Be sure you purchase the 5th EDITION
Barron's AP Theory or search at Amazon for "Barron's AP Music Theory"
To prepare for the rigor of the AP Music Theory curriculum, it is important that you have a strong foundation in music fundamentals.
Summer Work Assignment:
Go to the Gmajormusic Fundamentals Workbook online
You are responsible for knowing the material on pages 1-27 (Chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4 up through section 4.4)
I recommend skimming material that you already know and printing and completing any pages that you do not know. You do NOT need to turn these in.
Answers begin on p. 193 so that you can check your understanding.
There is an index of terms on page 251.
