Reviews:

Players of wind instruments have traditionally been shortchanged in their repertoire....This volume aims to fill that gap, and it does it admirably. No music library or professional wind player should be without this valuable resource.
—American Reference Books Annual
I suspect that even the most ardent collector of music will find something he doesn't know....make sure your library acquires it.
—Early Music Review
...Clark's survey and guide is a thorough, authoritative resource that should be acquired by studio teachers, professional musicians, and students, as well as by academic and public libraries that serve a music-oriented clientele.
—Reference & User Services Quarterly

Description: This annotated survey identifies and evaluates the published literature of chamber and concertante music originally conceived for wind instruments. Entries, arranged by instrument, are organized chronologically by genre to highlight the historical development of the works. Genres include single melody instrument with accompaniment, homogeneous groups, larger groupings with and without accompaniment, with and without other non-wind instruments, concertante works, and vocal music with wind instruments. Titles contain catalogue detail and current publisher's edition number. Musicians, music scholars, and educators will appreciate the addresses of music publishers and the extensive bibliography that serves as a guide for further research. In addition to a general index, information is easily cross-referenced through a composer index and an instrumentation index.
