A Composer's Insight, Volume 3: Thoughts, Analysis and Commentary on Contemporary Masterpieces for Wind Band Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I cannot recall any other branch of music in which composers have seized the opportunity of in depth discussion of their music, their artistic life and beliefs, and have offered every facet of their art for public consumption. Salzman has developed a brilliant game plan, has assembled a fine team of writers, and the results are three exemplary books on the art of composition which should be in every musician's library.
