More than just music...

This amply-illustrated and information-packed volume is one of those rare reference books that delivers far more than its simple title would seem to promise. In its examination of musical instruments from ancient to modern times, this multicultural exploration of mankind's musical heritage delves deep into the essence of the creative process itself. Topics include an historical overview of the evolution of musical instrumentation, detailed discussions of the instruments, music education, instrument-making, and the social and cultural context of musical instruments. In fewer than 200 easy-to-read pages, the author uses the history of music and musical instruments to explore in surprising depth the similarities and differences among our planet's many diverse cultures
