This course, from the University of Edinburgh's Reid School of Music (recently ranked first in the UK), is suitable for those who have never studied music academically. It will introduce you to the theory of Western music, providing you with the skills needed to read and write Western music notation, as well as to understand, analyse, and listen informedly.
It will provide the basis for the further study of music both from a theoretical and practical point of view: musicology, pastiche and free composition, analysis, performance, and aural skills.
It will also be useful to experienced musicians without music notation skills who wish to extend their practice through a grounding in the tools of Western music theory and notation.

Suggested Readings
Although not required to participate in the course, an excellent text/reference book for the course would be:
S. M. Kostka, D. Payne. Tonal Harmony. McGraw-Hill Education, 2008.
We understand that this might be hard to find or prohibitively expensive where you're living, so it really is just a suggestion. A good and cheaper substitution would be:
E. Taylor. The AB Guide to Music Theory Vol 1. Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music, 1989.
