Excerpt from A Complete System of Harmony
The extended and systematized treatment of the Auxiliary Chords is prompted by the conviction that a modification is sorely needed in the prevalent method of harmonic teaching. The vast majority of pupils, leaving Harmony with little or no drill except in the Fundamental Chords, plunge into Counterpoint and Fugue so ill-prepared for the requirements of these advanced studies, that their most laborious efforts produce only painfully unmusical results. At present, the pupil sees little relation between his chords of Harmony and the chord-formations of actual composition, and this is because he has not been taught how to elaborate his fundamental harmonies with auxiliary effects.
The principles of Modulation have been presented in a manner that will, it is hoped, make what is the most subtle feature of composition more intelligible and attractive to the pupil. If in many text-books the true philosophy of the matter has not been misconceived, it has certainly been strangely misrepresented.
Organ-point is generally treated in so superficial a manner, that it will be a surprise to some that it can be reduced to a scientific system which shows it to be amenable to the laws of Harmony, instead of being an authorized license to violate almost all the pre-established requirements of chord progression. Its treatment in this work is the first attempt, so far as the author is aware, to bring under distinct rules this effective species of composition, and to afford to the pupil a method of learning it.
