FOREWORD
- This book has been designed as a study manual and exercise book for cadet
musicians wishing to take a music qualification. - Training centres and units can use this document to distinguish the different
standards of music theory for levels Basic, I, II, III, IV, and V. - This manual only contains the subject matter required by Technical Standards for
Cadet Musicians. The use of certain other publications on music theory would be
complementary and could help with the learning process. For worthwhile
suggestions consult reference manuals. - A cadet who wishes to reach a particular level is strongly encouraged to read the
relevant chapter and practise the exercises it contains. However, reading alone
cannot entirely replace actual practice or a period of music instruction.
Consequently, you are advised to seek the assistance of someone experienced in
this field. - Even though this publication has been specially designed for cadets, the instructor
should use it as a reference guide to prepare music training and to keep track of
his cadets’ musical development. - Yo u are advised to photocopy certain chapters and exercises in order to keep your
own copy in good condition and thus be able to use it repeatedly over a long
period. - If you have any questions concerning the content of this manual, consult D Cdts 3.
