Music Theory

The ABRSM Theory structure has long been a part of the thorough understanding of music and Grade 5 Theory is a pre-requisite to progress through to the Grade 6,7 and 8 of the ABRSM practical grades.

Tutors from Lincolnshire Music Service will be offering online theory lessons for students (old or young - age is no boundary) based on the progression of the ABRSM Theory method.

Cost 

Grades 1 - 5

£65 for a block of 10 x 30 minute lessons. Times may vary due to tutor availability.

Grades 6,7,8 - bespoke pricing due to the length of the course needed to complete this graded level.

Details

Sessions have a minimum and maximum number of participants, and we will therefore have a waitinglist system in operation. You will be notified when you have been placed on an available course. If a minimum number of students has not been met, the course cannot take place. Sessions will take place after school hours and full commitment is expected. Once a place has been offered and accepted, the course of lessons can be paid for. No credits can be given for missed or cancelled lessons.

Please note that the booklets are a necessary part of the course and can be purchased direct from the ABRSM website here: Music Theory Books
