Summary of This Method
Tasting Harmony offers a direct and musical way to deepen your understanding of harmony, without prioritizing theoretical analysis. The goal is to develop a refined listening to chords by learning to mentally isolate the sound of each note (root, third, fifth, etc.) while maintaining the overall sensation of the harmonic stack. This dual listening skill is a major asset for improvisation, accompaniment, composition, and transcription, as it helps you make more accurate and expressive note choices.
The method is based on a gourmet analogy: just as we naturally distinguish the flavors of a dish, we can learn to recognize the "emotional flavor" of each chord color. The book provides you with a true "harmonic menu": 81 different sounds played in all 12 keys, to train the ear for transposition and avoid dependence on a single comfort key. Each progression is presented as a "recipe": you store the ingredients (the chord colors) so you can confidently combine them later without approximation.
The audio accompaniment is at the heart of the experience: sing and play along with vocalist Petra van Nuis and pianist Jeremy Kahn. The voice provides a clear melodic reference, ideal for fixing tensions and resolutions, and the chords are announced on the CD to guide your work throughout the tracks. This is a particularly valuable resource for any musician wishing to strengthen chord recognition and enrich their harmonic vocabulary by ear.
