You can't be the author of a music book and actually mean that. I
apologize for my tone, but please don't profess such things -- someone
might believe you!

I've had 100s of start-over students come to me who could not identify
what key the music is in, and then they wonder why it takes them so
long to learn a piece and can't memorize it. Understanding how scales
are generated based on the interval of a fifth, and how they sonically
and structurally relate to each other is essential to being a
musician.

David, you would benefit greatly from what you would learn by reading
my book's
