           Explorations in Music, by Joanne Haroutounian 
                    Publisher Comments: A comprehensive music theory curriculum that extends from primary to   advanced levels and uses ear training, analysis, and composition to   "creatively" teach concepts of music theory. 
Here's how it works...           
          -  Students explore and discover new concepts.
 
              -  Each concept is used in a variety of ways including opportunities for creativity.
 
              -  Creative experimentation encourages students to compose.
 
              -  Listening examples   are interwoven throughout the book and presented on cassette tape or CD   recording. Students make the "eye and ear" connections with the score.
 
              -  CDs or Cassette tapes are provided to allow listening to be done outside of lesson time -- at home or in theory classes.
 
              -  Explore sections allow students to analyze the musical score with "eye and ear" and work creatively with musical ideas.
 
              -  Explore Bonus sections offer the curious student a challenge, providing motivation to work beyond what is already presented.
 
              -  Beyond the Page sections offer opportunities to link the student's current repertoire directly to the concepts developed in Explorations In Music.
 
              -  A Teacher's Guide is   correlated to each student book, providing many extra creative   activities and assignments. The complete student page appears with   hand-written answers to help parents, teachers or students easily   correct theory pages.
