Mr. Leslie Susi, second semester music theory teacher, instructs class on simple chords in bass and treble clef. Start at the very beginning . . . start with the five clean lines and four fat spaces, the black notes, the clefs, chords, and rests . . . start with these and buildg expand and construct a har- mony, a melody, a song. The course of music theory appeals to the student who is not satisfied with simply repeating the creations of other artists. It is designed for the student who wants to speak his own words and hum his own tune. His Whys are answered as new ideas are introduced. New words, a new tune, new concepts that vibrate and hum within his mind. He is released . . . able to explore a new realm of creation.
