I’m studying theory because I want to get it. Musicians seem to have a natural ear for music and seem to understand it instinctually. I do not have that, but I’ll be damned if I don’t give it a try. My goal with this is to be able to perform comfortably at an open mic someday

I want to learn music theory because I hit a wall. Started reading sheet music but I cannot recognize chords. Want to improv, I have all the scales and chords in my head but it doesn’t translate.

To answer why I am learning music theory- I also started learning in my teens in the 90’s but didnt have any guidence so got lost a bit and bored because it seemed tedious. I have tried t start many times over the years and even completed a foundations course in music recently just to get some basic understanding. Anyway my main goal is to undertand why how chords are put together and how to play over chord changes. I have always been a good improv musician but have based my playing on the minor pentatonic
