Berlioz's Orchestration Treatise is a classic textbook which has
been used as a guide to orchestration and as a source book for the
understanding both of Berlioz's music and of orchestral practice in
the nineteenth century. This was the first English translation of
Berlioz's complete text since 1856, and it is accompanied
throughout by Hugh Macdonald's extensive and authoritative
commentary on the instruments of Berlioz's time and on his own
orchestral practice, as revealed in his scores. It also includes
extracts from Berlioz's writings on instruments in his Memoirs and
in his many articles for the Parisian press. The Treatise has been
highly valued both for its technical information about instruments
but also for its poetic and visionary approach to the art of
instrumentation. Berlioz was not only one of the great
orchestrators of the nineteenth century, he was also the author
with the clearest understanding of the art.
