Hi @veloau

DO you have a subscription to the online theory course?

The e-book is a free download as part of that subscription.
They are no longer being updated, all is on the website now.

In the FAQ Justin has written:

My two old eBooks are included
Both my classic ebooks Practical Music Theory and Chord Construction Guide are included in your subscription and you can download them both (they used to sell for over $27!) at the start of Grade 3! This new improved website version is way better, but the ebooks have been very popular for over 15 years and are not less effective, just superseded! :slight_smile:

Cheers
Richard

No worries - what is being updated is the online theory course. That is where Justin is putting in time and effort.

Hi

I know this is an old post and things have been updated, but for what it may still mean now, I do not see the
Practical Music Theory and Chord Construction Guide at the beginning of Grade 3.
I’m assuming Justin means Practical Music Theory > Grade 3 > Module 3 (the only module under Grade 3)

I have the PMT book paper copy, but I do not see the CCG anywhere in the Practical Music Theory course. I could certainly be missing it, or it is elsewhere on the website/PMT course.

I wouldn’t mind having the CCG book, as I just finished the older PMT paper book. I also have a subscription to the website/ebook-based PMT full course.

Just do a search on the website for the Chord Construction Guide and it will come up.

Hi

Yes, thank you, indeed it is :slight_smile:
I did search for it, but I think I searched here in the forum and not on the website :roll_eyes:

For what it’s worth, the 2 books do not seem to be at the beginning of Grade 3 of the Music Theory course.

When I signed up for the PMT when it first came out I down loaded both ebooks from the first page that came up. There was a welcome page that had the basic lay out ot the course and the download links.

The 2 books aren’t part of the course the PMT course replaces the books.

Thanks again.
Yes, I know the books are not part of the course.
I’ve worked through some of the PMT online course a while back.

Then I saw that I also had a printed copy of the old PMT, so I figured that I’d work through it as a refresher. Then, I saw the info in it about the CCG book, which I didn’t have. It will be good to go through that, too.

I don’t see the PDFs for the books in the first grade/module of the PMT course, but it’s all a moot point since the PMT course, ebooks and quizzes and new app update and replace the older documents.
I can also print out the new PMT workbooks/quizzes. I prefer working off printed docs.
