About

This website is primarily based on the text "Orchestration: A Practical Handbook" authored by Joseph Wagner (1900-1974). I find this book to be an invaluable resource for both beginning and more advanced orchestration students. This website uses MuseScore 4 to provide interactive scores from the book. In addition, I am adding examples from the literature I often use in teaching orchestration. Below is a link to the original book on archive.org. Use the site navigation to access the digitized version of the text.
