"A hands-on approach to mastering the basics in class and online. The Musician's Guide to Fundamentals teaches the basics of music--listening, writing, and performing--using real music, from Bach to the Beatles, Broadway to the Black-Eyed Peas. A unique hands-on approach invites students to listen to music from day one as they learn to interpret musical notation and, eventually, to use it to compose songs of their own."
