music theory
Fantastic introduction to the blues and to music theory.
I have a strong background studying classical, 20th century and modern music theory techniques, and that was the only reason I was able to finish this course.
I am a self-taught amateur musician, and this course really helped me see the underlying connections amongst the various music theory concepts, especially those pertaining to harmony and improvisation, that I have tried to learn on my own.
Very well explained, step by step, increasing difficulty and suitable for different levels of music theory knowledge.
