Contemporary Theory Primer

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Contemporary Theory Primer provides an enjoyable and practical introduction to music theory for the novice musician from age 5 and up. The accelerated learning concepts in the book help students gain a thorough grounding in 'general interval' recognition and writing plus an understanding of various time signatures and rhythms. Colour coding is employed to help students write and recognise the music signpost notes and clefs while Margaret Brandman's simplified interval system allows students to grasp the concepts easily. The book includes plenty of practical rhythmic exercises even extending to 5/4 and 7/4 time. Graphic boxes representing the duration of the sound are placed under the notes. Once the student has coloured in the boxes, the exercises can easily be clapped or played. On completion of this primer, students will be ready to progress to Contemporary Theory Workbook Book 1.
