This groundbreaking textbook on intonation was written in 1962 and is in its 4th revision. This latest edition (11th printing) is printed and published with permission of the author. Mr. Leuba's book offers the student, amateur and professional a detailed study of the "Science" of Intonation. The standard method of teaching intonation by the intuitive method is discussed and shown to be flawed. This book first addresses the physical and acoustic phenomena relating to the problems of Intonation and Tuning and then makes suggestions concerning the use of "mechanical aids" in training the musician's perception, and some practical applications.

Prelude No. 2, "Blue Melody", is a sad song also with a blues feel using lots of sevenths and a major/minor duality. Prelude No. 3, "Spanish Prelude" features lots of synocopations and a battle between major & minor with the major winning out in the end. This work will make a fantastic conclusion to your recital.
