Harmony Notes: Book 2, is a natural follow on from Harmony Notes: Book 1. The vocabulary is expanded to encompass dissonant decoration, modulation, secondary 7ths and an exploration of Classical chromatic harmony. Clear uncomplicated explanations of each topic accompanied by aural examples are central to the conception and design. At every stage the aim is to foster a musical understanding and encourage a holistic approach - emphasising the necessary link between sound and symbol.
The material is explored throughout seventeen chapters and includes exercises to assist with the learning, absorption and application of the topic at hand.
'Lightbulb' moments flag essential grammatical points, while 'checklist' and 'summary' boxes provide a useful revision tool. All audio examples are indicated by interactive 'headphone' logos.
Although Harmony Notes deals primarily with vocal writing, the scope of the book expands to include simple analysis exploring the application of the harmony in a variety of other textures.
A creative and musical approach is always encouraged associating the sound with the symbol at every stage of the learning.
