| Abstract | This book is designed as a guide to the organization and teaching of music theory on all educational levels. Part one is devoted to the subject matter of theory as transmitted to the student. Part two covers organization and expected outcomes. The author states that "the purpose of this book is to clarify the premises and the procedures for the development of musicianship through an understanding of musical structures. It is based upon a belief that understanding is essential to true musicianship and that it is best developed through an organized study of music itself." |
