Authors Burstein and Straus combine decades of teaching experience with concise prose, carefully curated musical examples, and a robust, skill-sharpening media program to illuminate the essential concepts of music theory.

The workbook includes hundreds of exercises--more than enough for any one course--allowing instructors the flexibility to construct assignments that meet their students' needs. Every workbook chapter follows a similar organization and features questions for review, chord spelling exercises, Roman numeral and figured bass realizations, composition activities, and music for analysis.
