 Satisfaction In This Book August 2, 2005

This self-study coarse is one of the best tools I'm ever seen in music. It's great for ameteurs and also those readers who have been involved with music for years. I've been singing and writing song lyrics for 15 years. You'd think I'd know most everything, but that's just not the case. This book has helped me in writiting music composition, to recognize key signatures in an instant, read sheet music with greater ease. Other areas in my music have also been greatly improved in addition to learning things I've never heard of before. This book is a great choice for anyone who wants to learn anything about music.
Excellent book January 30, 2005

This book is very good for an introduction to music theory. It is well suit for self study. All the answers are in the back. The book only covers the essential topics of music theory. It fits perfectly for me because I want to learn music only as a hobby but need enough theory to know what the other book/people are talking about. It includes 2 CDs for ear-training.
THE BEST!! July 31, 2008

This book is the best way to learn theory no matter if you are 6 or 60. You can learn at your own pace doing one or several of the exercises at a time. It covers the basics clear up to stuff you probably don't even want to know. I am a music teacher and I learned things that I had forgotten and other things that I never knew. I would recommend this course of study to anyone interested in learning about music theory.

An excellent book--clearly written, with lots of study/practice exercises to help in memorizing the material. The ear training is also very helpful in understanding concepts that might otherwise not be clear.
Really great! June 1, 2009
