The Science of Music: A Practical Look at Music Theory

Music theory done as a science. No more gatekeeping. It is an upgrade and contains unique views and a more accurate representation of reality for music based on some interesting findings. This is a better system and more accurate to our reality. Centuries of books labeled as music theory have mostly taught music history, not theory. They teach the outcomes for classical and jazz composers and name them hundreds of things instead. This book teaches the cause instead of a bunch of effects. There is very little standard notation in this book because that has nothing to do with music theory itself. This is for actual music creating and understanding. It isn't music history about classical or jazz composers or outdated notation. It only contains useful information.

Allen Van Wert, renowned musician and educator, challenges traditional music theory and offers a fresh perspective that will transform your understanding of music.

Here's some of why this book is unique:

1. It explains why there should have never been a minor scale in music - a groundbreaking revelation!
2. Contains every possible sound combination and chord option for unlimited creativity as a quick and efficient reference section.
3. Simplifies complex concepts into easy-to-understand steps, perfect for beginners and experienced musicians alike.
4. Includes a revolutionary explanation of modes, fully understand them for the first time.

There are worksheet assignments and a discord server link in case you have questions.

Great for ADHD learners. Short chapters and each starts off by telling you why you need to learn this and how it fits in. This is something that helps certain brains to focus and learn best.

The reference section is something you will use every day as a musician. This is the NEW Music Theory!
