(I'm not sure if I should've posted this in the "Getting Started" forum or this, but this sounds more logical and stuff. So, I went with this)
Title says it all. I wanna start learning music theory because I'd like to, and I would also like to learn how to play a keyboard along the way (Duh). I know absolutely nothing about music theory (Except what a full note is, what a half note is, what a fourth note is, and how a note gets cut into half with those lil' marks at the top), and know how to play one song on the keyboard. The deal here is, does anyone know a book or two that can teach me music theory FROM THE ABSOLUTE ZERO. I want something that I will be able to carry with me offline, a book, a PC/iPad app, or even a couple of dozens of videos that I can download would be lovely. Same thing for the keyboard, any book recommendations or whatsoever that can get me started FROM THE ZERO? Last but not least, any tips for my long journey in the seas of music theory and journey of becoming keyboardist and embracing the keyboard? Last note is that I will be borrowing a keyboard for a month or more (Depending on how much it takes me to learn how to walk on a keyboard), and afterwards I will be getting my own keyboard MIDI controller because why not, is it okay if I borrowed a meh or pretty shit keyboard just to begin with? Why? Why not?
