Riassunto

""The Technique Of The Modern Orchestra: A Manual Of Practical Instrumentation"" is a comprehensive guide to orchestration and instrumentation, written by French composer and organist Charles-Marie Widor in 1906. The book is intended for composers, conductors, and music students who wish to learn the technical aspects of orchestration and the proper use of various instruments in a modern orchestra. The book is divided into two parts. The first part discusses the principles of orchestration, including the range, timbre, and character of different instruments, as well as the techniques of scoring for different sections of the orchestra. The second part is a practical guide to the orchestration of specific musical forms, such as symphonies, concertos, and operas. Throughout the book, Widor provides numerous examples from the works of classical composers, as well as his own compositions, to illustrate his points. He also includes detailed diagrams and tables to help readers understand the technical aspects of orchestration. ""The Technique Of The Modern Orchestra"" is considered a classic text on orchestration and has been widely used by composers and music students for over a century. Its clear and concise explanations make it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the technical aspects of orchestral music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
