Brilliant 4 Feb 2009
Format:Paperback
I've been studying music for a while and bought this book as a way of testing how much knowledge I had absorbed. By doing the exercises in the book, I was able to see what I have understod and what gaps there are in my knowledge.

One word of advice would be if you are going to use this series of exercise books, get a copy of The AB Guide to Music Theory, as the exercises correspond to the chapters in this book.

Excellent 7 Feb 2009

Excellent music theory book. Easy to understand. Good explanations for each chapter, then exercises to complete. I would recommend this book to any beginner musician starting to learn theory.

By A Customer
Format:Paperback
As a music student about to do his Grade 5 theory exam, I would say this is a very helpful aid in studying for it. This book, along with the other theory workbooks for grades 1,2,3 and 4 take in everything that could come up in the exam. The books are very thorough and detailed, with exercises on everything from key signatures, chords and their placement at cadential points to composition, all of which are examined. At the end of the book are some exercises which are laid out in the test format for extra practice. From a students point of view, their detailed exercises are very tedious, but they have to be done to prepare adequately for the test. A good investment for those doing the ABRSM Grade 5 theory test.
