Title: Not a bad little book...
Review: I liked this little book. I used it out of necessity when I found myself writing a couple of jazz tunes for an 8 peice band (first time I had to write & orchestrate like that). There are alot of quick and useful theory tips. Russo mostly deals with orchestration & voicing for a group with a sizeable horn section which, by the way, I did not have. I did, however, manage to glean enough information from the text to assemble some great music. The section on upright bass was wonderful. A lot of information for a little money!
