Standard Set Answer:I am a guitarist. I have been playing for 4 years and still dont really understand music theory and how it works, which makes my improvisation limited. I've known for a while that I would have to learn music theory if I wanted to become better, but I really havnt had a way to do that until now.
I hope to achieve a firm foundation in music theory, and its application.
If I knew more, and thought that i could help i would be interested in helping with course organization.
Yes I love music.
I do want to learn more about music, and music theory, I am a guitarist and have little understanding of how music works, so i would like to change that.
I would like to learn everything I can, so I can be more well rounded musically.
I think this course will allow me to expand on what i know, and also help teach me about theory and its uses. I have tried studying theory on my own, and have had a hard time, so I am hoping that having actual interactions with people who already know theory, will help me.
