I clicked on this to see if by any chance you included Toby Rush's "Music Theory for Musicians and Normal People." I see it's recommended in the "Where To Start" section, but then you say to intensify a fear for classical music theory... and I'm not sure what you are implying there.

I remember coming across that document many years ago when messing around with music composition. The funny thing is, I went to college with Toby Rush and worked with him at the college library. He was an incredible source of information and I'd pick his brain trying to understand various concepts.

I was several pages into his guide before I made the connection that I knew the author.

Thank you! I messed the wording, and now I thought twice on what's best to say at that bullet, and I decided to rephrase it completely:

4. Skim through [Toby W. Rush's overview](https://tobyrush.com/theorypages/pdf/en-us/the-whole-enchila...) to see how many moving parts does a classical theory have

His guide is great!


Much better. Thanks for clarifying that, and thanks for what you have done!
