on Apple Books.

Our most popular eBook, ‘Keys to Music Theory 1’, provides the solid foundations of music theory covering notation, pitch, key structure and scales, all types of intervals, time signatures, pulse and time. The book is user friendly, accessible to the new theory student, the young, the teenager, the interested adult and the teacher - anyone who wants to learn from scratch, consolidate a more advanced concept or brush up their understanding of how this wonderful language works.

There are visuals, sound files, galleries, ‘hint' and ‘learn more' popover buttons, interactives, movies, study cards, and testing questions with immediate feedback. You can highlight the text, make notes, check meanings in the glossary without leaving the page, return to the quizzes again and again - all at your own pace.

Clue: Take care that you are reading the correct clef.

The connected post is is an excerpt from page 37 of our Apple Interactive Multi-Touch eBook 'Quiz Yourself on Music Theory' available on Apple Books.

‘Quiz Yourself on Music Theory’ is a great way to review or revise your knowledge of the subject. It is packed with varied quiz questions and is an excellent tool for self testing.

It has grown out of, and is a supplement to, our comprehensive Multi-Touch ebook primer, ‘Keys to Music Theory 1’, which is also available on Apple Books. It contains a large portion of the questions in that book, plus many more that have been created specifically for this resource. This book can also be used as a stand-alone study aid, assuming that the reader already has a fairly good grasp of the elements to be tested.

There are ‘learn more’ and ‘hint’ popover buttons containing extra information or nudges, sound files and galleries, drag and drop questions, true or false, match or no match, all with immediate answers at a tap, all to make the whole experience more engaging and more fun.

You can scroll through the comprehensive glossary, which contains every glossary entry from ‘Keys to Music Theory 1’, make your own notes, highlight sections to remember, and further test your knowledge with the useful set of ‘tap and swipe’ study cards.

What is covered:
- the symbols of notation: notes, rests, pitch, clefs, accidentals and enharmonics
- key structures: Modes, Major, Minor, Chromatic, key signatures, and scales
- intervals: numbering and naming, and inversions
- time: pulse, tempo, time signatures - Simple, Compound, Irregular, metre - Duple, Triple, Quadruple, and irregular beamings

This book will test you extensively on much that could arise in the ‘Grade 5 Theory Exam’ - this is an intermediate qualification frequently sought in the UK, and one that is now going online. Once you have mastered this material you will be well on your way to success at this level.

The answers in order from left to right are “FACE” “BAGGED” and “BADGE”.
