Synopsis
Improve your grasp of the subtleties of music with Richter's Manual of Harmony: A Practical Guide to Its Study by E.F. Richter.
Richter's Manual of Harmony has been translated from German by John P. Morgan. The content of the book is derived from the course Richter taught about harmony at the Music Conservatory of Leipzig. The manual is intended as a companion to be used by students pursuing formal education in music, and is divided into three sections. The first part of the book introduces the fundamental harmonies and the chords derived from them. Part two discusses accidental chord formations and tones foreign to the harmony. The final chapter of the book examines practical applications of the harmonies and the pure harmonic structure. Throughout the work, Richter suggests exercises for the reader to put into practice the theories taught in the manual.
Richter's Manual of Harmony remains one of the great works written on the topic of harmony. Richter was a brilliant musician and an insightful teacher, and the English translation of his work does not lose the power or clarity of his words. The strength of the work is in Richter's explanations of sometimes complex theories, as the author is able to expertly convey advanced principles in simple terms.
Richter's Manual of Harmony: A Practical Guide to Its Study is the perfect instructional for advanced students of music. The work is illuminating and informative, and consistently reinforces the lessons taught. Any student of music interested in honing their technical skills would be wise to add this title to their library.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive and practical system for understanding harmony in music. It delves into the foundations of musical theory, examining the principles of intervals, triads, and seventh chords. The author emphasizes the importance of clear and concise explanations, seeking to equip students with the tools they need to both analyze and create music. The book's approach is firmly rooted in the tradition of classical music theory, and it acknowledges the ongoing debate surrounding the scientific basis of musical rules. The author acknowledges the complexities of the subject but ultimately focuses on practical application, encouraging the student to learn through direct experience and observation. This practical approach is further emphasized through the inclusion of numerous exercises designed to reinforce the theoretical concepts presented throughout. The book ultimately champions the idea that a thorough understanding of musical theory is essential for artistic development. It challenges the notion that creativity can exist in the absence of technical skill and instead argues that a solid foundation in musical fundamentals is the key to unlocking true artistic expression. This book provides a valuable resource for aspiring musicians seeking to navigate the complexities of harmony and develop their musical potential.
