With the addition of a Supplement containing over 200 new entries, Maurice Hinson now brings together more than 3,000 works for piano and orchestra from the 1700s to the present. Each entry presents such details as the key, opus number, editions available, performance time, level of difficulty, style, and special qualities of the work. Most of the new material describes contemporary compositions, but Hinson also annotates new editions of traditional works and provides an updated Bibliography. "Music for Piano and Orchestra" is a valuable resource for young or less-experienced players and their teachers as well as for virtuoso pianists.

A Book For Serious Musicians,
By
This review is from: Music for Piano and Orchestra, Enlarged Edition: An Annotated Guide (Paperback)
As with the author's other works (Guide To The Pianist's Repertoire, etc.) this book is comprehensive and probably the best one of its kind. Not only are the mainstays of the concerto repitoire included, but also virtually every concerted work for piano and orchestra that has been published. The amount of literature in this genre is huge, and the author tackles it all with information galore. Recommended!
