In this, the latest of methods for the study of Harmony, the author, Carl E. Gardner, presents a system of training which, both in purpose and plan, provides, what up to the present has frequently been hinted at, but never practically accomplished—a "direct" method for the teaching of music composition.
In the writing of the work the student's practical development has been uppermost in the author's mind and to this end he has provided not a mere treatise on musical grammar, along conventional, hackneyed lines, but a new method which will allow and encourage the student to compose as he advances and develops.

OPINION OF THE PRESS
"His work—numbering 161 small pages—is of necessity simply an abbreviated affair. It is soundly done, the work of a man who knows his subject through and through, and it is capitally written." MUSICAL AMERICA.
