Classical musicians can't even feel rhythm.

That's basically playing and singing at the piano.

has anyone read Tonal Harmony

Actually I just went and looked this up and it is much harder than I was thinking.

t. I've finished it 8 years ago, and it was pure nightmare

what was that old breakbeat song that was like "some dudes syncopates style!"

The Barry Harris harmonic method for guitar. This book helps teach you the Wes Montgomery/joe pass style of chord movement. Anything by Barry Harris is really absolutely brilliant.

What is the best book for a complete beginner to music theory? My primary goal is to be able to better appreciate classical music, and i'd like to be able to learn an instrument too.

unironically

The music came before the theory, firstly.

You either like it or you don't-- don't get hung up over it senpai.
