Reviews

Daniel Scher Paper and Harmony was a landmark book when first published nearly 20 years ago. Featuring ingenious and fun folding sequences that paired instrumentalists with their instruments, it was (and remains) the only origami collection that allows you to create your own origami band. With this new edition, the diagrams are now in color as are all the striking photos of the finished models. L de Souza Marc Kirschenbaum's book is a wonderful collection of origami models with a fantastic theme. The models are high intermediate in difficultly, but clearly diagrammed and should prove a pleasant challenge for experienced folders. The theme of all musicians is delightful and unique among origami collections! In addition, Mr. Kirschenbaum has prefaced each model with insights to his creative process as well as friendly folding tips which anticipate the trickier folding manoeuvres he's created. This really gives the books a personal touch and makes the diagrams much more accessible.
