| General note | "Most treatises on orchestration endeavor to familiarize the young musician with the specific characteristics of each instrument in the orchestra...but...practical experience does not exist until the young composer actually hears his first orchestral score [performed]. It is this gap between theoretical and practical knowledge...that we endeavor to fill in the present essay." p. 1, 2. |
