This slim volume, organized in alphabetical order, is a very useful reference for the musician who needs to quickly check how to correct something relatively simple. Not sure where to place a dynamic marking or how to notate a repeat? This book will tell you. On the other hand, if you are a more advanced musician writing a symphony, you don’t need it. They call it “Essentials” for a reason.

This book is meant for those wanting to learn how to write out music notation correctly.I first checked it out from the library and had to buy it for my shelf.It’s organized and simple to learn from.My transcriptions are now looking more professional thanks to this book!🤘😷🤘

The large version of the smaller handbook. Great for the same reasons, but perhaps less useful as a quick reference because of its size.

Non posso fare altro che un copia-incolla dalla mia recensione per il libro più piccoletto. Ma una cosa mi rende perplesso; pare che questo libro costi circa 11 Euro. Io ho scritto che questa versione ne costava 22 circa. Ho sbagliato io o cosa?"Naturalmente non è all'altezza di "Behind bars", ma è comunque molto completo e vale del tutto la spesa. Si tratta di un manualino piccolo e maneggevole, che costa meno di 6 Euro. ISBN-13: 978-0882847306 (non ho trovato l'ASIN). Attenti! su Amazon non ne trovate le dimensioni! È largo 10,5 cm e alto 14 cm. Lo potreste portare quindi, se volete, ovunque.Ne è uscita una versione più recente (ASIN: B00L6KFGJI), che differisce da questa perché ha le pagine più grandi, è alto 30 cm e largo 23 cm, e costa molto di più, 22 Euro. Non mi pare che ci siano comunque state variazioni nel contenuto.Ah, siate certi delle dimensioni: le ho misurate io sulle copie in mio possesso."

It's a good, short book on the rules of music notation. It's not exhaustive, but a good beginning guide. It's also a bit too segmented by the use of alphabetical listings by short discussions of each topic. So, for example, a topic such as accidentals is scattered in different places: with single notes, in chords, use of courtesy accidentals, etc. I would prefer to see it all in one place, i.e. an entire chapter on accidentals. Doing it like that would require some overlapping of material from different chapters, but I can't hurt music students to be able to find the same information in any of several different places.But, on the whole, a good beginning book and an excellent value for the price.
