SynopsisFor instructors who include basic musicianship skills in the fundamentals course, the (recorded) ear-training drills and keyboard studies, together with a variety of sight-singing excerpts will provide ample material. Fundamentals of Music, Fourth Edition, presents a complete introduction to music fundamentals and basic musicianship. In this popular text/CD package, the author employs a fresh, student-centered style to introduce and explain traditional topics such as notation, meter, scales, triads, and chords. The text informs, guides, and encourages students with basic theoretical information that is balanced with helpful suggestions for study, copious exercise material, introductory aural skills training, and self-tests with answers. The revised compact disc is more fully integrated as a text supplement and features seventy easily accessible tracks of professional performances designed to help students associate the sounds of music with their symbols.
