Synopsis
Immersed in musical literature, and written by a leader in the field of music theory, this book covers all of the basic topics: music notation; rhythm, scales; intervals; triads; and basic harmonic progressions. It engages readers )and listeners) in the process of making music—emphasizing, at every stage, that music is to be heard and made—not merely seen and learned as theoretical concepts in the abstract. An anthology of core works in diverse tonal styles is included on an accompanying interactive CD—enabling learners to understand each musical excerpt in its larger context, and to see how each basic concept functions in music of high artistic quality. Chapter topics cover pitch, rhythm and meter, major and minor scales, intervals, triads and seventh chords, and fundamentals of harmony. For those who make and enjoy music—and want to understand it better and appreciate it more.
