In Learn to Identify Harmony by Ear, you’ll find a complete and practical method to transcribe the harmonic structure of any song—step by step and without needing to rely on your instrument at first. The book starts with essential theory, such as how keys work, how chords function within a key, and how to recognize their emotional character. You'll explore seventh chords, secondary dominants, modal interchange, and modulation techniques with clarity and purpose.

From there, you'll dive into rhythm and song structure, learning to identify time signatures, spot section changes, and map out a full harmonic skeleton.

The core of the book is found in Chapter 9, where a full transcription method is applied in real time to an actual song. You’ll be guided through the process from the very first listen to writing out the complete progression by ear—helping you connect theory with practice in a structured and intuitive way.

With 42 pages of concise explanations, visual references, and guided practice, this book is not just about understanding harmony—it's about learning how to hear it, recognize it, and write it down with confidence.
