Written by a renowned composer whose works have been performed by major orchestras around the world, The Study of Orchestration is the only text that explores the characteristics of orchestral instruments and shows students how a master composer approaches orchestration. The fourth edition invites students to experience the instruments through online audio and video recordings and now offers more coverage of writing for band.

The Study of Orchestration Workbook features a wide variety of exercises-many new to this edition-for any orchestration class and students of all skill levels. Test Yourself activities test factual information presented in the text, Worksheets offer opportunities to practice orchestrating short passages, and Listen and Score activities challenge students to identify and notate instrumentation aurally.

By systematically examining each interval within the octave and providing a wealth of exercises from all periods, Sight Singing: Pitch, Interval, Rhythm teaches students to perform Western music of any style or harmonic organization.
