Definitely a great beginning music theory book for teens through adults. It's a workbook format, and goes from drawing a grand staff through understanding the circle of fifths, Major/minor keys through basic harmony, rhythm and more. It's useful to have a piano around, but it is not required. I was given this book when I took beginning theory in high school, and am now using it to teach theory to my high school-age daughter. It is, however, straight-forward and understandable enough for most people to self-study, like the subtitle says. I had to take beginning theory in my first year of college for credit, and after having already learned basic theory with this book, I couldn't understand why the professor insisted on teaching the subject in such a rote, uninteresting manner. He didn't appreciate my asking him. This book is simple, direct and fun.Get more detail about Practical Theory Complete: A Self-Instruction Music Theory Course.
