The Interpretation of Music
Template:Short description Template:Italic title The Interpretation of Music is a book by Thurston Dart. It is described by the Encyclopædia Britannica as "the best direct and concise account of the issues of performance".[1]
This book deals with correct performance conventions and procedures relevant to different periods and styles (for example Gregorian intonation, divisions upon parts, French baroque over-dotting, etc.). It covers these various topics in a chronological order, also giving descriptions of period instruments and their uses.
