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.
