5.0 out of 5 stars
A great book by the master American composer Aaron Copland,
By M. A. Scott "Rock and Classical music fan" (Kansas, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: What to Listen for in Music (Paperback)
I read this for the first time back in about 1989 and it taught me the basics of listening to classical music because that was when I first started buying classical cds. I thought that I had lost the book but found it in the back of my closet a few weeks ago. I think I've forgotten about half of what I learned going through it the first time so I think I'm going to have to give it a second read. A lot of it is on the art of music in general, so if you're not into classical music, it's still a very good book to read. When you learn what the basic terms in the classical music genre are, it makes listening to classical music a lot more rewarding to a newbie like I was back then. This is definitely one of the greater manuals about classical music you will find and definitely one of Aaron Copland's finest achievements in his long illustrious career.
