Music theory

The study of musical possibilities and historical practices involving musical notation and interpretation (essential for understanding the rest of the course) in a musicological approach.

- Music theory can be a tool box, a rule book (that can be broken), or a guideline for composers to help them develop their own ideas of composing their pieces of all genres with chord progressions, tonal & atonal harmony, melodic structuring and many more methods.

- Many modern contemporary composers have broken many of the common practice period composing rules; Claude Debussy, Igor Stravinsky & Ivan Shostakovich are notable examples.

- Jazz music theory, or known as jazz harmony uses similar approaches to Western harmony but often use harmonies that are often played within the genre with additional tension using 9th, 11th, and 13th chords with incorporated usages of modes, and dissonant chords (augmented & diminished chords) and chord progressions that aren’t conforming to traditional music theory.

- There are prominent theorists on YouTube such as Adam Neely, David Bruce, 8-Bit Music Theory, etc. that do analyses and compose pieces using methods of music theory as they explain viewers regardless of their knowledge input of theory.
“I wouldn’t say that music theory is a mandate, but it’s highly recommended if you’re willing to pursue in a musical career.”

Pop music

Contemporary, Poppy music. Poppy means Simple and Catchy. What I mean by simple, is that it doesn't combine a variety of too many genres, it doesn't use too many instruments at once, it doesn't use strict requirements: very heavy, very relaxed, very fast, very slow, not using complicated sounds in the same way as Jazz, Classical, Indie, Folk, and typically having slower time durations compared to other genres, average duration for pop (1-3 minutes), average duration for soul, funk, r&b, blues and rock (2-4 minutes), average duration for hip hop and folk (4-7 minutes). Contemporary means it's the opposite of traditional music. Contemporary is in the modern time period (1950-present) and avoids and lacks elements of folk or classical.
Pop music is the most popular and simple genre of music.
