The numerous problems arising from styles and techniques which are based upon improvisation and extramusical concepts are also considered. The purposes of this study will have been fulfilled if it serves as a stimulus toward further research in this fascinating, but, alas, quickly vanishing field. The presentation of Eastern notations may also provide some aesthetic pleasure from the study of unusual and often complex systems and symbols. —from the PrefaceCountry/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Music Dance & TheatreRelease Year: 2003 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
