Musicianship : Ear Training, Rhythmic Reading, and Sight Singing Book

For all the Broadway Theater lovers, this is a must read. The evolution of American musical theater, from its historical beginnings, is a phenomenon. We took something passed down from the Greeks to the Europeans, and we created something truly American that the world now enjoys. This book covers the history of Musical Theater from beginning to the 1990s, and is broken down into three parts: historical evolution, the creative players, (with their ideas and contributions), and the individual parts that make up the whole. We have gone from the "happy ever after" to the "down and dirty" social issues that plague many lives. This and more is all staged with elaborate sets/costumes, great music/lyrics, and comes with a hefty price tag--we are more than willing to pay. Read how and why in Richard's simply written book. I learned a lot about something I love--Musical Theater.
