A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Harmony Made Practical: A Comprehensive Treatise

The "theory of music" is necessarily so abstruse, that teachers and writers cannot succeed in awakening an interest in it, unless they discard many of the finical traditions which have served to veil, and not to reveal, natural forms; which have had a tendency to so exaggerate means as to make the end almost unattainable.

I have endeavored, in this little volume, to present essentials with directness. I class as essentials everything which can contribute to the development of practical musicians.
