This collection of essays on the interpretation of twenty-two unusual concert pieces was assembled partly with a view to more imaginative program planning. There are many composers who may have written only one or two masterpieces, yet failed to leave a worthy oeuvre; these sadly are often forgotten or overlooked when conductors assemble programs. This compilation spans a little over a hundred years from the 19th and 20th centuries and all the works are colorful and attractive. Once again Norman Del Mar brings his expertise in handling the orchestra to a wide variety of styles. His infectious enthusiasm and broad knowledge make him an invaluable guide to the aspiring conductor, the expert, and the music-loving listener. The essays range from Russia to Spain, from Schoenberg to Kodaly, from Wolf to Poulenc, with such established favorites as the overture to La Forza del Destino with its unexpected tricky moments and the Four Sea Interludes and Passacaglia from Peter Grimes for which Del Mar offers suggestions from Britten himself, with whom he worked worked for many years.

The last in a series of books on conducting the standard orchestral repertoire. -- This apparently haphazard collection of essays on the interpretation of more unusual concert pieces was chosen partly with a view to more imaginative programme planning, the other requirement being that each piece is by a composer whose output would never make up a whole book. There are many composers who wrote one, or two, masterpieces, yet failed to leave a worthy oeuvre; these are often forgotten when building programmes, yet they enhance so many when brought to mind. This compilation spans a little over a hundred years from the 19th and 20th centuries and all are colourful and attractive. Once again Norman Del Mar brings us his expertise in handling the orchestra over a wide variety of styles and complicated instrumentation, his compulsive enthusiasm and broad knowledge being an invaluable guide to both the aspiring conductor, the expert, and the music-loving listener alike. The twenty-two essays range from Russia to Spain, from Schönberg to Kodály, from Wolf to Poulenc, with such firm favourites as La Forza del Destino revealing unexpected tricky moments and the Four Sea Interludes and Passacaglia from Peter Grimes full of hints and advice straight from Britten himself, for Norman Del Mar worked for many years with him at Aldeburgh and on tour with the English Opera Group." -- Contents: Mili Balakirev Tamara; Georges Bizet Symphony in C; Ernest Bloch Schelomo; Benjamin Britten Four Sea Interludes and Passacaglia from Peter Grimes; Emmanuel Chabrier España - Rhapsodie; Ernest Chausson Poème, for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 25; Ernst von Dohnányi Variations on a Children's Song, Op. 25; Paul Dukas L'Apprenti sorcier - Scherzo; Manuel de Falla Three Dances from The Three-Cornered Hat; Manuel de Falla Nights in the Gardens of Spain; Zoltán Kodály Dances of Galanta; Zoltán Kodály Summer Evening; Franz Liszt Mephisto Waltz No. 1; Modest Mussorgsky A Night on the Bare Mountain; Mussorgsky/Ravel Pictures from an Exhibition; Francis Poulenc Ballet Suite: Les Biches; Albert Roussel Le Festin de l'araignée: Fragments Symphoniques, Op. 17; Arnold Schönberg Five Orchestral Pieces, Op. 16; Arnold Schönberg Kammersymphonie No.1, Op. 9, for Fifteen Solo Instruments; Giuseppe Verdi Overture La Forza del destino; Richard Wagner Eine Faust-Ouvertüre; Hugo Wolf Italian Serenade, for Small Orchestra; Index.
