Supremely excellent book that teaches the reader how to play the scales, arpeggios and cadences. It demonstrates the major key, relative minor key and key signatures and which specific keys are sharp or flat for each major key. This book is a marvel because it spells out much in a chart format, then the Circle of 5ths and many other illustrations and notature.

..as famed Robert Schumann, composer, said: "You must diligently practice all scales".

The spiral book covers: tetra chords, building Major scales, Triads, the second inversion of triads, the primary triads in major keys, the V7 chord, scale degrees, arpeggios, building minor chords, then, more on the 3rds, 5ths and more on triads. the primary triads in minor keys the diminished 7th chord and offers a guide to fingering. It progresses IN PART 2 to Major scales in sharp keys followed by the same for flat keys in PART3. Then,.. Part 4 covers the minor scales in sharp keys. Part 5 covers the minor scales in flat keys.

Part 6 covers the Chromatic Scales and followed by "Enrichment options" in PART 7.... that is the menu. However, it must be noted the illustrations are clear and concise and come in, easy to understand formats and supplemented by graphs and fingering illustrations on the piano to make easy the understanding each student needs. I simply cannot overstate the importance of this book and bow to the compliments of world famed composers like Schumann, Czerny, Rubinstein, Rachmaninoff, Paderewski and Van Cliburn .. all of whom stressed the utter importance of learning each aspect of this book. You simply cannot go wrong with the purchase of this book. I wish you success and this book will give it to you.... Jesse jr.

Love the book but delivery was not so great. The book was bent it in half and placed it in my mailbox. Suggest better packaging or a different delivery service.
