Music theory teaches the basic fundamentals to music such as reading,composing,and just giving you a better understanding of music.

By the way this has saved my but in lots of tests and yes even finals. One final that rings a bell would be my english final my junior year the last semester of the year. I thought I was gonna fail but i just hummed the answers in song format and I got a B on the test. So in conclusion choir has helped me a great deal in this
