First to be published in the series was The Art of French Horn Playing
by Philip Farkas, now Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Music at
Indiana University. In 1956, when Summy-Birchard published Farkas's
book, he was a solo horn player for the Chicago Symphony and had held
similar positions with other orchestras, including the Boston Symphony,
Cleveland Orchestra, and Kansas City Conservatory, DePaul University,
Northwestern University, and Roosevelt University in Chicago. The Art of
French Horn Playing set the pattern, and other books in the series soon
followed, offering help to students in learning to master their
instruments and achieve their goals.
