Designed for a one-semester musical fundamentals course, From Sound to Symbol: Fundamentals of Music clearly covers all essential topics, but with a unique, "sound-to-symbol" approach that explores concepts through the sound of music before explaining how symbols are used to represent that sound. The text's most innovative feature is an early and continuous focus on active music-making. The authors incorporate numerous examples and activities for developing musicianship skills at progressive levels of difficulty; marginal icons direct students to exercises in music theory, sight reading melodies and rhythms, improvisation and composition, ensemble singing, and keyboard performance. Each text is packaged with a fold-out, laminated keyboard; an audio CD including all the focus melodies in the text; and a technology CD-ROM containing tutorials for chapter review, theory exercise drills, and dictation exercises.
