Music theory

Music theory is a field of study that describes the elements of music and includes the development and application of methods for analyzing and composing music, and the interrelationship between the notation of music and performance practice. Broadly, theory may include any statement, belief, or conception of music (Boretz, 1995).

Notation

Music notation is the graphical representation of music. In standard notation, notes and rhythms are represented as symbols on the musical staff, along with directions indicating the key, tempo, dynamics, etc.
