Classical Guitar Making: A Modern Approach to Traditional Design
from Sterling
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:

If it weren't for the fact that this is a step-by-step manual, the causual observer could be forgiven for mistaking this for a coffee-table book. It's almost too nice for a workbench! At the risk of sounding like an advertising blurb, the same passion and craftsmanship Bogdanovich displays in his... more info

Easy Classics To Moderns: (MFM 17) (Music for Millions)
from Amsco Publications
Price: $13.67

Customer Review:

I bought this book over 35 years ago when I started to teach myself piano. As a young teen I would have been bored by the "Twinkle, twinkle" type music books. Within weeks I was able to play recognizable classical melodies, and yet the pieces were challenging enough that I could work in this book... more info

Twentieth-Century Music: A History of Musical Style in Modern Europe and America (Norton Introduction to Music History)
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $58.56

Customer Review:

Morgan's book is the best that I have found for an overview of the entire 20th century in "classical" music. He divides his analysis into 3 logical sections:

Part 1. Beyond Tonality: From 1900 to World War I

Part 2. Reconstruction and New Systems: Between the Wars

Part 3.... more info

The Cecchetti Method of Classical Ballet: Theory and Technique
from Dover Publications
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

Believe me, this is a book well worth adding to your library. It is as specific in detail as both the Kirov and Bolshoi 'lessons in classical ballet' manuals. Cecchetti classes are named after the days of the week so on any day the teacher would announce that 'today we are doing the Tuesday class'.... more info

Classics to Moderns in the Intermediate Grade (Music for Millions, Vol 37)
from Amsco Publications
Price: $12.56

Customer Review:

My son uses this book. Pieces are not equal in their complexity. My child plays the two "Bagatelles" by Beethoven, Sibelius and similar in difficulty pieces. One can find texts that are much easier than the ones I mentioned in this book. I also love this book as it reminds me of the time when I... more info

A Modern Method for Guitar - Volume 1
from Berklee Press Publications
Price: $11.96

Customer Review:

The Berklee guitar books could very well be the best comprehensive method out there. This is the first of three books. The DVD is a big help because it lets the student hear and see the exercises along with reading them. Anyone who takes the time and exercises the discipline to give the Berklee... more info
