註釋This is an invaluable reference book of musical information from A to Zither, geared to the needs of beginning students of music. There are millions of young people who are taking lessons on the piano, violin, various other instruments, or in voice, as well as those who are attending courses in music appreciation. This book is designed to make available to these students an easily usable source of information on musical terms, concepts, composers, etc. Emphasis is placed on composers whose works young people most often study, particularly contemporary composers of music for youthful learners. At the same time, the composers' accomplishments in their early years are stressed. Throughout the text appear musical examples, drawings and photographs which illustrate the wealth of information that is given with simplicity and clarity, about such subjects as history, theory, acoustics, instruments, etc. This is an essential reference work for those learning music who do not require the most sophisticated and expensive encyclopedias.
