The school music conductor

the long version

"This book is written particularly for use in teacher-training institutions which offer a course in conducting for majors in Music Education and also, for individual use by beginning conductors in the field. It is designed to serve as a study guide rather than as a self-sufficient, exhaustive treatise. The book is aimed specifically at the problems most frequently encountered by the conductor of high school choral and instrumental organizations but the fundamental procedures are applicable to all levels of instruction." -- (page i, preface).
