Instructors and readers have responded favorably (many times enthusiastically) to the selection of basic information, the wide coverage of types and styles of music, the logic of a chronological approach, the clear and down-to-earth writing style, the 'post-hole' technique of concentrating on a limited number of works that can serve as examples of types of music, the relating of music to the larger culture, the listening guides that help listeners to perceive works of music better, the enrichment boxes, and the supplementary record album and study guide and scores booklet."
