Bibliography

This is a bibliography of textbooks, companions, practice materials, journal articles, etc., used for teaching various music theory subjects at Higher Music Education Institutions in Europe. This innovative tool is created by the users themselves – teachers and students – who can submit specific items used in their institutions. The online and dynamic format of this bibliography ensures its unlimited availability to the whole community of music theory.

The bibliography allows a multi-faceted search for items that are not only useful in everyday practice but can constitute a database of resources for music theory disciplines, specific categories, etc.

Guidelines for bibliography submissions are included in the submission form (via the button below).
