Music and Its Instruments Book
Robert Donington has presented a book that approaches music itself by way of the instruments that are its working tools. He not only discusses the different sounds these instruments make but also how they make them, and how and why such sounds may be affecting us as they do in music. The first part of the book sets out the basic facts and principles of acoustics. The second part of the book describes and puts into context all the main instruments of music familiar in the West, including some of those newly recovered from the past. The traditional families of strings, wind and percussion are detailed, and also that recent and untraditional addition, electronic techniquies for producing music. The volume is fully illustrated with photographs and with pictures of early instruments.Read More
