The Musicians Guide Anthology

The Anthology includes over 100 pieces featured in the text, now expanded with more counterpoint, nineteenth-century chromatic music, and twentieth-century impressionist and modernist works.

The Anthology features music for all standard instruments and ensembles so that all students have the opportunity to study works composed for their instruments. This edition also features a new chronological index and short prose headnotes to each score, placing works in their historical context.
