'Studying music without going to university: an alternative education' - Composer: Knights; Francis.

BUY HERE: https://bit.ly/3wDKL6L

Instead of increasingly costly traditional academic music degrees in England, this short book suggests an alternative model of private study, both flexible and economical, but sufficiently rigorous and comprehensive to give the student a thorough education in music. Francis Knights is a specialist in Renaissance and Baroque music, and has taught at several of England's leading universities. The method describes a syllabus designed for classical music, but it could easily be adapted for the study of any other style of music, such as jazz or pop.
38 pages.
