About This Item
London: Routledge, 2006. Two volume set. Slight bowing to boards, outer edges of pages are a bit grubby, but otherwise a good clean tight pair of hard-cover books. Originally published in 1992, this is a reprint from 2006, a digital reprint so the quality of the b&w illustrations isn't so good. Fifty-seven articles by various composers, musicologists, performers, sociologists and others on aspects of current (1990s at least) thinking on the study and practise of Music, Sections on People and Music, the Technology of Music, the Structure of Music, and the Interpretation of Music. A heavy pair of books, packaged weight is about 2.5 kilos, so extra postage will be required from buyers outside the UK. 1208pp, some b&w illustrations and pieces of music notation.. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
