This
valuable edition provides
comprehensive information
on selected wind band
works that were inspired
by and incorporate hymns,
chorales and spirituals.
It includes music from
all performance levels,
historical periods and
diverse styles. In
addition to a general
analysis of each piece -
examining the composer's
treatment of original
source material - the
authors present an
overview of the hymns,
chorales and spirituals
that focuses on
historical background,
notated music and lyrics.
An excellent resource for
conductors, students and
enthusiasts. Timothy and
Phyllis Paul's research
into the works included
in this book must now be
an important influence on
the score study,
rehearsal, and
performance of each
composer's creation. -
Allan McMurray, Professor
of Conducting, Director
of Bands, University of
Colorado.
