Music Theory on your iPhone!
Dr. Joel Clifft, a professor in the music department at Azusa Pacific University and the University of Southern California, has created Music Theory Pro – an iPhone app for musicians or anyone who wants to learn music. His students joke:
“It’s like having Dr. Clifft in my pocket!”
Beginners quickly become Pros
Users who are just learning music will be able to practice naming notes on the piano and on the staff. As they progress they will master key signatures, intervals and chords. The app provides detailed, multi-media explanations for each concept.
Sharpen your ears
The ear training section provides several challenges for the more advanced student. It takes a sharp ear to identify seventh chords and modal scales quickly. There is even a tempo quiz to identify beats per minute by assigning a number to a click track.
Increase your skills by competing with others
Various exercises propel you to higher scores, which you can post to compete for top ratings. Who will be #1 in the world this month? Could be you!
