The Architecture of Music Volume 1.0 is the most complete combined chord, scale, and mode encyclopedia for the guitar and piano ever created, an effort almost two decades in the making. The chord encyclopedia includes more than 300 chords, and depicts every possible way to play them on the guitar and piano. The scale and mode encyclopedia contains 5 scales (33 modes) in every key, as well as complete lists of chords included in the chord encyclopedia that you are able to play with every note, in every scale, in every key.
The book's two new innovative diagrams, the interval diagram and linear circle of fifths, expose the architecture behind chords, scales, and modes, and explain basic music theory without the use of standard musical notation. The information contained within is meant to be used as a comprehensive reference guide and tool for exploring and analyzing chords, scales, and modes through musical improvisation and composition.
