Excerpt from The Tonal Scale in Harmony: Modern Chords Explained, With Musical Examples From the Works of C. Debussy, Richard Strauss and Granvill Bantock

To face the problem candidly and fearlessly is to discover in it most fascinating elements, and to justify much that is still under the. Unspoken ban of the theorists. For much still remains over after all the usual exceptions have been catalogued. It is exactly this quantum that affords the advanced theorist the most happy results when treated with the candour he can bring to bear on it. And now our policy deals with this question specifically and in detail. Broadly stated, we go on the assumption that if the effect is musical. The means used must be right; and that if existing theory condemns the means then the theory is wrong and must be te-cast to classify that means, already justified in practice.

If composers had awaited on theory to justify their methods the greatest works would never have existed. Theory has always lagged behind, timidly far to the rear of practice; only in fact by disregarding the former have the boldest creative spirits achieved epoch-making work. It was common knowledge in his time that Purcell was a blundering experimenter, Bach did not write correct fugue, Beethoven perpetrated ugly progressions, Wagner was a charlatan, Richard Strauss was and remains to many a danger-signal, and Claude Debussy a nightmare.
