Music theory is the set of ideas that explains how songs are built. A scale is a ladder of notes, and stacking several at once makes a chord. The clef at the start of a staff tells you which notes are which, while sharps and flats raise or lower them by a half step. Tempo sets the speed, rhythm the pattern, and together a melody and its harmony give a piece its shape. These eleven terms cover the basics.
