4 out of 5 stars A Great Buy !   March 18, 2008
This takes most of the information in the "much thicker and formal" Music Theory books and condenses to something manageable, easy to understand, easy to read AND easy to learn. A good book for any musician to own !


5 out of 5 stars Painless Music Theory   December 30, 2007
An interesting, logical, and understandable approach to Music Theory. Filled with enough examples, insights, and relationships to round out your unterstanding.


5 out of 5 stars well written, easy to understand for those interested   December 6, 2007
Read many other theory books and this is the best one so far. I am a guitar player and has really connected a lot of concepts for me.

Its an ok book but I wish it had more worksheet type stuff in it. Music theory isn't hard you just have to work a whole lot of it like math practice makes perfect. The book is easy to read and clear. I feel that I am finally starting to understand music now, it's a good buy.


5 out of 5 stars Good explanation of music theory concepts   May 20, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I recommend this for my students (especially adult students) or parents of students who are interested in the whys of music theory. When I was learning music, teachers just told you to memorize -- no one took the time to explain why. This book explains a lot of whys. Although some of the jokes are not funny and pictures are ... goofy, it's a pretty good, straight forward book on theory. The thing about music theory is understanding concepts and being able to use them are two different things. If you want to understand concepts, this is a good book. Remember, though, you might need a pencil and paper (theory exercise book) to make the concepts real to you. I always have my students use a workbook. This may be an excellent supplemental book for students who want an overview and/or have a more detailed explanation of theory concepts.
