MASTERING INTERVALS
Intervals are the basis of music and mastering intervals is essential!
Learning intervals can be overwhelming. We must decipher between Major and minor, diminished and augmented... consonant and dissonant.... compound... the list goes on! Once you feel like you have a thorough knowledge of how intervals work, and are able to spot them quickly, you will find that everything in music comes easier!
I felt a little unclarity, and sometimes aversiveness over quick identification of intervals. The more I studied and taught different levels of students, I realized all of the tricks to quickly identify, and truly understand all intervals. And with that, I can move forward with confidence in my playing and composing!
In this book I compiled all of my tricks and perspectives, and I promise there is no stone left uncovered. Each chapter has detailed explanations of each interval and way to solve. I find very wordy Music Theory books a little overwhelming. This book is filled with lots of images and excerpts for you to make the connection of the concepts to the score. I recommend having your instrument on hand as you learn!

what people say about
MASTERING KEYS
"The book is good, where most other books overcrowd students with information, this book is presented in layman’s terms for students of all ages. Review the fundamentals in music while having a welcoming approach."
Luis Ramirez
"it's quite interesting and can definitely help students to understand how scales and key signatures are constructed and how they're related in a coherent way. The tricks you used are smart and avoid the concept of just memorizing which is a good thing! I already use those tricks with my students and I can confirm their effectiveness!"
Maurice Ghanem
This is a really well thought out and nicely written guide for beginners to music theory and seasoned musicians alike. The connections, patterns, and memorization tricks help the reader understand and digest the scales better than just relying on circle of fifths/fourths. The explanation of why some scales such as A# do not exist (or are not used) is a neat touch. The relationship between parallel and relative majors/minors is also well explained.
I will be looking forward to a guide into more advanced topics such as chords in relation to the scales they’re in, basic chord progressions, dominants, secondary dominants, etc, if the author chooses to write it!
