5.0 out of 5 stars "Cymbalic" Musicianship!, November 28, 1999
By 
Big John (Amherst, Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Art of Playing the Cymbals (Mass Market Paperback)
More than four dacades ago, Dr. William D. Revelli, Director of Bands at the University of Michigan, invited Sam Denov to present a clinic in Ann Arbor. At that time Mr. Denov was percussionist and cymbal specialist with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. As a young band-director-to-be I learned in two short hours that the cymbals were musical instruments to be played and phrased every bit as much as my trumpet. As Director of Bands at the University of Massachusetts, this little book soon became my constant companion. In just a few words and pictures, it provided each of my percussionists exactly what they needed to know to practice intelligently and perform with good taste. This is one of the most important texts for every percussion techniques class for music educators, and recommended for experienced percussion teachers as well. All too few musicians understand and appreciate the musical power of the cymbals. This book will help you become one who does!
