About the “Discover, Learn, Play” Music Program

The innovative “Discover, Learn, Play” system from the Dallas School of Music was featured as part of our top online courses article and we’re always quick to recommend them when it comes to instrument learning online. Their online teaching for every instrument provides music theory and interactive learning to give you a solid foundation, which is then immediately put to real musical use as you apply your new knowledge to your instrument with each chapter’s songs.

What are dlp Music Books?

This series of “Music Books” are really a reinvention of what a “music book” is. They’re actually more like an online course than a traditional textbook, built with the years of expertise and experience the DSM team have in teaching instruments effectively. In fact these are the same “books” used in the Dallas School of Music itself—now made available online for every country and device: use them on your desktop PC or Mac, iPhone/iPod/iPad, or Android smartphone or tablet.

Each Music Book includes:

  • 3 “lessons” teaching you about a particular aspect of music
    Lessons start from the basics of rhythm and reading music in Book 1 of the Kore series, continuing on through scales and chords, and advanced material in the Jazz series.
    Instrument Lesson Example
  • 9 interactive quizzes
    These interactive quizzes test you on each lesson and include audio clips so you can work on your ear training alongside your music theory and instrument practice.
    Instrument Lesson Quiz
  • 27 practice songs
    Specially-composed songs to bring the theory to life on your instrument. You get the sheetmusic (which you can open in the free Finale Notepad software) and play-along MP3s for your part, the whole song, and just the backing part for you to play over.
    Song exampleExample song audio
  • Instruction for 37 instruments
    Amazing value for the multi-instrumentalist: you get access to the material for every instrument!
