Music Theory 3 Course

Music Theory 3 (with play button)

This Music Theory 3 course focuses on constructing and identifying chords. Learning to construct and identify chords will give you an efficient understanding of the harmonic design of music, and will allow you to quickly bring the music you’re studying to life on your instrument. Chords are used throughout many styles of music, and learning about the construction and function of chords should be a priority for all musicians.   

Our lessons will help you develop your knowledge on a step-by-step basis. In addition to reviewing the basic construction of triads, you will learn about different chord positions and how to build and identify 7th chords. You will learn about cadences, the function and identification of non-chord tones, and how to analyze chords using the tools of Roman numeral analysis.

Liberty Park Music (LPM) is an online music school. We teach music through videos and supporting materials like homework assignments and backing tracks. Currently, we offer lessons on piano, guitar, drums, and music theory. We will introduce more instruments, subjects, and services in the future to give you even more choices.

All you need is a computer or a mobile device that allows web browsing. With a reasonably stable and fast internet connection, your viewing experience is optimized on your desktops, laptops, or tablets.

We are constantly producing and publishing new lessons, about one new module each month, for every instrument and subject.  So you always have new materials to work on. 

Your membership, regardless of of your plan, should give you access to the entire library of lessons. That means ALL lessons are available to you, across instruments, styles, levels, and subjects. For example, you can take piano and theory lessons at the same time, or if you have a good musical appetite, take our piano and drum kit lessons at the same time! It's your choice.

Yes. Learning music online may seem novel to you, but if we can learn a language and other skills online, why not music? Online music lessons allow you to learn on your schedule, in the comfort of any locale of your choice, and at your own pace. You can pause when you need a moment to digest the lesson or rewind to view a particular section again. 

We accept credit card payments or PayPal, powered by Stripe and PayPal for your security. We also don't save any of your credit card information in our database.
