As I read through this book, it started as an "I knew that, I knew that..." experience. But as the pages turned, even the most knowledgeable musician would start to say, "well I knew that too, but I wasnÕt aware of where that came from" or "now IÕve never thought of it that way before". Soon I was saying, "now I never knew that" and "thereÕs an inversion IÕve never encountered" and "so thatÕs how that works!"
Note by note, scale by scale, mode by mode and chord by chord Pete Swann uncovers, demystifies and unclouds the reasons why music works the way it does. Its laid out in a clear and logical manner. Believe me, thereÕs enough knowledge between the covers of this book to keep you busy for the rest of this lifetime and halfway through the next one.
