Harmony and Voice Leading by Edward Aldwell

A traditional music theory text for music majors in the required two-year long theory course. Based on the Shenkerian approach to music theory, Harmony and Voice Leading, Second Edition, provides a coherent point of view in teaching theory. Well chosen musical excerpts exemplify the theory under discussion, and all units have a generous quantity of exercises, more carefully graded in this edition to progress from easy to difficult. Workbooks provide additional drill and practice. The Second Edition features a one volume format so professors can more easily sequence their course when using the book. The workbooks continue in a two-volume format, each corresponding roughly to the first and second year of study.
Aldwell, Edward: - Edward Aldwell received his bachelor's and master's degrees from The Juilliard School where he studied piano with Adele Marcus.

He has been a member of the Techniques of Music department at Mannes since 1969 and a member of the piano department since 1973.
