- Summary:
- The Pianist's Dictionary is a handy and practical reference dictionary aimed specifically at pianists, teachers, students, and concertgoers. Prepared by Maurice Hinson, the best-selling author of the Guide to the Pianist's Repertoire, the work explains pianistic terms and performance directions clearly and concisely with illustrations and brief musical examples. Hinson includes succinct entries concerning famous piano pieces and composers, leading performers and teachers, and piano makers-making The Pianist's Dictionary the perfect reference for compiling program and liner notes. The Pianist's Dictionary collects many of Hinson's most useful ideas that have appeared in his popular lectures and masterclasses over the years, and have not been published elsewhere.
