Excerpt from A Manual of Harmony
Yielding to oft-repeated and urgent requests for the publication of the method according to which I have for years given instruction in the Theory of Music, I have decided to publish the fruits of my private study and experience in teaching, in the form of three instruction-books. The first of these will be entitled "A Manual of Harmony," to be followed as soon as possible by a second on "Single and Double Counterpoint," and a third on "Canon and Fugue."
An attempt to give an idea of the new features which I have introduced, both as regards the elucidation of the chords and their combinations, and the plan of instruction, would take too long; the matter is fully set forth in the following pages. But I will not neglect to call attention to the additional examples given in the Appendix, which are worked out conformably to rules found in the corresponding chapters. I have learned from practical experience in teaching that it does not suffice, in many cases, to show the pupil how the rules are applied in isolated instances, i.e. out of all connection with some piece of music, however small, which forms an organic whole. Almost any pupil can learn a rule more easily i and thoroughly when its application is clearly illustrated in the compact form of one or more little pieces of music. The manifold and peculiar difficulties besetting instruction in musical theory render this method almost indispensable. We derive what we call our rules from the works of the classic masters; but at the same time we find so great a number of exceptions to the rules, that the latter often seem doubtful to the pupil. Take one instance: The pupil learns at first that the seventh in a chord of the seventh must resolve by a step downward. Presently he discovers that in very many cases it may also progress upward by a step, or be held, or enharmonically changed, or even led down by a skip to tones belonging to other chords. Thus nothing is left him of the rule first laid down but the principle that the seventh is to be led downward by a step, when the following chord and the correct leading of the parts permit of so doing.
