Synopsis

Reinvent harmony for students and teachers with a direct‑method approach. This classic instruction advocates letting learners compose early and often, rather than locking them into rules. In Music Composition: A New Method of Harmony, Gardner argues that spontaneity, interest, and appreciation should drive how harmony is taught, not rigid theory alone.

This edition presents a practical path for developing ear, creativity, and understanding through active practice. It contrasts traditional methods with a more open framework, guiding readers toward self-expression while still building solid harmonic skills.

• Understand the philosophy behind a direct teaching method that emphasizes creativity over rote rules


• Explore how to use non-chordal tones, suspensions, and modulations in real music making


• Learn about chord functions, voice leading, and common progressions in practice


• Find classroom and self-study exercises designed to foster spontaneity and musical interpretation

Ideal for readers of music theory and teachers seeking a more engaging, hands‑on approach to harmony.
