This course is open to students aged 13 and up who are interested in learning about chords, chord progressions, and how they operate within a piece of music or pop song. Adult beginners are welcome and encouraged!

This course is for students who can read music and have an understanding of major scales, minor scales, and intervals. If you don't already possess this knowledge I recommend you take "Foundations: Music Literacy" and "Building Blocks: Scales and Intervals" first.
