THE 30 KEYS MADE SIMPLE
A practical music theory guide for singers, instrumentalists, choir members, worship leaders, songwriters and music students.
The 30 Keys Made Simple is a practical teaching guide designed to remove the confusion surrounding major and minor keys.
Instead of simply asking musicians to memorize key signatures, this book helps you understand why the keys are written the way they are, how major and minor keys relate to one another, and how to recognize and apply them in real musical situations.
Inside, readers are introduced to the 30 commonly taught major and minor key spellings, including their sharps, flats and relationships. The book uses simple explanations, tables, examples and visual guides to make music theory easier to understand and remember.
