Sight reading helper
Sheet music reading, often perceived as challenging, is an invaluable skill for musicians of all roles. Whether you aim to decipher your favorite songs or expand your musical knowledge, understanding sheet music is highly beneficial. Our sight-reading chart simplifies this concept by breaking down notes on the bass and treble clefs. Additionally, mnemonic aids are provided to help you recall the precise names of each space on the clefs.
- ✅ Individually colored notes
- 🎹 Bass/treble cleff
The music modes
Musical modes are distinct scales with unique melodic characteristics. Derived from ancient Western music, the 7 modes (Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Locrian) hold great significance. Our modes table empowers you to identify and learn the formulas for each mode, enabling you to incorporate them effectively in your songwriting.
- ✅ Ionian mode
- ✅ Dorian mode
- ✅ Mixolydian mode
- ✅ Aeolian mode
- ✅ Locrian mode
Chord inversions
Once you've mastered chord construction, inversions can add intrigue to your compositions. In music, inversions involve rearranging the elements of intervals, chords, or melodies from top to bottom. This technique serves multiple purposes, such as creating melodic bass lines or facilitating modulation to new keys. Inverting a chord or interval means reshuffling its notes, with the original bottom note ascending to an upper position. This imparts unique character to chords and eases their integration into chord progressions.

Circle of fifths simplified
The circle of fifths is a highly valuable music theory concept, albeit challenging to grasp for many. It aids in memorizing key signatures, familiarizing oneself with instruments, and unlocking creativity in chord progressions. To facilitate understanding, we've created a simplified visualization of the circle of fifths. This visual guide reveals the number of sharps or flats in each key and highlights their positions on the keyboard. The circle of fifths offers a convenient representation of the twelve musical keys, grouping them based on shared notes for easy recall.
