        Really good series

        I am a voice teacher and use this book with students who want some theory work. Advantages are that students can work on their own; there is plenty of review within the exercises; all the information they need is contained within the lessons; I don't have to take a lot...

        Awesome!

        I have all my students go through this series. It's methodical, starts VERY basic, covers all the bases, but takes a student all the way up to college level theory. It's also cheap, which the parents like.

        Master Theory Book 1

        This book is great for beginners and should be used if you are just starting music. However, I would skip to Book 2 if you have been playing music for at least a few years. This book covers basic music like what notes are, the staff and accidentals. Don't waste...

        Good for Fiddles

        Not all students take piano, and good theory books for violin students are particularly hard to find. My students find this book easy to understand and non-threatening. I recommend it for students who play a variety of instruments.

        Hightly Recomend for Self Teaching.

        Great way to study Music Theory on your own and at your own speed. Good exercises and understandable explanations. If you feel unsure about something you can get a teach to grade your test.
