A view of some of their [tag]music theory[/tag] offerings:
This site is useful for both beginners and experts alike. I, for one, am very appreciative of the free offerings, especially with no advertisements! The articles are very extensive and many have been written by the renowned Dr. Brian Blood. The information contained within these articles and chapters are broken down into easily understood segments, allowing anyone to learn from the information.
