Based on the Associated Board theory syllabus, Practice in Music Theory 8 is organised into 5 divisions- Advanced Harmonic Vocabulary, Trio Sonata Textures, Pianoforte Writing, Melodic Composition, Score Reading and Analysis. Each section contains the topics which provide the indispensable background to understanding the concepts found in music itself. Theoretical considerations apart, specific works are analysed, illustrations are abundant, music examples and interesting exercises are plentiful throughout the text.
