The complete method

The app begins with the book.

A Tonal Path, Volume 1 provides the Core Levels 1–7 curriculum behind TonalPath. Its exercises are meant to be heard first, retained and reproduced from memory, and only then studied on the page.

Use the app for guided listening and immediate practice; use the book to understand the longer path through progressively richer tonal contexts.
