JuliusGroove Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hi Guys, Just wondering if anybody has anybody has any books they can recommend that discuss harmony? Not looking for "study books" as such, more something to read on the train that talks about harmony, if I'm making any sense at all.. Any books that people benefited from that aren't direct educational books such as the Mark Levine Theory book would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

ambient Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 There are a few here about harmony. Mostly these have been on various reading lists at university. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliusGroove Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Thanks man, If you get time I'd love if you could recommend maybe 3/5 that you particularly enjoyed? Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKenrick Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Not explicitly about harmony, but a well-written book that isn't really a conventional 'study method' is 'Primacy of The Ear' by Ran Blake, quite different from most books on ear training (I wrote about it in more depth here). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Woodcock Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I'm a fan of Bert Ligon's books, I prefer his Jazz Theory Resources over the Mark Levine book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
