EVEN after all that Hector Berlioz and other great authorities have written about orchestration, there is still room for more good works upon that subject. Provided that they tell us something new, or at least help the student by new formulations of accepted truths. The little volume whose title stands at the head of this notice is by the well-known teacher, Florence G. Fidler, who has in simple terms put into hardly more than a hundred pages the lessons of twenty years' experience. The author feels that the most pressing need in music teaching at the present time is “the training of students as listeners." The chief language of the music of to-day is that of the orchestra. And the best, if not the only way of mastering the art (more properly the science) of orchestration is, not to experiment with original compositions, but to arrange for orchestra existing works composed for piano purposes. The resources of the orchestra grow age by age. We have gone a long way since the days of Haydn—a much longer way since Lulli and the earlier Florentines devised their works. New treatises like this one, therefore, really do not call for an excuse, especially when they are serious efforts to assist beginners. The author counsels them not to devote themselves alone to orchestration, but to give harmony its fit place in their studies side by side with instrumental study. And, lastly, students are exhorted to embrace every opportunity offered them of hearing works by great symphonic masters. Among piano compositions singled out as better suited than most others for resetting in orchestral form are Mendelssohn's “Lieder ohne Worte," Grieg's “Humoresken” and the “Serenade” of Rachmaninoff. And, as a working rule, it is assumed that Nature's lessons may be taken as good guides in choosing instruments of expression. For big things one should have big voices, for little things, high voices. All parts, it is explained, should be of interest in themselves, so as to give the players pleasure and not pain. An accomplished master can, of course, make light of rules. But the beginner will do well to be more modest. Advanced students will find much of genuine technical importance in this handbook which, though so short and unassuming, sums up carefully a little world of knowledge. As examples take the passages with regard to tone color, and those in which the author states the various ways of giving due relief to melody. Quite half the work deals with the uses, characters and values of the instruments of modern orchestras—the strings, the wind and the percussion instruments. There are simple rules for making scores, for building up effects in befitting ways, and for accustoming the student to dissociate the strict limitations of the piano from the fine freedom of the grander orchestra. Here is one counsel, which will bear re-reading often by the aspiring orchestrator, and which means much, although contained in a few sentences. “Try always to convey the spirit of the music itself. If a piece is graceful and flowing, write the orchestral parts in long, slurred, smooth passages; if it is jerky and lively, use short notes and pizzicato. The music is to be translated from one language to another, far richer in expression; and the best translations are those which keep the spirit rather than the letter of the original." —Weekly Review, Volume 5

Excerpt from A Handbook of Orchestration No detailed description of the instruments has been given as it is obvious that unless the student knows them already by sight and by sound he cannot hope to achieve much. Tone colouring, like picture colouring, cannot be taught in words, and any endeavour to describe sounds generally results in absurdity or incoher ence The ear can only be trained by constant listening to an orchestra, first of all concentra ting on single instruments and on groups, and then studying the more complex sounds of their various combinations. The student must not be satisfied until he can hear mentally every score he reads or writes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Orchestration: A Practical Handbook Teaching experience over a period of many years at all levels provided the data for this text. It is because this experience showed conclusively the regularity of common errors dealing essentially with purely technical aspects of structural problems that equal proportions of textures and timbres have been incorporated as basic text materials.

In "Professional Orchestration: A Practical Handbook - From Piano to Strings", conductor/composer Joseph Wagner, Founder of the Boston Civic Symphony and former Composer-in-Residence at Pepperdine University, teaches you applied orchestration by demonstrating 30 different techniques within "The Reference Chart of Keyboard Idioms" for transcribing piano parts and piano devices to the string section. Techniques covered include Broken Intervals, Broken Chords, Melodic Lines and Figurations, Implied Bass Parts, Single Note Interval and Chord Repetitions, 2-3 Part Homophonic Music, Spacing Problems, Contrast Problems, Voice Leading, Obbligato, Antiphonal Effects, Tremolo Types, and Dance Forms. Designed for either personal or classroom use. Included in "From Piano to Strings" is the complete piano solo and separate string ensemble adaption of Grieg's "Holberg Suite" demonstrating how these techniques are applied and work in real practice. The Appendix contains a bonus String Ensemble template for you to copy and do your studies with and the "Chart of String Unisons" to help you work out common string combinations. Available for separate purchase is the "Workbook" with audio files that gives you dozens of homework examples to orchestrate. The "Workbook" is used with all three handbooks in the series - starting with "From Piano to Strings", then "From Piano to Woodwinds", and finally "From Piano to Orchestra". "From Piano to Strings" builds both orchestration and composition skills for live performance, but also develops MIDI mockup and recording skills. Companion titles for this series available for separate purchase are Alexander Publishing's "Professional Orchestration Volume 1: Solo Instruments and Instrumentation Notes" and "Volume 2A: Orchestrating the Melody Within the String Section".

Excerpt from A Handbook of Orchestration The paramount need in music teaching at the present time is the training of students as listeners. In order to listen intelligently one must understand the language that is spoken. The principal language of the music of to-day is that of the Orchestra. An intimate knowledge of the grammar of orchestration is, then, the necessary technical equipment of the intelligent listener. The best way to attain this knowledge is by writing orchestral scores, which should in no case be original composition, for one cannot learn the grammar of a language and write poetry in it simultaneously. Twenty years experience of teaching orchestration on these lines by orchestrating piano-music already in existence, without reference to other branches of musical theory - has convinced me that good listeners can be produced in this way; and that all students, particularly singers and pianists, can be aided thereby towards sound musicianship. Incidentally, if a student is at the same time working through the ordinary academic routine of musical theory which results in composition, by the time he arrives at that goal he has already at hand the technical knowledge of the Orchestra which enables him to transcribe his ideas directly to the Full Score.
