Humorous caricatures parody the technical and specialized nomenclature found in the exclusive coterie of classical music. With this offbeat "dictionary," classically trained musicians will be able to translate terms such as Bottesini Grand Duo, Basso Continuo, and Con Ferre de Calza to their more simple definitions, the ones most musicians secretly harbor. Sho-mei Pelletier offers classical musicians a release from the serious task of music making in The Simple Dictionary for Classical Musicians: A Humorous Collection of Terms, Types, and Repertoire.
