This is exactly the book you need This book is exactly what it says it is, a practical guide to vernacular harmony. If you play music written after 1850, you need this book. The arrangements of some of the song examples are worth the price of the book. But there is a lot of good information here. If you are studying music theory and are frustrated by your textbook in your efforts to learn about the music you care about, get this book. It is terrific.. "Almost indispensable, and out of print" according to Peter P. Morgan. "Making Changes" is a vast compilation of harmonic sequences illustrated by examples of progressively complex and modern harmonization of simple melodies. For me, it is a life-time manual and a precious resource.Peter Morgan Lanark Ontario
