The Instrumental Score Reading Pre- And Post-Test / Compact Disc

Ideal for undergraduate and graduate students, and even experienced conductors, these are challenging, sequential programs that really teach. Here's how: Performances of a diverse selection of instrumental music have been recorded with errors built in. Students listen to the performance and evaluate the tempo, balance, tone quality, and intonation (among other characteristics) of the performance. They must consider stylistic as well as harmonic relationships.
