Taking a linear functional approach, Professor Gauldin uses clear explanations and outstanding musical examples to show students how individual chords function in the overall structure of a piece, explaining how both harmonic and melodic forces contribute to the development of musical ideas.

For the Second Edition, Professor Gauldin has undertaken a comprehensive revision that responds directly to the suggestions of instructors.

The new text emphasises fundamental concepts, using a more effective organisation and simpler, more accessible language to bring the most important ideas and information to the foreground.
