Customizable Music Theory Drills

For many years now, MusicTheory.net has been a great website to send students to for drill practice of music theory, especially note reading. The site has undergone a transformation by moving to HTML5 coding language and away from the reliance on the proprietary Adobe flash format.

Now the teachers is able to create customized lessons with choice of clef, note range, and other variables. This simplifies the way students can interact with the website, and the way that you can appropriately arrange elements of a drill for your students.

Click my link below to see how I customize a note reading exercise for beginning violent students.

Beginning Violin Note Reading Drill

All of the notes it uses are in the first octave of the D major scale, the range of notes I would like my beginners to know.  You can do this with various clefs for viola cello/bass as well. If you want to reinforce a new concept, such as G string notes. You can make an exercise that focus solely on those notes.

Special thanks to Ricci Adams for continuing the development and expansion of this wonderful resource!
