Thats a really good article for anyone who wants to learn some basic theory, it cleared up keys and all that good stuff for me and i'm not even half way thru it, its good for beginners.

Here's a good place to go to if you'd like to learn how to read sheet music. It also covers theory.

The best place to learn about music would probably be a university, to tell you the truth. Heh.

Read these online books, too: http://www.musicarrangers.com/star-theory/
