''An Introduction To Form And Instrumentation: For The Use Of Beginners In Composition'' is a book written by William Alexander Barrett and first published in 1879. The book is aimed at aspiring composers who are just starting out and provides a comprehensive guide to the basics of musical form and instrumentation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part covers musical form, including the various types of musical phrases, sections, and movements. It also includes discussions of harmony, tonality, and rhythm, as well as guidelines for creating effective musical structures. The second part of the book is devoted to instrumentation, focusing on the various families of instruments and their capabilities. It covers the basics of orchestration, including the principles of balance, blend, and contrast, and provides examples of effective orchestration from the works of famous composers. Throughout the book, Barrett provides numerous examples from the works of classical composers to illustrate his points, and includes exercises and questions to help the reader develop their own compositional skills. Overall, ''An Introduction To Form And Instrumentation'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning the basics of musical composition and orchestration, and remains a useful reference for composers and music students today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
