Study Guides
The following study guides are part of a work in progress, a manual of intercultural music making titled 'Orchestrating the World. All materials here are the property of the Vancouver Inter-Cultural Orchestra, and may be utilized for personal education purposes only.
There are two kinds of entries - the guides marked 'general interest' are for laypeople, composers, and musicians alike. Those marked 'composers and musicians' have everything the general interest guides have, but in addition have technical information beyond the grasp of most non-musicians.
Further we have categorized the guides into non-western cultural interest areas, to whatever extent possible.
