Harmony Modernized

TRAMA

The Science of Harmony is the grammar of music. For any one who occupies himself with music, a knowledge of the science of har mony is just as indispensable, as a knowledge of grammar is to one who wishes to acquire mo're than a superficial acquaintance with a language. The circumstance, that the harmony-exercises are for very simple pedagogical reasons not merely analytic, but, for the most part, necessarily synthetic, easily leads the pupil to regard them as prepara tory work in composition; this they are, in point of fact, in no other sense than (let us say) orthographical and grammatical exercises are a preparation for writing poetry; no less elementary, no less pensable.
