Joyce Conley holds Ph.D.s in musicology and clinical psychology and has established careers in both fields. She is especially keen on studying the relationship between music and psychology when it comes to learning musical skills.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Catch-uppers, April 17, 2000
By 
Diego Matamoros (Simsbury, Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Harmonic Progressions (Norton Programmed Texts in Music Theory) (Paperback)
C&C's second book in their programmed theory text series certainly lives up to expectations. It provides a strong emphasis on practical application of the rules of voice leading, allowing one to use them directly in composition, the techniques of analysis are neither cumbersome nor simplistic. For those of us who have some catch-up to play with our more advanced musical peers, this book will have a novice spouting progressions like f#: I-VII6-I6-IV-II-V-V7-I in no time flat.

Music Matt "mattintosh" (Baltimore, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Harmonic Progressions (Norton Programmed Texts in Music Theory) (Paperback)
A great way to learn the basics of voice leading and harmonic progressions. Works very well with the other Norton Programed texts. The layout of the book is what is most appealing. You learn new concepts and test these concepts as an on-going process. The book helps build solid voice-leading foundations, and reiterates importan concepts. I highly reccommend it!
