Covers: accents, alla breves and afterbeats; keys, quarter notes and quintuplets; parts, plops and pitch bends; transposing, triplets and tremolos; and much more. "Without a doubt, the Music on Paper Tipbook is one I'd highly recommend to ALL songwriters." (American Songwriter) "Very well organized and easy to read; a perfect supplement and quick reference guide to any high school music program or basic college music theory course."
