Description
The AB Guide To Music Theory is intended to help people learning music to understand how music is written down, what the various signs and symbols denote, and what is meant by the common technical words used by musicians. Arising out of this, it provides an introduction to the basic elements in harmony and musical structure.
In the main, this book deals with the subjects of the Associated Board’s theory syllabus for Grades 1-5. However, for the sake of continuity, the information has not been broken up to correspond with individual grades.
The AB Guide to Music Theory, Part 2:
- Provides an introduction to the basic elements in harmony and musical structure
- Separate chapters on voices, string instruments, woodwind and brass instruments, percussions and keyboard instruments, and instruments in combination
- Covers non-harmony notes, tonal harmony and chromatic chords, and musical structure
