This review is from: SQUARE ONE - A Western Music Theory Primer (Kindle Edition)

This short, concise description of modern music theory is so complete and so dense that I find myself returning to the text time and time again to restudy difficult concepts, review familiar ones, confirm details, or just to check how far I've advanced in my studies. The prose is light and very easy to read while the technical information is both complete and well presented. Hands-down the best general work on modern music theory I have yet encountered. It is so useful I have it on my Kindle, my phone, and both PCs. I find myself coming back to this text to look up one thing or another almost every single day.

This is a fantastic foundation for aspiring musicians, or self-taught performers who need to fill in gaps in their technical knowledge of music.
