About HarMArchive

The goal of HarMArchive is to bridge this gap by promoting (1) original approaches to music theory that prioritise pedagogical applicability, or (2) pedagogical applications of existing research that make complex theories more accessible.

The founders of HarMArchive believe that one of the key values of any theory that explains music is its usefulness in teaching, as this ensures the theory’s relevance within the broader musical culture—essentially, its vitality.

HarMArchive encompasses approaches from all traditional areas of music theory, including ear training, solfeggio, harmony, counterpoint, and form analysis. It also welcomes innovative and unconventional methodologies.
