Yep.

When I went to music school, we had individual instrument lessons and theory classes. No matter which instrument someone played theory was explained on a keyboard and a keyboard hung in every room, sort of like periodic table of elements in a chemistry classroom or a map in a geography classroom.

Keyboard is very nicely laid out and it's easy to visualize relationships between notes by visualizing the keyboard.

Former music student here. Totally agree. The layout of the keyboard is a really good graphical representation of how scales work. I can’t imagine trying to learn theory without having some keyboard experience.

Any YouTube channel recommendations or resources for someone who is a visual learner?
