Excerpts from the book Basic Music Theory

Theory is the summary of experience and practice, knowledge is the multitude of different aspects of reality, the result of examining the internal system of phenomena, and the approach to their regularity; So applying theory is nothing more than taking advantage of past lives and actions. Sometimes theory and practice seem to be in conflict with each other, but this conflict itself is part of the process of life; The two complement each other, as neglect and what in art – ultimately detrimental to the greenness and fertility of the tree of life. The relationship between theory and practice in music is as important as, for example, in physics and mechanics.

A musician who plays the instrument in the traditional way, without knowing the theory of music, is like repairing something that he blindly tries to repair without knowing the mechanics and mathematical calculations and relationships of the components of a car, and in doing so. His tool is nothing but individual observations and learnings. Of course, it is possible to acquire individual skills through trial and error, practice and perseverance; But what drives the speed and depth of learning is the use of theory. Teaching theory, if it is a prelude to practice, in addition to saving learning time, also involves mastering all aspects of the subject matter and enlightenment in practice. In other words, theory makes the process of learning action easier and shorter, and of course, in the light of theory, it no longer seems so difficult and dark.
