Fundamentals of Piano Theory
This superb series provides piano students with an organized course for the study of music theory. Each volume contains essential rudiments of theory particularly relevant to the study of piano music. The appropriately graded levels present concepts in a clear, systematic manner to ensure steady and thorough progress. The Preparatory Level begins at the elementary to late elementary level with clearly outlined, progressive activities involving note values; the staff; note naming; time signature and rhythm; sharps, flats, and naturals; half steps and whole steps; 5-finger patterns and triads; tetrachords and major scales; key signatures; and signs and terms. Each level progresses gradually and leads to Level Ten, covering such advanced topics as seventh chords; secondary dominants; modulation; cadences; Neapolitan sixth and augmented sixth chords; fugue; sonata-allegro form; tonality in the twentieth century; and more. Highly recommended.
