Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Children's Harmony, Vol. 1: Treating of Scales, Keys, Intervals, Simple Chords, and Chord-Connections, and the Training of the Perceptive Powers, Adapted to the Needs of Young Piano-Students and for the First Studies in Harmony
The need of a work on the Theory of Music which should be adapted to the requirements of young students is universally acknowledged. It is attempted, in the present volume, to supply sufficient Theory for the large number of Piano students who are unable to take an extended course in Harmony, and to supply a first book in Harmony, which shall be simple and thorough, as far as it goes, without being childish. An important feature of the work is that the pupil is led to develop for himself examples of any subject which may be under consideration, to learn by doing; and an extremely large number of exercises leads to facility in the use of harmonic materials.
