Harmonic Materials in Tonal Music: A Programmed Course, Part 1
Description
Created for introductory courses in basic music theory and harmonic practice, Part 1 of this self-paced, auto-instructional standalone text that comes in two volumes has become a "classic" in the field. Since the students work independently through the programmed format of the text, instructors can concentrate on the more creative aspects of their course. From the wealth of clearly laid-out lessons and exercises, students receive continual feedback and reinforcement as they work through the sequence at their own pace.
