- Learning to read music (bass and treble clef note positions: FACE/ACEG/ACE)

- Accidentals

- Tone/Semitone (Step/Halfstep) and what that means in relation to the keys on your keyboard

- Major scale "formula"

- Intervals

These things should occupy you for a while and will allow you to read, play, and have a decent understanding of most music. Then look into circle of fifths (more easily understood after you've learned to play some the different major scales), triads(chords), etc.

Hey there,

thanks for the topic list, it will help me a lot :)

I found all these in this free course on Udemy: Music Theory Classes

I think I will go with that for now, it's free and seems to be aiming for beginners and got all the topics you listed! :)
