Book 1 & 2 of Paul Hindemith's a Concentrated Course in Traditonal Harmony -Emphasis on Exercises and a Minimum of Rules & Exercises for Advanced Students (Revised Second Edition)

Paul Hindemith's remarkable textbooks are still the outstanding works of their kind. In contrast to many musical textbooks written by academic musicians, these were produced by a man who could play every instrument of the orchestra, could compose a satisfying piece for almost any kind of ensemble, and who was one of the most stimulating teachers of his day. It is therefore not surprising that nearly forty years later these books should remain essential reading for the student and the professional musician.
