Alfred Essentials of Music Theory 1-3 Student Version Software at a Glance:
Concise lessons with ear training Alfred's Essentials of Music Theory CD-ROM is based on the best-selling book of the same name. This exciting new course is critically acclaimed throughout the world for its concise lesson sequence, exercises, ear training and unit reviews for complete learning comprehension. Essentials of Music Theory integrates ear training into every lesson plan. The differences between a whole and half step, a major or minor scale, or a major or dominant 7th chord are heard, not just read. To further develop aural skills, the examples are played by acoustic instruments which will help music students become accustomed to hearing more than one type of sound. Special features for young students Each lesson includes narration for both younger students at lower reading levels and students who need help with difficult pronunciations. Also included are animated examples, such as showing how a treble clef is drawn. Notes appearing on the staff are sounded to reinforce pitch recognition. Exercises and scores After each new concept is introduced, Exercises provide students with an opportunity for practical learning reinforcement through interaction with the computer. Because questions are randomized, exercises can be replayed without duplication of material. At the end of each successfully completed exercise, the students hear applause and see the words "Good Work." Ear training examples, which reinforce aural learning, can be replayed and provide immediate feedback. A review at the completion of each unit records the student's score, and in the Student version, the user can see his or her own score to track progress and performance on each concept. Glossary, index and musical examples The addition of a glossary and index offers students complete definitions of all the terms and symbols covered in the lessons, including spoken pronunciations and visual and aural examples. All the terms in the glossary are highlighted and linked in the lessons for quick reference. The software also includes musical examples from symphonies, marches, operas, oratorios, concertos and piano literature from many periods and cultures.
