What Makes Music Work makes learning a simple and natural
process--even if you've never taken a formal music course in music theory.
Unlike other books, this one has many step-by-step exercises to help you
master the material as you progress. Readers love this book as you can
see below. With this book you will learn to:
- Read, write and play music.
- Identify its basic components
- Understand form and structure
- Compose a song
You'll find answers to questions like these:
- How do notes combine in harmony?
- How can I easily read those super high notes?
- What makes some sounds pleasing, others discordant?
- How do composers expand small musical ideas into full-scale pieces?
Music Theory -- What Readers are Saying
Well-organized, Excellent Music
Theory Book
"A lucid, well-organized introduction
to music theory" --American Library Association.
"I always loved music; thank you for helping me understand it."
-- John Giunta, North Bellmore, New York.
"Your publication is absolutely excellent." - Jennifer Linton,
North Eastham, MA.
"Understandable,
Wonderful" Music Theory
"Thorough and understandable." --
Valere Meyer, Toledo, Ohio.
"I've read What Makes Music Work and it was wonderful." --
David Odera Okumu, Naivasha, Kenya.
Chord Progressions,
Composition, Harmonization
"It has helped me with theory a great
deal. For instance, I now understand how to compose a song using motives,
and I value the section on chord progression and harmonization.
Thank you ever so much for writing this book." Steven Flowers,
New York, New York
Deep Music Theory
"Understandable
yet deep. This is a great book. When I first saw this book I thought
it seemed too basic. It starts out with pitch and moves on to rhythm.
These are things I know about, I play piano. But soon, as I was reading
the book, I found easy to understand discussions of Mixylodian Modes
and I-V-vi-IV-V-I chord progressions. Its lucid explanations of tough
concepts make this an easy 5 stars. A great book for beginners to music
theory (like me). " -- Robby
Walker, Glendale, AZ
