Theory for Today's Musician, Third Edition, recasts the scope of
the traditional music theory course to meet the demands of the
professional music world, in a style that speaks directly and
engagingly to today's music student. It uses classical, folk,
popular, and jazz repertoires with clear explanations that link
music theory to musical applications. The authors help prepare
students by not only exploring how music theory works in art music,
but how it functions within modern music, and why this knowledge
will help them become better composers, music teachers, performers,
and recording engineers. This broadly comprehensive text merges
traditional topics such as part-writing and harmony (diatonic,
chromatic, neo-tonal and atonal), with less traditional topics such
as counterpoint and musical process, and includes the
non-traditional topics of popular music songwriting, jazz harmony
and the blues. The accompanying companion website provides an
interactive Theory Trainer tutorial that allows students to
practice foundational theory skills. Written by experienced
authors, both active classroom teachers for many years, Theory for
Today's Musician is the complete and ideal theory text to enable
today's student to accomplish their musical goals tomorrow. Updated
and corrected throughout, the Third Edition includes: Expanded
coverage of atonality and serialism, now separated into two
chapters Broadened treatment of cadences, including examples from
popular music Substantially rewritten chapter on songwriting
Interactive features of the text simplified to two types, "Concept
Checks" and "Review and Reinforcement," for greater ease of use New
and updated musical examples added throughout Charts,
illustrations, and musical examples revised for increased clarity
Audio of musical examples now provided through the companion
website The accompanying Workbook offers exercises and assignments
to accompany each chapter in the book. A companion website houses
online tutorials with drills of basic concepts, as well as audio.
