Music Will Never Sound the Same Again

No longer will music theory be an intimidating notion! Whether you're new to music and want to know the fundamentals to succeed, or whether you already play, sing and write and need a refresher on the basics, multi-instrumentalist Adrian Valia has you covered. From melody and rhythm all the way to the most essential elements of harmony, you'll learn--or relearn!--everything you need to know in order to understand and make profound and beautiful tunes.

Using the same colorful graphics and illustrations made popular in his beloved "Music Visually Explained" series on TikTok, Adrian breaks down concepts like polyrhythm, scales, power chords and the puzzling Circle of Fifths into easily digestible forms. What's more, tools that spin and move on the page demonstrate melody and rhythm in real-time for a fun, interactive flair, as do quizzes and QR codes that lead to video demonstrations. With this book in hand, you'll soon be on your way to making the songs you've always dreamed of.
