Simon Basher's science titles-The Periodic Table, Physics, Biology and Astronomy-have been a hit with readers of all ages. Now comes the book that puts his fresh spin on music. With its lively, creative approach, this is a unique and highly memorably one-stop guide to the building blocks of music. Meet Rhythm and Pitch, who know how to hold a tune; Time and Signature, who love to keep control; clever Chord, who works patterns to great effect; Brass, the powerful loudmouth of the instrument types; and Classical, Pop and Electronic from a crew of sweet sound characters. Plus tones of detail on what makes music work.
