The Songwriter's Workshop: Harmony

Part of the Berklee Press series of contemporary tutorials, this comprehensive book brings the art of songwriting up to date. Author Jimmy Kachulis covers all aspects of song construction, beginning with basic grooves and chord colours, through to much more advanced tonalities, pitch progressions and modulations. Each technical discipline is discussed in the context of song-craft, discussing notions of harmonic journeys, building sections and adding colour. Includes a CD packed full of examples to illustrate each lesson.
