Score Reading of Orchestral Music (paperback)

A comprehensive guide to score reading of orchestral music for conductors and all musicians, music readers and students. It presents methods on synthesising a score, creating a sounding image of the score in the mind, reading in clefs, decoding single and multiple transpositions, making piano reductions. Each of the topics is complemented with a wide range of practice examples from 18th - 20th century orchestral repertoire.
