Ad musicam practicam introductio : non modo praecepta, sed exempla quoque ad usum puerorum accommodata, quam brevissime continens
Ad musicam practicam introductio is a 1550 music theory textbook by Heinrich Faber, printed in Nuremberg by Johann Montani and Ulrich Neuber for boys learning practical music. Its pictures are typeset diagrams of musical notation: brace-grouped lists of solmization syllables, note values, and modal names set in dense black-letter type on cream paper, offering a designer a model for systematic tabular layouts, bracket structures, and early modern typographic hierarchy.
