Sir Frederick Arthur Gore Ouseley (1825 1889), English church
musician, composer, Professor of Music at Oxford and Precentor of
Hereford Cathedral, is best remembered for the foundation of St
Michael's College, Tenbury, and its extensive music library in
1856. Here he was concerned to maintain the tradition of sung daily
offices and to provide a model for others to follow. This book,
first published in 1868, is the first of Ouseley's three works on
music theory, and offers a structured approach to the subject,
beginning with an explanation of musical notation and the harmonic
series, then moving through the rules of harmony from tonic and
dominant triads, to chord inversions, augmentation, diminution,
modulation, the use of suspensions, pivot notes and cadence
sequences. Of interest to music students and historians, the book
contains exercises for the student and an appendix giving a number
of musical examples.
