(Meredith Music Resource). This extension and expansion of Guide to Score Study ; co-authored with Robert Garofalo; examines the various stages conductors traverse in arriving at an interpretation. Battisti emphasizes the importance of the conductors imagination; personality and ongoing study weeks/months/years in developing an interpretation that is personal; well-informed and faithful to the composers expressive intent. He examines the score analysis process including the role and function of a works musical elements; the need to balance intellectual understanding and intuitive feelings about a piece and the challenges faced by conductors when transforming an interpretation into a performance. As examples; he traces the procedures he used in forming interpretations of "Lisbon" and "Horkstow Grange" from Graingers Lincolnshire Posy ; Coplands Down a Country Lane and "Sinfonia" from Stravinksys Octet for Wind Instruments.
