This comprehensive but concise guide for the student of
orchestration is also an excellent book of reference for the
practicing musician. Each instrument is considered within its
respective group and helpful details are given on compass,
technique, and timbre. The author takes many passages written for
keyboard instruments and shows how they may be scored for a variety
of combinations, thereby showing in the clearest possible manner
the principles underlying effective orchestration. Exercises at the
end of each chapter lead the student, by gradual stages, from
simpler scoring for strings to the more complex art of writing for
full orchestra. For this new edition Dr. Jacob has revised the text
to reflect recent developments, particularly in wind and percussion
instruments writing.
