"Due to its practical information and succinct writing style, The Pianist's Dictionary is an essential reference book for the busy pianist and piano teacher. After the publication of the first edition, it quickly occupied a prominent place on my desk. The additions to this updated second edition bring it up-to-date and make the volume even more useful to both professionals and amateurs."E. L. Lancaster, Alfred Music "Roberts's update and expansion of this classic resource is impressive in scope and meticulously researched.  All serious piano teachers and performers will want a copy at their fingertips."Gregory Partain, Transylvania University "Wesley Roberts brings pianists an impressive and significant second edition update of Hinson's original book in what might be considered "A Dictionary of All Things Related to the Piano." This new edition is a go-to source for piano scholars and students for quick information on musical terms, pianists, major works in the piano repertoire, piano manufacturers, and more. This second edition is comprehensive, easy to use, and provides a wealth of information for the researcher, student, and teacher. It is a must for any serious pianist's library."Jane Magrath, University of Oklahoma "Informative, insightful, and indispensable, The Pianist's Dictionary, by Maurice Hinson and Wesley Roberts, deserves a spot close at hand for pianists and teachers everywhere. Now in a new second edition, it provides quick answers when needed, along with food for thought. Well worthwhile!"Peter Amstutz, West Virginia University "This volume is certainly an invaluable companion to all pianists and teachers as an aide-memoire and mini encyclopaedia on all things musical. Ideal for compliling programme notes, personal research, score study and teaching, this excellent musical dictionary is a must for all pianists."European Piano Teachers Association
