Western Music, Circle of Fifths and Yikes! the Accordion

By Arleen J. Watkins

How did western music become the way it is? Did it evolve or was it made up? Why is the middle note on the piano a C and not A? Why are there seven notes in a scale and who decided it should have the strange structure it has. What are the I IV V chords and why are they so popular? What is the circle of fifths and why is it important? Why is 440 HZ called A? What's so special about an accordion? These and other questions are answered for John Q Public.

This second edition also includes a method and a number of suggested exercises for learning the circle of fifths. The exercises are designed to improve memory, recognition, and chord flexibility.
