Music Theory Lessons
HCM Music Academy’s music theory lessons unlock the 'grammar' of music for students aged 7 and up. Our one-on-one sessions help you master chords, notation, and musical creativity, enhancing your overall musicianship.
Lessons Overview
Music theory has been called the ‘grammar’ of music, and our lessons teach you all you need to know to understand and speak this melodic language.
HCM music theory lessons are a great extension to HCM’s instrument lessons and are open to children and adults from 7 and up. Sessions take place each week at HCM Music Academy and are held on a one-to-one basis, in either 30, 45 or 60-minute slots – the choice is yours.

Just you
Lessons are billed on a termly basis, but we’re happy to offer a one-off trial lesson. This gives you the chance to meet the tutor and get a feel for what you will gain from our music theory lessons before committing to a full term.

Music theory is not just learning how to build chords, recognise intervals and understand key signatures. Every single concept in music theory is an idea or foundation for learning how to express your thoughts with sound and music. HCM music theory lessons see you study a range of interlocking skills, including notation, listening, musical perception, creativity and much more. Classes will be uniquely designed to cater for your particular interests and skill level.
