Endorsements
"A classic in its field beautifully presented."
—Jonathan Sternberg, Temple University
"I think this book is tops in its area— very detailed, yet arranged for easy accessibility! I am extremely impressed with it and will recommend/use it. It is the best orchestration book I’ve seen! Bravo!"
—Diane Earle, Kentucky Weslyan College
"This is, without question, one of the most thorough and comprehensive treatments of the subject that has been published. It was a pleasure to find extensive discussion of instruments which are not standard members of the modern orchestra, as well as examples of orchestration which reach far beyond the scope of most other books on orchestration, right up to the cutting edge of today’s experimentation. This book is an indespensable resource for all composers, and I will most certainly make use of it in my teaching."
—Ramon Zupko, Western Michigan University
"I now recommend this book over any other to my composition students in search of solutions for instrumentation and ochestration problems. It is comprehensive, clear, and well-supported with examples. Mr. Adler is to be congratulated."
—David T. Cimpidis, Mannes College
