Abstract The present volume offers the student of tonal harmony a collection of exercises based upon source materials--the first collection of its kind, the authors believe. Each exercise may be performed as an authentic tonal composition. The collection has been designed to be used as a companion to the textbook, Tonal Harmony in Concept and Practice. It may also be served as an adjunct to other textbooks.
