4-6Learning Musical Instruments series.
Operating on the theme that "music brings people together," these volumes introduce the histories, styles, technical details, and famous players of various musical instruments. The unfocused and sometimes redundant narratives wander, but instrument diagrams are concise and useful. "Recordings to Listen To" suggests particular versions of pieces for that instrument in different genres (usually classical, jazz, and one or two others). Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Learning Musical Instruments titles: Should I Play the Flute?, Should I Play the Piano?, Should I Play the Drums?, Should I Play the Trumpet?, Should I Play the Clarinet?, Should I Play the Guitar?, and Should I Play the Violin?
