Solfege, Ear Training, Rhythm, Dictation, And Music Theory 3rd E

Description: Solfege has become one of the most highly acclaimed resources for the study of ear training in music education today. This revised and expanded third edition includes a multitude of new musical examples and dictations covering the entire continuum of musical developent from classical to modern. For the first time, Solfege also includes definitive audio performances on CD of each of the 51 musical dictations, keyed by track number to the musical notation in the text. As students progress from the simple to the complex by following these carefully interrelated lessons, the results are, according to Mel Powell, "akin to miracle-making."

Review: "Marta Arkossy Ghezzo's well-written and highly-organized volume presents a comprehensive system of Interrelated musical disciplines intended to aid in the acquisition of general musical skills. Useful as a classroom text, it has considerable value as an academic reference work in music because of the number of excellent musical examples that illustrate tonal, chromatic, modal, and atonal systems, and because of an extensive series of graphic symbols frequently encountered in the notation of aleatory music."
