I cannot recommend this book highly enough,
it should be required reading for EVERY music
student aspiring to become an orchestral musician;
even if, hoping to remain above the common
herd, so to speak, they only want to become
a conductor! Not just music students though:
concert-goers, music-lovers everywhere, this
is THE book for you! - Arthur Butterworth
