Description

SKU G9544

Knowing the Score is a comprehensive approach to all aspects of music score reading and analysis that provides a sequential system for efficient and complete score study. Central to this book are more than 300 pages of music scores for band, orchestra, and choir from a wide range of sources.

This book is the culmination of Dr. Robert Quebbeman's twenty years of teaching score reading at the university level. No single resource has ever contained such a systematic guide to score reading and analysis.

Knowing the Score is divided into two parts. Part 1 covers score study steps, transposition and instrumentation, form graphs and phrasal analysis, music forms in both instrumental and vocal areas, and contemporary scores. Part 2 visually enhances this resource with printed pages from the scores of 84 works from the broad spectrum of classical literature.

Of particular importance to this resource are several distinctive features:
• An emphasis on scores in multiple genres
• Inclusion of complex and atypical examples
• Detailed instructions on marking the score
• Interpretation
• Preparing musicals and operas
• Memorizing the score

This resource is designed for graduate- or undergraduate-level courses, or for any conductors looking to improve their own score study skills. Knowing the Score is truly the first of its kind.
