  • Essentials of Orchestration

    • Excellent brief descriptions of every orchestral instrument, with frequency ranges, idiosyncrasies, and scoring recommendations.

    Nicely printed in large format. A great reference book for the musician who doesn't fully comprehend ranges, qualities, or techniques of playing all the instruments of the orchestra. It includes some jazz, pop, folk, and world instruments as well. If you want to write for an orchestra, and you don't play every instrument in existence, this is the book for you.

    Provides everything from ranges to scoring tips. Perfect for figuring out pesky clarinet transpositions, what different instruments sound like in different parts of their range, and much much more. I will use this book until the day I die.

    I started taking music lessons and writing music in retirement. I don't have any formal training and this book provides basic information for a new composer such as myself.
