4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Second Edition of A Companion to the Concerto,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Guide to the Concerto (Paperback)
I ordered both Layton's "A Companion to the Concerto" and his "A Guide to the Concerto" at the same time. They are the same book in slightly different editions. The guide is the slightly expanded newer version.
Both books offer excellent reference material on many concertos from pre-baroque to current works. As expected, they are heavily weighted toward the works more familiar to the concert going and recording enthusiasts. The discussions are detailed, with frequent musical examples. While I don't regret purchasing both (the Companion is a hardcover edition), I recommend opting for the Guide. |
