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
interactive exercises that allow 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. The
hardback TEXTBOOK is also paired with the corresponding paperback
WORKBOOK in a discounted PACKAGE (9780815371731).
