An exciting new title for younger readers from Basher, who gave us a cool new spin on science

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Simon Basher's science titles—The Periodic Table, Physics, Biology and Astronomy—have been a hit with readers of all ages. Now comes the book that puts his fresh spin on music.

With its lively, creative approach, this is a unique and highly memorable one-stop guide to the building blocks of music.

Meet Rhythm and Pitch, who know how to hold a tune; Time and Signature, who love to keep control; clever Chord, who works patterns to great effect; Brass, the powerful loudmouth of the instrument types; and Classical, Pop and Electronic from a crew of sweet sound characters. Plus, tones of detail on what makes music work.
