Dennis Shrock, Editor
The GIA Historical Music Series, edited by Dennis Shrock, presents repertoire suitable
for performance by public school, college and university, church, and community
ensembles, with the purpose of making available to today’s conductors lesser-known
and previously difficult-to-procure historical masterpieces. The music, drawn from the
Renaissance through the Romantic eras, is in performance editions based on the most
current and rigorous scholarly research. The musical scores reflect original intent of
notation, with all editorial markings and emendations clearly identified as such. In
addition, preface material accompanying the music contains literal translations of foreign
language texts and information regarding the lives of the composers, genres, and
relevant performance practices.

more. In this remarkable book, a companion to Performance Practices in the Classical
Era, noted scholar and choral conductor Dennis Shrock brings together in one place
treatises, primers, tutorials, letters, prefaces, and essays from the period to paint a detailed
and informative portrait of this wonderful music as it was originally intended
and experienced.

The Classical era, from 1751 to the 1830s and beyond, is one of the most revolutionary
and creative times in the history of music. However, critical details about the
performance of music during this extraordinary time have too often been lost to generations
of re-interpretation, opinionated colorings, and changes in fashion and taste.
In this remarkable volume, noted scholar and choral conductor Dennis Shrock
brings together in one place writings from more than 100 Classical-era authors and
composers about performance practices of music during their time.
