A Theory of Harmony Founded on the Tempered Scale: With Questions and Exercises for the Use of Students is a music theory book written by John Stainer and originally published in 1871. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of harmony, with a particular focus on the tempered scale. The tempered scale is a musical scale in which the octave is divided into twelve equal parts, which is the basis for most Western music.Stainer's book includes detailed explanations of the principles of harmony, including chords, progressions, and modulation. The book also includes numerous exercises and questions designed to help students practice and apply the concepts they have learned. The exercises range from simple drills to more complex musical examples, and are designed to build a solid foundation in the fundamentals of music theory.Throughout the book, Stainer emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying principles of harmony, rather than simply memorizing rules or formulas. He also includes numerous musical examples from classical composers such as Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven, as well as examples from contemporary music.Overall, A Theory of Harmony Founded on the Tempered Scale is a comprehensive and practical guide to the study of music theory, and is an essential resource for any student of music, whether they are a beginner or an advanced musician.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
