With its depth of coverage and international scope this
first-of-its-kind volume contains a comprehensive collection of
information on recordings (LPs, CDs, or Cassettes) in which
percussion instruments are featured as solo instruments or as part
of chamber ensembles, with the best of the literature and
performers worldwide. Percussion Discography includes information
about the composer of a particular work, the composition's title,
the record company that issued the recording, the number of the
recording, and the performer(s) on each recording. For example, at
the entry for Paul Creston's widely known work Concertino for
Marimba four separate recordings are cited. The discographic
listings that deal entirely with music for which a written score is
available as opposed to improvisational music are organized
alphabetically by composer last name and within each composer's
output by the title of the composition. Each compositional entry is
followed by the record company and the catalog number. When
possible, the performer's name is listed at the end of each entry.
Indexes of performers and composition titles facilitate cross
referencing and the directory of recording companies and
distributors that have been mentioned in the discography aids those
who wish to obtain an actual sound recording either through a
record store or directly from the company. Containing some of the
20th century's most remarkable composers, arrangers, and
performers, the volume will be useful to departments of composition
at universities as a source for 20th-century compositional
materials. Conservatory libraries and libraries at universities and
colleges with music programs need the solid, in-depth coverage of
the recorded percussion repertoire presented here. Performers,
music educators, and students will find it an indispensable guide
for expanding their knowledge of percussion literature.
