Description
Elementary training for musicians
By Paul Hindemith
Published by Schott
Softcover; 237 pages
This book seeks to provide exercises which – if applied in the right way – must infallibly supply such fundamental theoretical knowledge.
Originally published in the 1940s, Paul Hindemith's remakable textbooks are still the outstanding works of their kind. In contrast to many musical textbooks written by academic musicians, these were produced by a man who could play every instrument of the orchestra, could compose a satisfying piece for almost every kind of ensemble, and who was one of the most stimulating teachers of his day. It is therefore not surprising that nearly forty years later these books should remain essential reading for the student and the professional musician.
