Course Description: This semester-long Theory and Ear Training program is designed to develop well-rounded musicians by integrating ear training with music theory. Emphasizing aural skills, the curriculum fosters a deep understanding of musical structures through practical exercises, ensuring students grow as "complete musicians." By the end of the semester, students will demonstrate their understanding by producing a one-page composition capstone project. The program is structured for two age groups with tailored levels, offering a comprehensive yet accessible approach to music education.
