Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of harmony, a fundamental element of music theory. Drawing on the authorââ â¢s extensive experience in teaching the subject, the book presents a unique system that empowers beginners to compose bass parts and harmonize melodies with accuracy. The author's approach is grounded in the principles of the diatonic, chromatic, and enharmonic scales, a methodology that contrasts with the theoretical frameworks prevalent during the period in which the book was written. The book systematically guides readers through the process of constructing chords, understanding their variations and inversions, and navigating the intricacies of chord progressions. It delves into the concepts of close and extended harmony, the compass of different vocal parts, and the importance of rhythmic accents and cadences. Furthermore, it explores sequences, a musical technique that involves repeating a pattern of chords at different pitches, and provides detailed instructions for writing in four parts, a crucial aspect of composing for vocal ensembles. The authorââ â¢s meticulous explanation of these concepts, complemented by numerous musical examples, allows the reader to grasp the intricacies of harmony in a clear and practical manner. The book serves as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of harmony and to develop their skills in composing and arranging music.
