Description
The digital edition of all books may be viewed on our website before purchase. 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.
