UK Music Theory Exams Approach!

The ABRSM music theory exams take place this Saturday 20th June at 10am. Are you ready?!

Good luck to all of you who are taking a theory exam this session! Don't forget that mymusictheory offers you a free "ask a question" service - so if you have any last minute panics just send an email to questions@mymusictheory.com - I usually manage to respond within a few hours. I've already had a lot of emails in the last few days - please keep them coming!

One or two people have asked me recently why I don't charge for this service: and the answer is that I just simply enjoy helping people out. I get all kinds of questions - some simple, some complicated, some bizarre and some down-right silly, but I do endeavour to answer them all. If I manage to help a few people grab a few extra marks in their exam, (or better still get a merit or distinction), then I feel like I've done something useful. I love to hear from candidates who have passed their theory exams with good scores after using my lessons or asking questions by email.

News from me is that I have a new arrival in my family - my baby son Edward was born on 23rd May and is happy and healthy. Lucky for you lot, this means I'm at home most of the time, so I have plenty of time for answering your questions!

Looking forward to hearing all about Saturday's exams - good luck again if you're taking part!
