Synopsis
"The World of Music" starts by taking a tour of musical instruments from all over the world - from violins and flutes, zithers and sitars to the latest synthesizer technology. It looks at how the instruments are made and played, and the sounds they make. Boxed text highlights key facts and investigates the instruments of the western orchestra. The book also shows how to compose and perform music, how to write it down, and includes projects for making simple musical instruments. This title includes a comprehensive glossary of musical terms, a quick-reference glossary of composers, an index and timelines to set musical events in their historical context.
