The subject of music theory is taught at many places: music schools, conservatories, continuing-education seminars for laymen... Up to now, however, there has been no didactically perfected yet thoroughly comprehensive concept. Wieland Ziegenrücker, whose pedagogical classic "ABC Musik Allgemeine Musiklehre" has confirmed his expertise with the material, has coordinated his "Praktische Musiklehre" with the syllabi of the "Verband deutscher Musikschulen" (VdM) and tested it extensively in the classroom. Ziegenrücker places great importance on aural training and consistently incorporates it into his method from the very start. This is why the three books of the "Praktische Musiklehre" each contain a CD. Books 2 and 3 take the music-theory method all the way to simple song harmonizations, which corresponds to an intermediate level in the VdM's syllabus.

Whoever has successfully worked his way through the first books of Wieland Ziegenrücker's "Praktische Musiklehre" (BV 311/312) and is motivated to continue on the path of enlightenment, can now add the finishing touches to his knowledge: In the rhythm section of this method, the author tackles irregularities such as triplets and changes of meter; in the harmony section, we find cadences in Major and Minor as well as the simple harmonization of melodies and for a lively and varied learning experience beat, blues and swing. While the author consistently expands his basic principle, ear training retains its fundamental value. Consequently, this third volume also contains an enclosed CD to allow the user to hear the exercises. Ziegenrücker introduces and illustrates all new items with many music examples, exercises and drills.
