So, being that she loves the computer almost as much as the piano, she
asked us to look for a computer program that deals with music theory.
Anyone have any experience in this realm?

Help appreciated. Thanks!

Hi there David,

Here is a site that my daughter has enjoyed. It was developed by a
musician and academic from Nova Scotia. I hope that you enjoy it.

www.musictheory.halifax.ns.ca/1gs.html
please note;(that is a 'one' before the gs)

I will ask the teachers at the music school where the boys go. A lot of the
teachers are in school themselves, and probably know some good ones. It will
probably be Tuesday before I can find out as their next band is Mon. night.
