The Compleat Conductor

ISBN: 9780195126617 出版年：1997 页码：584 Oxford University Press

In this controversial study, contemporary composer and conductor Gunther Schuller puts forth his own principles of conducting, and then analyzes in detail several classical masterpieces, comparing the composers' original notation to the manner in which modern conductors interpret them. Showing ways in which current orchestra and conducting standards can be radically improved, this book is an indictment of contemporary musical trends and an incisive record of the dialogue between composition and performance.
