Introduction to Music Theory

While I was a research assistant in Singapore in the Sound and Media Computing lab of National University of Singapore's School of Computing, my supervisor, professor Ye Wang, gave me the great opportunity of holding one lecture in CS4347: Sound and Music Computing course. The lecture aimed to provide a basic understanding of music theory, and it targeted computer science students. In order to do that I created the concept of explaining music theory using feelings and I presented it receiving an amazing feedback. I would really like to hear your comments on this. I think that explaining things by simplifying them and by using simple analogies has a great potential to raise interest and inspire passion to students. What do you think? Special thanks to professor Ye Wang and to Zhiyan Duan who handled the recording of the lecture.
