AboutChuck Expertise I am a professional musician, I can play by ear, I arrange music write music, teach music in the public school system, and teach privately. My father was a school music teacher, and I have written three volumes for teaching beginning string players, taking them from scratch to high school level. I have performed in a local production of Music Man (musical) with celebrities John Davidson/Susan Watson and have my masters degree in education. I retired from the classroom in 2004 with 38 yrs. experience-now still substituting for music- and writing arr. for my cello trio(with two audio cd's and one dvd of a performance)http://cellosound.blogspot.com
I have directed church choirs and am principal cellist in our local community orchestra. I really love to arrange music for the groups I perform in and sing and have music in my life every day. A day without music, is a mistake, like having a day without sunshine.

Answer Dear Rafi:
Thanks for the inquiry. Your interest is learning music theory (?)
or Music Related Skills from a course outline>? AT present I am not
familiar with an online course outline that might do that. I think
there are other members of this 'panel' that can help you with that.
I'd suggest your inquiry be put to the 'panel' for help in this area.
I'm going to submit your question to the ''others'' - i hope that will
get you the help and information you need.
Thanks for contacting this forum, it IS A GOOD RESOURCE of help.
