Plan Would Necessitate Greater Versatility of Musicians
Sam Lanin advocates a new orchestral plan to broaden instrumentation. He argues American music blends many nationalities and should use instruments from different cultures to reflect each mood. He cites the balalaika, guitar, and steel guitar as examples to enrich performances without enlarging the orchestra. He notes 80 percent of Americans favor popular music when arranged for varied instrumentation. He highlights his large fan mail and record achievements as evidence of impact.
