Harmony, Counterpoint, Partimento by Job Ijzerman
A new method of music theory education for undergraduate music students, Harmony, Counterpoint, Partimento is grounded in schema theory and partimento, and takes an integrated, hands-on approach to the teaching of harmony and counterpoint in today's classrooms and studios.
IJzerman has developed a historically informed approach to eighteenth- and nineteenth-century harmony and counterpoint, one which takes advantage of the old keyboard exercises known as partimentiThe benefits of those lessons are well known, but until now no one had put together a text that adapted them for the modern classroom. IJzerman covers the era from Bach through Brahms, provides a teacher's manual, and an extensive workbook. If you have bright students, this is the text they would want if they had the choice. * Robert O. Gjerdingen, Professor Emeritus at The School of Music, Northwestern University *
Drawing on recent research on partimento and eighteenth-century schemata, IJzerman's Harmony, Counterpoint, Partimento is unlike any other textbook on the market. Its emphasis on the bass line as the driver of harmonic motion is especially praiseworthy. * Roger Graybill, New England Conservatory *
