Practical Guide to Music Theory

The proposed «Practical Guide to Music Theory» by G. Fridkin is intended for students of music schools. All topics of the music theory course in this manual are presented according to the following principle: first, a brief theoretical formulation is given, followed by a musical notation table or diagram, and each topic concludes with sample assignments. The order of presentation of topics fully corresponds to the established practice in music schools. As a supplement to this edition, a dictionary with brief explanations of musical terms encountered in the text of this manual is attached.
