The book is precise and clear in its wording meaning and many examples. The examples are the reason this book is so large plus the fact that every effort is made to make the font large so that every note, symbol and chord is clear and exactly where it needs to be. Also each topic is developed in a one-at-a-time manner so that students of harmony need not think about more than one topic at a time - a valuable attribute of a complex subject such as harmony. The examples on motive, phrase, and sequence are well done. Particularly remarkable are the choices of composer and work that Seigmeister has used throughout. Coverage is from intervals up until Modulation. Modulation is the beginning subject in the second volume. Although this book has much to recommend it, I would not want to use it for a course since it doesn't have problems for the student to work. Nevertheless the book would make a great supplement to any course that covers Harmony in the common practice period.
