Henri Kling’s treatise on tranposition for instrumentalists is subtitled “a practical and authoritative guide for all instruments, with special reference to the clarinet, cornet, trumpet, horn, and piano.” Originally published in German, this book has been translated into English by Gustav Saenger.

Kling states in his preface “there is no branch in th entire study of music which will benefit and advance a musician as much as the study of transposition.” I could not possibly agree more. This book takes you through the different methods behind mental transposition with a huge selection of real world orchestral examples to show you how to put it into practice. A wonderful volume that is a must have for any collection.
