内容简介:
This guide to the orchestra and orchestral life is unique in its breadth of coverage. It combines orchestral history and repertory with a practical bias offering critical thought about the past, present and future of the orchestra. Including topics such as the art of orchestration, score reading, conducting, international orchestras, recording, as well as consideration of what it means to be an orchestral musician, an educator, or an informed listener, it will be of interest to a wide ranging readership of music historians and professional or amateur performers.
