Beskrivelse
A Catalog of Wind Repertoire Before the Twentieth Century for One to Five Players is the eleventh volume in Dr. David Whitwell's ground breaking thirteen-volume History and Literature of the Wind Band and Wind Ensemble series. The History and Literature of the Wind Band and Wind Ensemble has had its focus on the repertoire for ensembles of six or more players. But there is much more to the story of the early professional wind player. His performance of solo repertoire and his participation in smaller wind ensembles reflect the use of such music in smaller palace rooms and in more intimate church performances in particular. It was to offer some documentation for these other categories of wind repertoire that Dr. Whitwell has included this volume. Whitwell's meticulous scholarship reveals the continuous history of the wind ensemble, from its earliest roots to the nineteenth century - an unbroken tradition of wind music that music scholars have never been fully able to appreciate until now.
