Advanced Harmonic Concepts - (A Non-Functional Approach) Wayne J. Naus

Inspired by the music of Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, The Yellowjackets and others, this text is a clear, concise study of contemporary harmonic progressions that are created and derived from the melody rather than from the key. A clear, concise, and beautifully conceived approach to expanding the harmonic possibilities for today's composer. (Russell Ferrante - The Yellowjackets) A way to forge a personal creative process which provides structure in a harmonic style that has few boundaries. (Joe Mulholland - Chairman Harmony Department, Berklee College of Music.)
