The course is intended for Composition and Conducting students.

It starts from discussing the logic of Tonal Functional Harmony exposed from its basic experiential and sensorial roots. Taking into account the miscellaneous and many times casual knowledge which the students already have from their former musical education, the course aims to clarify and explain the properties and characteristics of Tonal Functional Harmony and to drive its "rules of behavior" from the core of the basic perceptions pointed above.
