Theory of Music Syllabus (from 2009)
Our Theory of Music syllabus responds to modern teaching and learning styles.
Available from Grade 1-8, the syllabus provides a comprehensive and carefully incremented approach to the technical language of music, supported by approachable workbooks. Although there are no theory prerequisites for taking any Trinity College London practical graded exams, theoretical musical knowledge works to enhance and support practical studies.
