Harmony is one of the most important elements of teaching classical music: it
helps to train hearing, understand the harmonic logic of music, and overview the
basic rules of voice-leading. Many have reservations about it, but roots of this
lie less in the subject itself, and more in its persentation: studying harmony
often becomes a boring series of rigid classroom exercises. This book, whose
primary target are students of music at the secondary level, avoids this mistake
with virtuosity.
