Relaxed and accessible in style, this authoritative guide is the first symphony handbook for nonmusicians. The book begins with a general introduction to the symphony and short pieces on the orchestra and musical styles. Mordden goes on to describe, chronologically, over 700 piecesfrom Vivaldi to twentiethcentury composers. Further aids to the reader include two lists of repertory builders and a glossary of musical terms.'Easy and pleasurable to read...a genuinely useful guide for the music lover who has not had a musical education but loves concert music.'John Barkham Reviews
