As I learn more  and more, I get more fascinated by it.  If you too are interested, you can also start learning...

Well... then you should think of studying music from any music institute, which conducts the courses as per the syllabus of premier institutions like Trinity college of London

Once you enroll into any such local institutes, where you learn music as per Trinity College, you will go through a grade system. It starts from, Initial, grade 1, grade 2, grade 3, grade4, grade5, grade 6, grade 7, grade 8, ATCL, LTCL and FTCL. Every grade will have theory examinations and practical examinations. Practical examination will be based on the instrument you choose to study.

Well..if you want to learn music just as a hobby, not for a degree, no need to worry about Trinity college and syllabus. Just go to a local music institute and learn..
