About the Book

This is the second of a three-volume series. The first volume teaches the twelve major scales and the treble and bass clefs, in addition to keyboard basics and an introduction to rhythm, intervals, and chords. If you are at the junior high level or above, and already have a good knowledge of these basics and are ready for the next level, then this book is for you. This volume teaches the twelve minor scales and goes into further detail in ties coverage of rhythm, intervals, and chords. It lays the foundation for learning harmony, which is the key focus of the volume which follows.

Features:

• Keyboard skills are integrated into every lesson, enabling you to hear, feel, and "see" the music as you learn.
• Frequent reviews provide ample opportunities to steadily strengthen your knowledge of every element.
• Numerous diagrams allow you to easily visualize each new concept, taking the mystery out of learning music theory!
• In the hands-on approach, you will have many changes to practice what you learn in each lesson as it is being taught with the drills and exercises that follow.

Music Theory Step by Step: Level One and Music Theory Step by Step: Level Three are also available from Trafford Publishing.
