I picked up the book "Musician's guide to theory and analysis" due to the recommendation in m3g0wnz's thread in the sidebar, but it didn't come with the CDs illustrating the examples (I don't know whether it should or not).
In keeping with its stripped-down nature, the Concise Introduction focuses almost exclusively on teaching four-part chorale writing. There is very little discussion of non-chorale settings (in fact, there is no discussion of the concept of texture anywhere in the book). Almost every chapter exhibits the same organization: it presents a harmony, shows it in several musical examples and in a four-part setting, and provides students with opportunities to use it in figured bass and chorale melody harmonization. The book rarely delves into aspects of melodies other than chorale melodies, motivic analysis, performance and analysis, rhythm, meter, or other non-harmonic parameters. While perfect for an intensive course in harmony and voice-leading, the Concise Introduction might not work well in a broader music theory course that covers more than just part-writing and Roman numeral analysis.
The Musician's Guide to Theory and Analysis is a complete package of theory and aural skills resources that covers every topic commonly taught in the undergraduate sequence. The package can be mixed and matched for every classroom, and with Norton's new Know It? Show It! online pedagogy, students can watch video tutorials as they read the text, access formative online quizzes, and tackle workbook assignments in print or online. In its third edition, The Musician's Guide retains the same student-friendly prose and emphasis on real music that has made it popular with professors and students alike.
The primary reason I recommend starting with Light Notes though is that they walk you through, step-by-step, the very start of learning music theory which begins with the definition of sound. Moreover, they guide you through the rest of their course material in a structured way. After that, you can head over to the next resource on my list and start going through their lessons.
Part II (summer term) will focus in more detail on the ways in which these broader theoretical, methodological, and historical considerations can be usefully applied to reading literature and other media. Using examples from a variety of primary texts, it introduces analytical tools and interpretive approaches such as genre theory, narratology, and film analysis.
