About the book >.>.> First: That so-called "theory" should be an explanation of the structure of music for appreciative, executive, and creative pur- poses. Music literature of the classic and romantic periods is the field of investigation, and hence the learning sequence should con- form to the harmonic usage or chord frequency as found in music literature of these periods. Second: That general principles of structure should emerge from this study of literature and be applied directly through specific techniques that are learned only when needed for growing insight and understanding. Third: That all phases of study (written and keyboard facility, and aural and visual perception) be coordinated into a single uni- fied conception of musical structures to meet the practical needs of the performer, creator, or listener. Such a different approach raises many new problems; it is the purpose of this Foreword to discuss and, if possible, to solve them. (MP). …
