Music Theory Links: these links take you to web-based programs to help build your music reading skills. Always go to "Settings" first to set the rules---your clef, the difficulty level, etc.
| Basic Note Reading Drills: great basic drills to help you learn note names in your clef. Be sure to go to "Settings" first to set your clef. Drag the notes up/down to set what note you need to drill. |
