Music Composition Book

Recently, I bought a new book from Kinokuniya at Ngee Ann City:

"The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music Composition (The Complete Idiot's Guide)"
by Michael Miller

I feel that the book is very good. It helps me to understand how to apply the Music Theory which I have learnt. But it assumes that you already know your music theory, so it does not cover them, but rather explain how these theories are applied to music composition. It even introduce different musical instruments and explains how to combine them to form an orchestra. I suppose when you can successfully compose a piece (classical or pop song), you would have master a certain degree of music theory.

Keep the creativity flowing...
