Download or read book Music written by Roger Kamien and published by McGraw-Hill Companies. This book was released on 2006 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music: An Appreciation, sixth edition, is an exciting new revision of the most widely used text for the non-majors' introduction to music or music appreciation courses. Instructors have made Kamien's Music: An Appreciation the leading book because of its thorough coverage (including world music), because of its well-chosen examples (based on adopters' input), because of its unsurpassed supplements package (including multi-media software) and because of its easy-to-follow listening outlines (keyed to the recording packages). Non-majors especially appreciate that Kamien provides them with a variety of ways to follow the listening outlines: written descriptions, musical notation, time counts and CD tracks.
