Music Theory Online

any online websites to help with grade 4 theory?

hey…erm at the moment I’m at grade 6 level on the piano…now this would be all great if I could just sit my grade 6 but you know there is the small problem of theory…and I hate theory…and I’m really terrible at theory.
So anyway, I have a really good piano teacher, and we have done the grade 3 theory together, but grade 4 seems so much harder and I’m finding it really disgusting. (I have to sit grade 5 theory before grade 6…so if I’m finding grade 4 hard…then that’s bad!)
I only see my piano teacher once a week, and I’m left to do the 2007 grade 4 theory papers, and I find them so hard! So I go to my piano teacher…ask her about difficult parts, we sort them out..then I’m instantly finding it hard again.
anyway what I’m getting at is if anyone has any suggestions for an online music theory help kind of thing…somewhere where I could just refer to certain things I need help with.
So any suggestions?

Hi

I’m the author of http://www.mymusictheory.com – it’s a website aimed at students doing the graded music theory exams. I don’t have lessons specifically for grade four up yet (but they are in the pipeline!) but you will find the complete course for grade five, which means you will cover everything you need for grade 4 and more!

The lessons are completely free to use online and include exercises. I also offer an “ask a question” service, so if there is something you don’t understand or if you have any other music theory questions, you can fire away and ask whenever you like.

I hope the website helps!

But A Tribe Called Quest may have been even stronger, especially on their excellent second album, the bass-thumping, heavily jazz-sampled The Low End Theory. According to the opening “Excursions,” rapper Q-Tip’s old man says…

The Theory and Techniques of Electronic Music $128.99 This is the first book to develop both the theory and the practice of synthesizing musical sounds using computers. Each chapter starts with a theoretical description of one technique or problem area and ends with a series of working examples (over 100 in all), covering a wide range of applications. A unifying approach is taken throughout; chapter two, for example, treats both sampling and wavetable synthesis as special cases of one underlying technique. Although the theory is presented quantitatively, the mathematics used goes no further than trigonometry and complex numbers. The examples and supported software — along with a machine-readable version of the text — are available on the web and maintained by a large online community. The Theory and Techniques of Electronic Music is valuable both as a textbook and as professional reading for electronic musicians and computer music researchers.
