Music Theory: Key Signatures, Sight Reading & the Circle of Fifths

Understanding music theory makes everything else on the saxophone easier — reading notation, transposing parts, navigating chord changes and communicating with other musicians. These tutorials break down essential theory topics in plain language, with clear diagrams and practical exercises you can take straight to your instrument.

Start with the circle of fifths to master key signatures, then build your fluency with the sight-reading guide. Both tutorials include free downloadable resources so you can keep practising away from the screen.
