Learning music theory is just as important as learning grammar when it comes to writing. There are many (if not more) grammatical rules and errors that can be made when writing a simple sentence, but if you know the rules, you will be able to write a sentence that is grammatically correct. The same goes for music theory. If you know the rules, you will be able to write music that is correct and can be understood by other musicians.
It’s also important to learn music theory because it puts you in a different headspace. It’s an incredible tool for composition and production. If you learn music theory, you’ll always integrate it into what you do.
