Synopses & Reviews
Harmonization at the Piano contains a thorough study of harmony and styles of piano playing through the use of music literature of the common practice period, as well as folk and popular songs. An attempt has been made to show the similarity of chord progressions in all the music presented. This text may be used as a college text for keyboard harmony and functional piano as well as a supplementary text for classes in written harmony and music reading.
