TextLanguage: English Publication details: New York : McGraw-Hill , 1994Edition: Second brief edDescription: xxv , 405 pp. : ill. (some col.) ; 23 cmISBN: 0070348197Subject(s): Music appreciationDDC classification: 780 K12m 1994 Summary: "Music: An Appreciation, Second Brief Edition, is intended for introductory college courses lasting from eight to fifteen weeks. The author's goal has been to write a book that is concise yet clear, accurate, and engaging-useful both for study and in the classroom. This text provides an approach to perceptive listening and an introduction to musical elements, forms and stylistic periods. Its discussions of composers' lives, individual styles, and representative works aim not merely to impart facts but to stimulate readers' curiosity and enthusiasm and heighten their love of music. Many listening outlines are included, to help students concentrate more easily on the musical compositions discussed, and all the compositions with listening outlines are included on the Brief set of three cassettes and three compact discs accompanying the text. The Second Brief Edition is a condensation of Music: An Appreciation, Fifth ed. and retains the general organization and the special features that have been so popular with readers."
