Music Theory for Producers

Music Theory Course for the New York Public Library

In the Fall of 2024 I co-developed with Walter Ferguson a 5-part music theory course for the New York Public Library’s studio40. The course was designed for library patrons with no prior musical training or access to musical instruments, with an emphasis on applying music theory within the context of producing music in a DAW.

  1. Intro to Music Theory
  2. Groove and Harmony
  3. Song Structure and Arrangement
  4. Reharmonization
  5. Ear Training
