"Music Theory and Practice" is compatible with current international literature and is tailored to the Greek reality. It is intended for the student or music lover without prior theoretical training, who wishes to gain productive knowledge of the basic terms, symbols, concepts, and functions of music theory. It is the methodical and flexible handbook for music theory classes in all educational institutions: Conservatories, Music Schools, Training Institutes, and Higher Education Institutions.

The series "Music Theory and Practice" consists of 3 volumes:

• The first volume, which covers theory
• The second and third volumes, which contain exercises

In chapters 1, 2 & 3, the fundamental elements that shape musical sound are examined: notes, rhythm, and expression, while chapters 4, 5, and 6 explore the relationships that develop between musical tones: intervals, scales, and chords.

Special mention is made of the rules of music notation, musical instruments are classified, and the scales of Greek traditional music are recorded. The proposed methodology encourages the student to take one step at a time. To begin studying from the example and proceed to the understanding of the concept from the theoretical text.

With the belief that acquired knowledge solidifies through practice, the two volumes of exercises contain numerous simple applications and creative problems, while activities for aural training and composition are suggested.
