Harmonic Analysis of Beatles Music - Paperback

by Aaron Krerowicz (Author)

From the simple chords of 'Love Me Do' to the sophisticated modulations of 'The Abbey Road Medley', The Beatles' artistic development can be traced through their unusual and innovative harmonies. Like its volume 1 predecessor, BEATLESTUDY volume 2: Harmonic Analysis of Beatles Music examines its subject in exhaustive detail. It is divided into three parts: The first is a harmonic analysis of all 211 officially recorded and released Beatles songs from 1962-1970; the second part contains a spreadsheet and a concordance documenting each chord used in each song; the third draws statistical conclusions about how The Beatles use harmony.
