The book that was too big to publish!
The author set out to create the most comprehensive account
of this subject ever written.
To make the book viable in this niche market,
publishers required substantial editing before going to print.
Performance Music would not compromise.
The solution was to produce the work digitally,
with all the handy navigational features that go with
the PDF format.

Launched in 2000, the new, extended volume
continues to sell all over the world.
