The purpose of this study was to develop a guide to help teach commercial music style imitation, Styles selected were ragtime, dixieland, Whiteman, Goodman, Miller, bop, Berry, Presley, Motown, hard rock, horn band, soft rock, straight ahead big band, Ellington, Basie, country rock, bluegrass, Country-Western, Mantovani, Boston Pops, and Love Unlimited Orchestra. Melody, harmony, rhythm, voicing, instrumentation, form, special effects, performance techniques, electronic alteration, and articulation were discussed for each style. A table summarizing each discussion, and an arrangement and recording of the same melody in each style were included, The guide appears successful, judging from commercial writers' estimations, The work will probably aid writers, performers, researchers, and publishers. Similar works could be done on other commercial and ethnic styles.

With a medium level of technical and interpretive difficulty, these arrangements of “Three Spirituals” are aimed at more advanced pianists. Lasting around 1½ to 2½ minutes each, the three movements are all fairly short and can be performed separately or – as recommended by the composer – in the order given here.:“Go Down, Moses” “Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child” “Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen” / Die Arrangements der hier vorliegenden Ausgabe von „Three Spirituals“ richten sich mit ihrem in spieltechnischer Hinsicht mittleren Schwierigkeitsgrad und ihren musikalischen Anforderungen an schon etwas fortgeschrittenere Klavierspieler. Mit einer Dauer von circa eineinhalb bis zweieinhalb Minuten haben alle drei Sätze eine überschaubare Länge und können sehr gern einzeln oder – empfehlenswerterweise – in der hier abgedruckten Reihenfolge vorgetragen werden.:“Go Down, Moses” “Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child” “Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen”
