5.0 out of 5 stars Quick reference for busy musicians, April 1, 2000
This review is from: Hemidemisemiquavers--and Other Such Things: A Concise Guide to Music Notation (Spiral-bound)
This quick-reference guide provides helpful answers to the many rules of music notation that are often variable or those situations that create doubt about proper principles of modern usage. The book covers notational rules that are absolute and those that are flexible. Users of computerized music typesetting software will find solutions to problems that the computer may set incorrectly or leave as variable. Even experienced notators will find quick references to those elements that are used infrequently and have escaped the memory. Above all, this concise reference book provides immediate answers without offering readers more than they really want to know.

2.0 out of 5 stars Concise, but..., June 17, 2009
This review is from: Hemidemisemiquavers--and Other Such Things: A Concise Guide to Music Notation (Spiral-bound)
This book is a little to concise. It only gives the bare bones basics. So if you're a novice, it's a good handbook. If not, it's not worth the money, in particular if you do computerised notation.
