Music Theory App
Learn to read and play music
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Read the note, play it on the piano — 23 hands-on lessons from keys to chords.
Learn music theory the hands-on way — read each note on a real staff, then play it on the built-in piano. Every lesson runs Learn → Play → Test → Quiz, so you understand an idea, play it, prove it, and lock it in.
23 structured lessons cover the essentials:
• The keyboard and note names, sharps and flats, whole and half steps
• Major and minor scales, key signatures, and the circle of fifths
• Melodic and harmonic intervals
• Major, minor, and dominant seventh chords, inversions, arpeggios, and I–IV–V progressions
• Rhythm and note values, dotted notes, and cadences
Each lesson pairs a clear explanation with audio and a guided play-along exercise on a responsive keyboard that lights up the next note (with finger numbers if you want them).
Plus:
• Songs — learn real melodies note by note with a follow-along score
• Sight-reading practice, an interactive Circle of Fifths, a theory glossary, and a Free Play piano sandbox with live chord detection
• Quizzes, progress tracking, stars, and daily streaks to keep you moving
Built for complete beginners through early-intermediate players. Whether you're picking up an instrument or just want to understand how music works, this is a solid, playable foundation in the language of music.
