Review

After accepting an invitation to adjudicate a festival in Canada, Burch-Pesses made some surprising musical discoveries. "As the festival progressed I began to feel that I wasn't just visiting another country, but had entered another world where the band literature was unknown to me. I decided that if I knew so little about Canadian band music, the same was true for other American directors." Out of that initial thought developed this new publication, which contains biographies of 63 Canadian composers and more than 200 of their most notable compositions. With pieces at every grade level, this impressive new volume will help directors attempting to learn more about Canadian music and vary their programming. --Instrumentalist Magazine, April 2008, pg. 8
