This list is for those musicians and other people who wish to learn more about theory. We are once again beginning 'at the beginning' and will gradually build to more advanced skills such as counterpoint and orchestral arrangement. I (Janna, list owner) have a degree in music composition and will be conducting the lessons, but anyone who is experienced in this area should feel free to join in and answer questions of the 'students'.
You will require a music notation program or some manuscript paper to do assignments; a free program that looks good can be found at http://www.musescore.org/
If there is something you would like to discuss, don't hesitate to bring it up!
