Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Designed primarily as a text for beginning orchestration courses, but includes material for advanced study and may serve as a reference. As in the earlier editions, the emphasis is on the practical fundamentals of orchestration. The Sixth Edition has been expanded and revised to reflect new developments in instruments and orchestral practice, and a new listening compact disc has been added that contains selected examples of orchestration.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Learning Tool   February 24, 2007
My class required the textbook, but the teacher never used the book. However, I learned a lot by reading the book myself, because the teacher never explained the fine details of arranging instrument parts.

This book gets two thumbs up.

Thorough and masterful work. Suitable for the beginners as well as for the advanced.


3 out of 5 stars Good book... but expensive   January 9, 2007
 3 out of 8 found this review helpful

It has a nice amount of information, but the price could be half what is costs, considering its size. It is useful, but I see no reason why it costs so much. Half the price should be the right amount, this is the reason it only gets three stars. The problem is: technical books are too expensive, if you check other books in the same subject (music, orchestration, composition, harmony) you will see for yourself.
