This is the First video in the Beginner's Music Theory series. Watch it now:

In this lesson we ask "What is music theory?" What is it not, and what mistakes to avoid?

We talk about:
• Is it hard to learn?
• Music as a language
• Chicken or the Egg?
• Prescription or Description?
• Our goals for the series and more!

Video is in HD 1080p (click on the "settings" gear icon and select 1080 from the "quality" menu)!
