520 Music Theory and Composition: A Practical Approach
presents a pragmatic, accessible approach to music theory
through an emphasis on melody and counterpoint. This focus
explains the why of musical construction more clearly than
the traditional approach of beginning with chords. By
starting with a single melodic line and gradually adding
voices in counterpoint, the book drills part-writing while
simultaneously explaining functionality, first with scale
degrees and then with harmony. The text has students learn
musical techniques and progressively build on their
functions and importance to create their own compositions.
