The Musician's Field Guide to Music Theory

Making music is all about organizing sound in a way that makes us feel something, conveys a mood, or expresses thought. Music theory helps provide clarity, guidance, and inspiration to writing and performing music. Developing an understanding of how to work with sound as a medium - the same way a potter uses clay - is important for any musician. This book is intended for those musicians who are learning an instrument or have learned an instrument and want to improve their understanding of how music fits together. A helpful guide and useful reference book complete with notebook pages designed for music students to take notes and keep tracks of assignments, this book is the perfect complement for teachers to use with their students or for self-learners to work through.
