Worksheets

Over the years, I, and others have created supplemental worksheets to use with our students. They are all available here for anyone to use as needed. Many of these were created to accompany "Techniques and Materials of Tonal Music" by Benjamin, Horvit, and Nelson (in fact, many of them are actual examples from the text). Although we are currently using a different text, I have retained all of the worksheets for anyone who may find them useful.

For practicing fundamentals such as scales, intervals, key signatures, etc., students may want to use the excellent online practice programs which can be found on the theory websites listed in "Quicklinks" to the left. Musictheory.net and Emusictheory both have drill programs for all or most of these skills. Practicespot has many worksheets for additional fundamentals practice.

If you know of other websites that have proven valuable in your music theory studies, please feel free to share them with me! Simply email me at: bhammel@vcu.edu.
