This textbook takes a linear, functional approach to tonal music in the common-practice era, explaining how both harmonic and melodic forces contribute to the development of musical structures. Coverage includes the basic elements of music; functional diatonic harmony, modulations, and sequences; the common procedures of chromatic harmony; and advanced chromatic techniques. The second edition contains a broader range of musical examples than the first, featuring more world music, popular music, jazz, and music by women.
