This is site has a wealth of information for students, educators, parents or anyone who is interested in music education. Users will find books, CDs, sheet music, etc. for sale but there are plenty of free resources to make the site worth a look also. Included in the free resources is an online music theory tutor (found under the Music heading) that allows the user to select from more than three dozen lessons and choose the type of trainer to work with from a drop down menu. Lessons are listed from the most basic to the more advanced and the trainers include note, key, guitar, brass and others.
