"Music Theory Tools" contains many exercises which will help you progress in the recognition and use of certain key concepts of music theory, including intervals, scales and chords. By mastering these concepts, you will be able to use for a better understanding of music theory, but also for improvisation and composition.

The exercises are divided into two categories: written music theory and ear training. Here are the exercises:
